Just to clarify, there have been no other Spielbox expansions besides Cathers, right?

The Cult (Kultenstätten) was released by Spielbox (with the pentagon watermark) in 2008. It is identical to the CK&C version except it is slightly darker colored than most Carcassonne tiles and has the different watermark. Technically, it's its own expansion, even though it is a duplicate. That issue of Spielbox also included a mini-expansion for Stone Age. Spielbox expansions: Die Katharer (2004) Die Kultenstätten (2008) Der Tunnel (2009) Throw in the Games Quarterly expansion and you have a full-sized compilation of 25 tiles (and 12 tokens). |

OK, I didn't realize that the Cult was theirs.
I ordered two copies of Tunnels. I won't be home to see if I got mine for about 10 days. When I do, if there isn't anything posted yet, I can do so.

Hi all,
I'm "the guy in Ft Collins". I've emailed Whaleyland a copy of the rules (which are printed in the magazine, so I have no idea what they say as I don't read German)

The rules scan, a transcript of the German, and a rough translation are all now on in the Rules forum.

Can someone confirm. Does the magazine include an English set of rules... or any English anywhere?

There are no English rules in the magazine. The magazine contains like two sentences of English |

You're not alone. Mine hasn't arrived yet, either. Mind you, things often take a while to make it here to New Zealand for some reason. |

Grrr!!! It's been almost three weeks now and no Tunnel! I feel like I'm trapped in a freaking tunnel. At this rate, I'll get my Wheel of Fortune and 1912 Europa expansions before I get this little expansion. .:.sigh.:. Anyway, here's Jay's reply regarding the Tunnel's release in the US. Not too optimistic, really: As for Tunnel, I will do it, but must wait a year - that is the rule
I must follow. As of now, I have no idea how I will do it, as it is too small to
be released on its own.
I seem to remember this one-year rule mentioned before. Somehow he got around it with The Cult, though, probably because HiG released it first and not Spielbox. Either way, he DOES plan to release it at least, so no Cathars-type availability issue. As I noted to him, he seems to have no idea how to release it. I'm guessing he's going to hope that a new mini expansion is released by HiG or Spielbox in the meantime, so he can compile them together. There really is nothing else that can be compiled at this moment in time. We'll just have to wait and see...for October 2010 at the earliest... .:.more sigh.:.  Edit: I just noticed that Hans im Glück's website now has a page for Der Tunnel expansion. It pretty much is a direct copy of the text in the magazine, but people can feel free to check it out. It's at http://www.hans-im-glueck.de/232.0.html. |
