Title: Carcassonne: Corn Circles, Plague & Tunnels
Post by: bmadccp on October 18, 2013, 08:45:28 AM
Hello everyone, I'm new to the forum and a novice Carcassonne player. I do apologize if this questions has been asked/answered elsewhere in the forum. If so, maybe one of you can point me to the thread.

The question is: What's the scoop with "Corn Circles, Plague and Tunnels" expansion? Is it available? I've been searching for it all morning and can't find it.

Can anyone fill me in on the status and availability of this expansion?

That expansion was cut unfortunately.. RGG didn't get it out in time before Z-man took over the English market. I found a thread that speaks on it but I believe the other threads were on the old forum:

You probably know they are available separately
Corn circles 1 is hard to find, I just got the new 6 mini's once you've got all 6 you'll own Corn Circles 2 (the updated version)
Plague is easy to find on ebay for about $18, people are still selling the issue of Spielbox mag new & it comes inside.
Tunnels is hard to find too, I've seen it come up on ebay twice since I've been watching.  I bought one for $50

You can also pick up some sticker paper and print all the pieces you need from the art here or on www.boardgamegeek.com that's how I made the La Porxada expantion that I couldn't find anywhere.

I saw this was announced by Rio Grande, and that it was cancelled when Z-man took over publishing rights, any chance that Z-man will end up publishing this, or something close to it? Anyone know anything about this at all?  I am rather new to the great game of Carcassonne, and I am trying to catch up....... I am trying to get Crop circles I and Tunnels, and the cost that people are asking is "pricey" to say the least!

"Crop/Corn Circles 1" is the most difficult expansion to get, IMO, even more than Cathars. You could find The tunnel at ebay.de

Plague and Tunnel are Spielbox expansions, so Z-Man Games does not have permission to print them as part of their license with HiG.

I'm not sure if "Crop Circles" is the most difficult expansion to get. You can find some (unfortunatelly very expensive) on ebay or so, but Tunnels - i didn't find any item to buy so far...

Isn't Crop Circles just included when you get the 6 minis? Should only be 6 tiles.. Included with each of the 6 minis I thought.. It's the 7th official mini expansion.

Crop Circles I is the one that cost more and slightly different than II version which comes with the 6 mini combined (or Big Box 4).

Hello everyone,

I guess this version never was made?  Or was it?  If it was, it would be the holy grail of Carcassonne-lovers like us, I guess?  :yellow-meeple:

By the way, nice artwork BUT the symbol of the expansion is the same as the bridge from bridges, castles and bazaars?

What a shame!  If it did, i could hunt down Corn Circles1 and the Tunnels in 1 step...  :yellow-meeple:
