Title: Intresting Facts About The New Big Box
Post by: InTheDark on January 22, 2018, 04:29:14 PM
I received the new Big Box as well as some other spin-offs, expansions and mini expansions for Christmas. And something that find I interesting is the differences within the big box. There are 3 different road designs, 2 different field colors and yet all the cities colors match up. The tiles from the first 2 expansions also don't match my original separate copies. Also it comes with not 6, not 7, but 8 point tiles. Also they are classified as part of the base game. Although it was what I was expecting I was still disappointed to see no tile bag in the box.

Also does anyone know when expansion 4,6,8 and 9 are being released in English for the new art?
Thanks :)!

I've got the new big box as well, but didn't see those little differences to be honest  ;D
The other big expansions have mostly already come out in Germany from HiG. Expansion 4,5,6 and 8 have all been released in the new art; expansion 9 is expected for this year

I'm only really interested in the English editions so do you know when they are being released?

Only Z-man has this information and they don't provide us with any insider knowledge.

All that is known is The Tower (exp 4) is "On the Boat"

That is why I asked you where you got your copy because I didn't realize I was in German.
I saw that on their website but I also read on a post somewhere that it's going to be released on Feb 2.
