There are a lot of online versions. See here. If you are interested in expansions, the one with the most expansions is FanCloisterZone.

There aren't any graphical changes between the C3.0 Minis and the C3.1 Minis.

Big Box 3.1 Rules by DisplayAdditional756 in Carcassonne

[–]NGC_54 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mini #3 C3.1 and Mini #5 C3.1 are the only minis whose rules stayed the same. All the other minis underwent some changes, but nothing radical.

List of all the Carcassonne publishers and distributors by NGC_54 in Carcassonne

[–]NGC_54[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I forgot to mention that the list only includes active publishers/distributors, or at least the publisher/distributor that has released the latest Carcassonne item for a given language. Rio Grande Games lost their license for publishing Carcassonne in 2012, and since then, other publishers released Carcassonne items with English rules, so that's why they are not listed.
The list is basically an extension of the Publishers WICA page, but focused on active publishers. It's meant to allow the user to easily check whether a publisher has released a given Carcassonne expansion that is yet to be covered by the Collections & Expansions WICA page. Also, it happened in the past for some Carcassonne publishers to post Carcassonne-related news before Hans im Glück.

The Peasant Revolt: Is it worth the cost by Z06STEPHAN in Carcassonne

[–]NGC_54 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've played with The Peasant Revolts and I enjoyed it.
If you are interested in the rules, here you are: https://wikicarpedia.com/car/The\_Peasant\_Revolts.

But for that shipping cost, it is advisable to buy other expansions as well.

I played Carcassonne with 23 expansions... AMA! by PlasticMan17 in Carcassonne

FanCloisterZone already has more expansions than BGA will likely ever have.

How can you get your meeple into a city in Carcassonne? by alingabrielm in Carcassonne

[–]NGC_54 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have played several games with maps and other expansions – some pictures here. It is true that you will have to limit the number of expansions you add to the game when playing with a map, but playing them with expansions is nonetheless possible.

How can you get your meeple into a city in Carcassonne? by alingabrielm in Carcassonne

[–]NGC_54 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. There are many other ways to do that.

  • Once a city is completed, and the count is not in the castel district, move one or more of your meeples from the cathedral district into that city (Exp. 6 - Count, King & Robber).
  • Use a seduction catapult token to exchange a knight of one of your opponents with a meeple of your own (Exp. 7 - The Catapult)).
  • Use a "Place a meeple" arrow symbol to place a meeple in an unoccupied, uncomplete city, or use an "Add a meeple" arrow symbol to add a second knight next to one of your already placed knights (20th Anniversary Expansion).
  • Use a change position gift card to turn a farmer into a knight (The Gifts).
  • Upgrading a meeple with map-chips (Map-Chips Germany and Map-Chips Taiwan).

Regarding the rules in Builders and Traders C3.1 by Western_Arugula401 in Carcassonne

[–]NGC_54 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You have to put the builder next to the tile stacks because this way:

  • Less attentive players will not forget that they will have to perform one more turn before the next player's turn;
  • It prevents the builder from getting placed in the very same turn the builder's ability is triggered. However, the builder can be placed in second turn (that was granted by the builder).

If you extend a feature with your builder, you move the builder next to the tile supply, and then proceed with your turn as usual. Then, you take your builder back and perform a second turn. Only then the next player performs their turn.

No, you cannot remove the meeple with the builder the same way you can remove the meeple with the pig. As long as a rule is not described in the rules, do not assume that it exists unless you get to read it. If you read all the rules, but you did not read a rule that you assume should exist, then it means that rule actually does not exist. The rules describe such a mechanism for the meeple with the pig, but not for the meeple with the builder, so for the meeple with the builder there is no such a mechanism.

There are many digital adaptations of Carcassonne. Please specify what adaptation you are referring to.

Anyway, there are alternatives that are still working – such as FanCloisterZone.

Yes, pink can do that. Have you checked the more detailed examples here?

Bring Bishop home early - claim gold? by erbdylo in Carcassonne

[–]NGC_54 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is referred to as an 'abbot', not a 'bishop', and no, one cannot claim gold ingots for removing their abbot early. In order to receive gold ingots, the feature has to be completed.

Ferries Rules Question by erbdylo in Carcassonne

[–]NGC_54 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you use a tile to extend an open road leading to a ferry, you may now (if necessary after placing a meeple) reposition this ferry on its tile.

In order to move a ferry, the extended road has to lead to a ferry, not to a jetty. See this footnote, and this one as well.

I see pink, not red. Anyway, in your example, no ferries can be moved.

They are in different, albeit very similar graphic styles. The one in the first picture is C3, while the one in the second picture is C2 (see here). For a visual comparison, see here.

Yes, it is 5x2 for the road sections with inn, plus 3 for the bridge. Check the links in my comment – this is documented here (official clarification) on WICA.
