This video covers strategies and tactics for Carcassonne by Klaus-Jurgen Wrede. A more in-depth text analysis can be found on www.theforbiddenlimb.com. @ForbiddenLimb
My quick tips: 1. Whenever possible, place tiles that will score multiple features. 2. Don't claim a road unless it has at least 3 tiles and hopefully one end tile. 3. For Abbeys follow #1 above, if not, place it so your opponent is incentivized to help you. 4. Try to get in on large cities and really long roads if possible. 5. Know which tiles do not exist so that you can make features difficult or impossible for your opponents to finish, especially cities as they will be worth half as much unfinished.
There's some new growth for Settlers of Catan strategy content but oddly very little recent Carcassonne based on one yt search. anyone know of more recent strategy /gameplay content channels?
Great video! Learning how to playing from trials and error, and your video helps me get a clearer look at the bigger picture

One of my favorite games right now. Can't wait to use some of the stategies. Keep making great videos.

how much pieces[□]/with drawings /is in game?
This actually made me like the game a bit more.
legit
A 2 tile citie is 2 points they have to be 3 tiles to count as 2 points per tile
changed in the latest versions. 2 tile city is 4 points.
That changed many years ago. For a long time now, even 2-tile cities are worth 2 points per tile.
oh how i love stealing big city's in this game :D
