    Connoisseurs of Carcassone

    In this episode HTBYKABG crafts creative and killer strategies for the EUro-Style Board Game Carcassone. Brought into being by Klaus Jürgen Wrede and Hans im Glück, Carcassonne is the second of the “Big Four” Eurogames. Relatively quick to play, Carcassonne offers plenty of catharsis, from the satisfaction of completing a project of your own to the schadenfreude of sabotaging your opponents’ plans. Learn how to build effective roads and cities, snake onto your opponents’ projects, and utilize the throughput mindset to maximize your Meeple.
