Hi, is this the 4th edition, which includes animeeples (animal shaped pieces) ?

When I bought this version it did come with animeeples, which are awesome. I like playing the game well enough regardless of piece shape, but the sheep and cows and wild boar are definitely fun to play with.

I believe this is the second edition of the game from Eagle Games, not sure of the differences from the 1st to 2nd, but as far as I know the one they are selling is the 2nd edition that was released in 2010.

On one side is a picture of an animal with its name below it in all lower case. On the other side are facts about the animal. The set I have is not alphabet flash cards if that is why you ask. I love the set and my grandkids still do also and they are now 8 and 4.

There are diagrams with different designs included. I would not recommend this product, though, as the connectors become rather flimsy and do not hold up to wear and tear from pets.

Hello and thank you for your question about Wonderella! Yes, all our Stuffies animals come with a matching book.

Yes, generally there is a noticeable difference between the 3rd and 4th editions of Catan in two ways: 1) The artwork is very different so your tiles will not look the same, depending on how much that matters to you. Personally, I'd rather have them match. 2) And this could present a more series problem. The 4th ed. of the base game has a different border which locks together. I know it doesn't work well with the 3rd ed. of the base game so I'm guessing you could have some problems here as well. It is a nice improvement to the game in that it holds things together nicely, but it does present compatibility problems with earlier editions. Hope this helps!

I just received the 2nd edition of Factions which includes the new, 4th compatible, colonies. The second edition cones in a square box rather than the rectangular one shown in the item listing.

There were none that I noticed in the copy I received. Besides an artbook and the game disc, there was nothing else. Sorry.

The one I purchased was the first edition of the expansion. I don't know of the second is out yet.

The one that I bought here was the second edition. Some say that it's very hard to buy the first edition. It's quite rare these days.

actually, I bought this model for my friend. so, I did not what is inside. But, I think these 6 stocks belong to the first edition. This model has been reproduced. The second edition will be released in August.

Not an expert, but I read the hex size and game pieces remain the same. Only the rules changed a bit with the 5th edition.

There is now an adapter kit you can get to make your 3rd edition work with the 4th edition expansion. It's an extra $11, but cheaper than re-buying the base set.

The second edition is a full game with an updated rules set. It does not require the first edition.

I don't know for sure, there is nothing that says what edition but all of the series for Settlers of Catan and the Seafarers start with a "3" so maybe that means 3rd edition. I'm sorry I'm not much help on this.
