The miniexpansion is simple and with simple rules. The rules are simpler than those for messages (a combination of gifts and messages would be interesting) or the city of Carcassonne. The bonuses are simple and easy to us, but it would be annoying to reshuffle the tower dispenser.

Gifts are opened before placing a tile in 1. Placing a tile. Messages are received after 3. Scoring a feature only (as per the last clarifications). So no side effects for the time being.
WICA does not reflect that: https://wikicarpedia.com/index.php/The_Messages#Rounds_of_Scoring.

Not yet as I was waiting.... *really?*... for a bunch of official clarifications affecting Messages.

Should I stop waiting?  :o

Road sweeper and inns... a strategical move.

If HiG confirms the scenario used to score the road: during the game or after the game? For the base game, both scenarios are the same for roads, but...

"This expansion was developed for the Carcassonne base game and its rules still apply. You can combine The Gifts with
other expansions; however, there will be no official rules for these combinations. "

Of course.

Prime Directive! Prime Directive!!!  :o

It's already listed, but not yet available. This is common for the new things released at Spiel.
The team have probably been busy returning from Spiel and unpacking, inventory etc.
Expectations are for this new mini expansion to be available in the next few days

Who is in a hurry anyway?

You can play The Gifts with proxy tokens or whatever drawn from a bag, for example.

That's what I am waiting on as well. Don't want to pay shipping twice for small extras ;)

I'm hoping for one new mini and waiting for the Spiel '21. With a mini, I should just be over €20. I hope they don't push the limit to €25 or higher, though, because there's really nothing else I want. My cart currently has The Gifts, the two 20th Anniversary bags, and 1 pink Abbot (I bought a pink set years ago but never got the pink Abbot since it was pre-2014).
