Carcassonne: The Tower
While convenient and cool looking the new landscape tile dispenser that comes with The Tower Expansion can give a player, looking for an advantage, the opportunity they are seeking. Without trying it is easy for a player to observe whether the front side of the landscape tile has either a road, city, or pasture. The player can then decided to draw from either the left or right stack of the tower. This drastically improves his odds of getting the tile he needs. Best alternative is to use a cloth bag, like the one included in the Traders and Builders Expansion, or have everyone in the gaming group start by drawing all the tiles from a predetermined side of the tower first.
