Carcassonne Tile Tower As we are aproaching Christmas, you may be looking for the perfect gift for the player who has everything.
This acrylic tower will solve the problem of different tile backs between your original set and the new expansions. I still prefer a cloth bag, but some people don't enjoy receiving soft packages. It comes in 6 colors, is easy to assemble, fits inside the box and is sold by Mike Reinberger & Walter Jentsch GBR for 15 Euro. Visit www.kartentower.de for more info. | |

| Sid Sackson 1920-2002 One of the greatest designers of all time passed away on November 6th after longer illness. Most widely known for his games Acquire and Can't Stop he became one of the grandfathers of modern German gaming together with Alex Randolph (Twixt) due to the influential series of bookcase games published by 3M in the 60īs. These games has been quoted by several of the men active in the German industry today as a source of inspiration, and the best games of Sid Sackson has only been published in Germany, including my favorites: Metropolis and Kohle, Knies & Knete. Visit the site of Bob Claster for a tribute to The Great Games of Sid Sackson. | |

| Board Game Auction: The Sid Sackson Collection The collection of 10.000 printed games (no prototypes) and 500 books are to be sold at auctions November 15th + 16th at North River Auction Hall, New Jersey USA. The games are being sold in lots, and some of us find it sad that one of the greatest collection of games will not be kept intact. Should you have the financial clout to propose a serious bid for the entire collection will I be more than happy to put you in touch with Dale Freedman, daughter of the designer. Sid Sackson is living in a nursing home, suffering from Alzheimer's. | |
