I visited my FLGS today and they had the 10th Anniversary Edition, the Phantom Expansion, and Carc: the Dice Game in stock. I guess that they're around now, although none of the online retailers have them in yet (e.g. boardsandbits, funagaingames, or fairplaygames). I'm a little short on cash at the moment so I'll have to wait for the less expensive internet retailers to sell it before I buy though, so I can't give much info on the actual contents of the box

Played the Dice Game and the Phantom expansion last night. I am very impressed with how they came out!
The extra meeple placing with the Phantom when you want the farm and the city on your tile makes this expansion worth it.
The Dice game was addictive and played well with three people. Hard to not roll catapult, but very fun nonetheless. :-)

Picked up the the 10th Anniversary set, the dice game, and the purple container of extra phantom meeples today at the Game Preserve in Indy. Can't wait to tear into it. I also grabbed Cornucopia for Dominion...didn't even know it was out.

I received Dominion Cornucopia today too (but I still can't find Carc 10th edition online). Make sure to check that your Cornucopia copy has all the cards. Some shipments went out missing one of the three packets inside (Mine had all of them luckily).

Just sold my last Carc 10th anniversary today and won't get any new ones in until August... Sorry vagabondriot good luck shopping! (you should still check out my other item listings, which new official Carcassonne clothing will be coming as well soon  ) |

I received my set on Monday and really like it.
Here is what I would suggest to HiG and/or RGG:
First, they should have included the 6 meeple translucent colors in the box, instead of just the main 5. If they had trouble with the gray translucent color that could have easily come up with a new color. How about lavender?
Second, they also should have come up with a better translucent color to match the gray, instead of the lavender. I don't mind this so much because we made our own set of purple meeples a while back and the lavender works well for that. My wife was excited because she uses purple and now she will have a matching phantom! I just don't think it works so well with the gray meeple.
In case anyone is wondering (I know I was before hand), the set comes with the following meeples:
10th Anniversary = 8 meeples of each of 5 translucent colors (red, black, green, blue, yellow)
Phantom = 1 meeple in each of 6 translucent colors (red, black, green, blue, yellow, lavender)
Happy playing!

I agree with the lavender meeple for the gray set... A clear no color meeple would have been better for gray, but my wife too enjoys the lavender with our purple set too :-) I think the Phantom expansion was intended to be played with the wooden meeples so possibly why a sixth set in box was not included? But it was disappointing nonetheless. |

I tore into it the next day to look at the cards and it appears I have everything. I like the new prize idea...I think a couple of those are wicked. On topic...(lol)...I still haven't had time to play with any of this new stuff. Sigh. And my four year old has already snagged my phantom set and lost the rules and one of the meeples...grrrrr...guess I have to buy another set and put it on a higher shelf. |
