Played it a few times now and really enjoyed it.
I agree. It really is a great version of Carc. I prefer the temple and farmer mechanics than the original Carc. I recieved this game just before Christmas and mine came with a wooden Ark.
You have the second edition of the game. Have not compared Joffs rules with the rules in the box yet, but planning to see if theres any differences.
Great stuff. Any discrepancies, please post them for me. The second edition changes are mentioned in the annotations.

Time for some thread archaeology...
I'm reading through the AotC CAR to refresh myself on the rules, and quickly noticing that the main text is first edition with the second edition changes in the footnotes. I'm thinking this should be the other way around: main text as second edition and changes from first edition in the footnotes.

Well, a friend of mine managed to get a copy for me for Christmas. Do you still have the CAR available at all? Have played it once and enjoyed it so planning on playing again soon.

Yes. You need to access the Downloads section of the site. Go to the Home Page and hover over the 'Downloads' button. From the drop down menu that appears, click on the 'Other Spin-Offs'. The 'Complete Annotated Rules for Ark of the Covenant' are accessible from this page.

If anyone interested, I can offer a original sealed(!) German version of the game ("Die Baumeister des Königs"). The box doesn't show any damages. It is like 'fresh from the shop'.

When it first came to my mind, it wasn't. And then when I thought about it, I was like ..... that's a nice pun  And then I decided to write it anyway. So eventually .... pun intended, yeah |

Is this game rare? I saw one at the gaming store I went to a few weekends ago and grabbed it because it just looked like a variant of Carc. I got it for like $22 or so. I kind of like the subtle differences in scoring. We have yet to play it, but I think I will like the farming with the sheep and wolves.
Nevermind, I see the CAR is the super set of rules...I'll be quiet now.

Yes, it is rare. It went out of print almost three years ago now. I believe the company closed down.

BUt you can still get it for little money. Last week 2 copies were sold on eBay Germany for about less than €10. Check this item 320640633353.
And I also bought a new in shrink copy from a publisher for about €23 including p+p.

Oh. I ignorantly assumed it was by the same people that did Carc. Interesting. Well, if I ever see another I'll snag it I suppose; maybe try to get it to somebody on here who would want it. I'll keep my eyes open now. |
