Board Game Arena

There will probably eventually be some Carcassonne expansions here, and I would like to make this suggestion in advance, so that the devs are thinking about it during creating, rather than trying to fit it in after release:

For each expansion, allow the expansion to be on, off, or 'just the cards'. This last option would add in the crds for the expansion, but leave all the rules and other extra pieces out.

I'm not sure how popular this position is, but, personally I LOVE having lots of carcassonne cards with lots of the odd shaped roads and city bits on them, but I don't like any of the actual expansion rules. I prefer to include all the cards, but stick to standard rules. In my group, we shuffle all of the cards from the standard set and all of the expansions (except the rivers, of course), then randomly chose out the standard number of cards from among the piles. I'd love to be able to play that way on BGA, when the time comes for expansions.

I hope I'm not the only one who feels that way.

Wow, maybe I am the only one who feels this way!

I like this idea, even though I haven't actually played Carcassonne on here yet, as this is a way I have enjoyed playing in real life. I don't think it is an 'official variant' endorsed in a rule book or by the game designer/owner though, so I doubt they will implement it. I just hope they add Catapult someday...

gross.

Great idea cb, bumping.

Yay! I'm happy that this was enacted.

Just a comment on this : we don't always answer to suggestions, but at least we read all of them
