This is next on my build list, I've just finished the Lake. When I went to print the tiles off, I couldn't get them to be the right size, they were opening up as 1 5/8 inches. Is there any way to get the Ocean tiles as a PDF so that the size is fixed?

I do so covet these gorgeous tiles.... Fish

Try messing with the printer zoom or the fit to page options.  If that doesn't work I'll try to convert a few to see how they look.  Thanks for the interest, your in for a big project!

The pnp guild at BGG had some suggestions about printing these tiles, which I used to make a quick fix for my own use.

In short, I resized the file to 8.5x11 inches, resolution 150 dpi, and cropped about 1/2 inch off the top (just to the top of the C in Carcassonne) and then saved it all as a pdf. Worked a treat.

Here's the thread at BGG: http://www.boardgamegeek.com/article/4441766#4441766

Thanks so much to Skipboris for making these lovely tiles  Smiley, we are about to be snowed in and I'm looking forward to a nice indoor project!

I made boats in Sculpy last week, I'd never worked with it before. They turned out OK, but very basic.

It is quite an undertaking to make all the tiles, but hopefully it's worth it!  Let me know how your first game goes.

Hey skip, I noticed that the Deltas file is titled #26.  If that's acurate, I'm missing 20-25.  Did I do something wrong?

Never mind, I see that Buried Treasure hasn't gone up yet.

You can get Buried Treasure from the forum thread link.  It's hosted on Mediafire.  But that only has tile sheets 20-24.  Sheet 25 is a new, much more weighty expansion that I'm not finished with yet.  Deltas was just a quick idea I had that gave me an excuse to make the catapult tiles as well.  What do you think, should I stop at 300 tiles?  Smiley
