Wow, Spielbox has been rather productive with Carcassonne. Is this one a year?

I'm excited. Spielbox expansions are always interesting. They seem to create strange, yet appropriate ideas.

My official email from Spielbox reads like this: "Preadvise: We are very pleased to let you know that we will have 2-3 add-ons in no. 5/2013. One of them will be a new mini-expansion in cooperation with Hans im Glueck for Carcassonne! You will get more information about the name and the other add-ons in the next newsletter middle/end of September. Of course you can pre-order from now on in our webshop www.spielbox-shop.com."

I do hope that it's not a bad translation or something so that the mini-expansion really is FOR Carcassonne and not just a cooperation with Hans im Glueck for something else.

I can't wait to see what they come up with- plague is one of my favourites. And now I can save on shipping when I buy little buildings

I kinda wish I had waited on my little buildings now. Just got them last week.

I've only played the plague twice but I would say its the best mini expansion I've played yet. Hoping the new one is of a similar calibre

wicke · « **Reply #7 on:** August 29, 2013, 09:45:47 AM »

In my opinion River, King, Count, River II, School, Flier and Messages all are better than the Plague.
Those "negative" expansions like the Dragon, Tower and Plague among others have never been my favorites.
And all those small tokens doesn't look good either.

CKorfmann · « **Reply #8 on:** August 29, 2013, 09:57:27 AM »

I have never actually played with the Plague. I think I need to have a game soon where I play all the rest of the ones I've yet to play now that I have them all.

Wouldn't surprise me if it's The Windrose...?

The Wind Roses will come to the CundCo Shop this autumn.

Maik (maik63de - admin at CarcF) wrote today to Barbara Nostheide - Spielbox.

He asked her about the thoughts at BGG (and now here at CarcC).

Should the Wind Roses included in the Spielbox 05 2013?

Here is her answer:

Quote

Ich glaube nicht, dass es das ist, was da steht, denn eine Ankuendigung ueber den Namen gibt es noch nirgendwo (wenn wir das nicht mal haben ...).

Quote

I don't think so that this is meant to what is written there, because an announcement about the name is still nowhere there (when we don't even have that...).

You're right... I meant to clarify I think it's the best as a mini expansion to be played with just the base game. The other minis seem to complement each other, whilst the Plague is a big game changer

I am in the same boat, CKorfmann! Many official expansions yet to try, as well as all the gold here on CarcassonneCentral..!!!
