The first printed versions of the Second Edition of Carcassonne ({{Year|2014}}-{{Year|2016}}) featured a darker brown colour to the base for the cities. This was also used for the first two major expansions ([[Inns and Cathedrals|Inns and Cathedrals]], and [[Traders and Builders|Traders and Builders]]) as well as some of the promotional items available at that time. [According to several posts on Carcassonne Central Forum] KJW requested that this be lightened, and since then all new releases (from [[The Princess and The Dragon|The Princess and the Dragon]] onwards), and subsequent re-printing of the base game and the first two expansions, have featured the lighter coloured cities. | The first printed versions of the Second Edition of Carcassonne ({{Year|2014}}-{{Year|2016}}) featured a darker brown colour to the base for the cities.
