I'm working on going this year as well. As long as things go to plan, should be there Thursday through Saturday. Just got to iron out a few details...
PM me for for a list of remaining items from the Carcassonne Shoppe.

We will get some admission tickets for the Spiel 2014 in Essen - One day tickets - for both forums (CarcassonneCentral and Carcassonne-Forum).

Who likes to have a one-day-ticket?

As I remember correctly, one is reserved for me?  ::)

Just had an email conversation with Barbara from Spielbox and it looks like they might be willing to start reprinting some of their older expansions if there's demand... I know I'd be grateful if they reprinted Tunnels and I'm sure Cathars and Plague are also in demand.  If someone going to Essen could bring it up with them maybe we'll get somewhere with them and maybe even get rule clarifications with a reprint to finally answer our questions! Here is a segment of our email conversation.

That would be great being able to get our hands on some of those expansions again. Regardless of how people feel about the expansions themselves it would at least stop them from going for hugely inflated prices on eBay.

I was of the impression that Spielbox had already decided never to reprint any of these expansions though?

Maybe I'm wrong, but it looks as though The Plague is still available for a fair price if you get it directly from Spieblox:

That is an enchanting thought, a bit like picking up a social disease if you go to the wrong end of town. :-[ :-[

Reprints!

Oh say it is so. I'll buy ten copies of Die Tunnels, a vow I make here and now. They are so great for fan expansions and variants. This is the one expansion I want so bad but there is no way I am going to pay any ridiculous price for it.

So the question remains: Who is going to Essen to talk to Spielbox about this?

Will there be any specials other than the Darmstadt one? On any of those stands?
