I believe that most of them are in the CAR, near the end of the document. Don't know if they are in the latest beta, but they are in 4.1, which is available from the Carcassonne Central website.

hello,

sorry, i'm new to this so i had to find out what exactly "car" means at first. its really a great document! but i was more or less on the search of the variants which includes new tiles. for example the fischerhütte variant (http://www.naturelich.com/games/archives/2005/09/fischerhuette_t.html) is linked to the official page but i cant find a valid link for this after this page is offline meanwhile. i also tried to contact hans im glück several times but they dont reply to me (meanwhile i found another fishing hut tile request in this board but unfortunatelly the files did not get posted there but sent via pm).

greetings purity

I can't help you about the HiG page variants, but you can have a look at what we have at

The other place I can think of is BGG.  Take a look at the "Files" section at http://www.boardgamegeek.com/game/822

Edit: If you search around http://www.portlandgamers.com/Default.asp , you may also find some rather good Carc stuff there.

good hint, i could even access the page out of the archive of the wayback machine ... unfortunatelly each zip archive wether it has been of 2005 or 2007 or whatever is some kind of broken :-(. i think i just have to wait, might be someone still has the file and can send it to me ... anyway, thanks again for your help.

Open the file in a hex-editor and append two null characters at the end. Save and you have an intact zip archive.
If you are on Linux, it is even easier: echo -e “\0″ >> filename

its just gantry@ this domain.  Technically possible but easier to keep organized if we have 1 or 2 ppl doing the filing.
