Thanks for sharing this with us.

I never much liked the pinky box of the old edition.  I really like the artwork for this box!

I like the HiG-Logo on the flag, but putting it twice on the box, and the second time right next to it, doesn't look that great. I think, it's a missed opportunity, because integrating a logo into the artwork is a nice touch, but should be done in a way, that it can stand on it's own.

I wonder what the Z-man and 999-games editions will look like!

I agree 100%!

The German rules aren't finished yet. So no - we have no release date in the next few weeks.

Danke schön / Thank you for "time" - we'll be yearning for it in 2017.
Just a day before ordered Carcassonne: Die Wachtürme (Mini expansion) in the new illustration line.
Best wishes  :black1-meeple:

In the rules for the 8th expansion for Carcassonne II:

"Auf einem Plättchen darf nur 1 Brücke stehen." = Only one bridge can stand on a tile.

That means the question if 2 bridges might be crossing onto a tile(see the FAQ in the CAR) is no more necessary.
--------------------
The begin of the bazaar round is now clear in point 4 (after 1. place a tile, 2. place a meeple, 3. score)
--------------------
At page 6 there are again the gameplay with other expasions.

No it is not online yet - not at HiG, Schmidt Spiele or at CarcF.

But I have the 8th expansion at home now and can read the rules.

Ordered this yesterday. Looking forward to receiving it as I'm inquisitive about how the castle tokens will look. I've never been a fan of the artwork on the original bazaars either. Hopefully the new version will look better.

It seems Z-Man is catching up to HiG in terms of expansions so I'm hoping this means we will be getting an announcement for Hills & Sheep soon in English New Art.

In Czech Republic they already have Hills&Sheeps for I don't know how long. BCB expansion came out there more or less in 2 months after German premiere. Polish 8th came out in the middle of April (so we have a little bit more than 6 moths)... and they announced 9th to be somewhere in December :(

Hello Carcassonne Central, my first post.

As i heard from seller about 9th expansion in Poland, polish publisher probably want people to wait much longer to make bigger impact during release and earn more money :). Also, they don't want to overfeed us with expansions.

Greedy ones  ;D , im still waiting for my 9th expansion in new edition. Luckily they released these fruit-bearing trees to make waiting a bit easier :)

Hi Tazol,

True. Long time of waiting made me act like crazy with my latest orders... but till December I'll try to ease my nerves and try (finally) to print some tiles.

This is exciting. Hopefully ZMAN release will have the tiles fixed.

If anybody gets Bridges Castles & Bazaars (English - Z-MAN Games) New Edition, can they please confirm whether or not they fixed the 2 tiles misprint that exists with the German HiG edition. Thanks.

I just got it, but I am not sure what misprint you are talking about. Can you link me somewhere and I can confirm it?

Compare the old art tiles and new art tiles on this list from Cundo (https://cundco.de/media/pdf/1c/42/f6/Liste-2018.pdf). I don’t read German, but google translate does the job for me.

Here is the text on the tile spaces [translated with google translate] -> proper grammer:
[This tile is missing. That's it the tile C2-BBBE twice available.] -> This tile is missing. Instead, there are 2 copies of the tile C2-BBBE
[This tile is missing. That's it the tile C2-BBBJ twice available.] -> This tile is missing. Instead, there are 2 copies of the tile C2-BBBJ
B8C & B8I are the images of the tiles from the old art that are missing.
