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%!

Does somebody know WHEN it (

) will be release / available status in Germany (on amazon.de or else)?

thanks

This new German version...

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

At Bonifatius they have a page setup for this one, with an expected release date of 23/10/2017
https://www.bonifatius-buchhandlung.de/produkt-1996/carcassonne_bruecken_burgen_und_basare_spiel_zubehoer/9837950
They've got several nice Carcassonne items coming, so might be a good site to keep your eyes on!

999 Games have stated on fb today that it has come out!
https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=1709886909023627&id=180536678625332
Others (like above link) show it for today as well. Now hoping cundco have it soon to

Decar · « **Reply #10 on:** October 26, 2017, 10:52:24 AM »

It's available on Cundco too!

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.

Many thanks for this update kettlefish!

Is the rulesheet availlable for public?

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.
