Does anyone know what happened to the supposed new stand alone Carcassonne game that was meant to be coming our way last year?

Before we heard of Abbey and Mayor and the 6th expansion set there was talk of a new game that involved building East to West.... and then.... Nothing....

No. There was definite talk about a brand new game. It was to be set in the New World (and it wasn't The Discovery). It was mentioned on some websites, but then everything went all 'Abbey and Mayor' and that was the last I saw.

Anyone?

Hmm… the link leads to the message 'Product not found for Product ID !'

I remember it being discussed too… Huh?

hmmm...should've taken you to Funagain games site for Carcassonne: New World. Not much info there, just the wording :

'In this Carcassonne-style game, players are the brave pioneers who settled the new world. You begin laying tiles on the east coast and explore westward.' and a price stated of Your Price: $19.95, availability 2008.

Well, here's hoping that in a year's time it's not still there with availability changed to 2009.

Well, I'm glad they are getting A&M and K,C&C out the door first Smiley  This new game (from the funagain description) sounds interesting, but I think it may be confusing for new players out there who have no idea that not everything with "Carcassonne" in its title can be integrated with everything else.  I know I was confused when I first started buying expansions!
