Indeed, this does look promising. This years has been terrible for new Carcassonne expansions. Wheel of Fate hasn't even gotten a release date yet in the US and it has been three months since it released in Germany. Jay dodges the question every time. At least Fun Again Game and Thought Hammer are finally taking pre-orders. But then this comes around!

Tunnels! (Image of the expansion available at http://things-of-no-interest.blogspot.com/2009/09/tunnel-add-on-for-carcassonne.html) Spielbox Issue 2009/6 (releases 21 October 21) is a four-tile expansion to Carcassonne. It also includes 12 chips in the six player colors. The announcement (and blog) were provided by a spielbox representative, so this is definitely legit. The pre-order scotty13 provided also works for US orders, I believe (I have not pre-ordered as of yet). No official rules have been provided by Spielbox but I assume they will be forthcoming.

Any speculations?

Man, this is tempting.  Almost $15 to ship to the U.S. though.  Not sure I can justify it.  I suppose I could wait for it to come to ebay or for Jay to put out his own (i.e. Siege).  Anxious to see what it looks like though.

I imagine that a the chits are used to claim a tunnel entrance and exit. When they are placed is the difficult part. Perhaps, if you deploy a thief to a road which ends in a tunnel, you also claim the tunnel entrance (and possibly exit) at that time. You score for the road in the usual way... but your road could continue right over the other side of the layout.

That's what i'm speculating, anyway Wink

Awesome. $15.15 including shipping to Canada.

If you're having trouble justifying, I'm expecting this will sell out and people will be selling for ridiculous amounts of money. This is the cheapest time to buy.

Also because it's a Spielbox expansion, Rio Grande most likely won't be able to make it available in North America.
