inlandempireWhat house rule did you add that was more interesting than a game's standard rule ?
ThrowawayPermanenteIn Carcassonne you should draw a tile at the end of your turn, not the beginning. This helps with a bunch of other games, too.
This is truly the only why into play. It speeds the game up tremendously AND you can be mad when someone takes the spot you were eyeballing. 100% better.
BGA has a great Carcassonne variant where you have a hand of three tiles to choose from, makes the game so much more strategic
