- Carcassonne:
The Flier –
eight
landscape tiles showing a pair of wings are mixed with the other tiles to be
used in the game. As flying enthusiasts, the players want to actualize
mankind’s dream of flying by trying their wings. Flight length and landing
places can be troublesome.

The Messages –
eight
message tiles and six new followers. Players gain a second scoring meeple to aid
in securing messages. Messages and grant additional points for smallest road,
city or cloister, banners in a city, or knights… many possibilities. You may
even get to draw and play an additional tile. - Carcassonne:
The Ferries – eight
landscape tiles and eight ferries. Some roads around Carcassonne
lead to small lakes. In these places ferries are operated to connect the roads
on one side of the lake to the roads on the other side. These present new
opportunities for the players. - Carcassonne:
The Goldmines – eight landscape tiles and sixteen gold bars. Gold! The excitement is huge and
many come to acquire the precious metal for themselves. At the end, all will
settle their accounts. - Carcassonne:
Mage & Witch – eight
landscape tiles and two wooden figures. Magical people visit the county of
Carcassonne. While the
power of the mage brings extra value for roads and cities, the inhabitants view
the abilities of the witch rather distrustfully. - Carcassonne:
The Robber – eight
landscape tiles and six wooden robbers. Gangs of robbers are on the way and
require their tribute. When followers score points, the robbers take some
points for themselves.
