I got to the Gamekeeper where Francis, Larry, and Phil whom I had seen in awhile were playing Carcassonne: A New World.

The website did have the rules posted online for it, and I am going to have a headache when I play the game with everyone. There will be soo much backstabbing in the game once my copy comes out.

The expansions add relic cards, event cards, and what appears to be NPC (non-playable character)...
