Rio Grande Games plans three new Alhambra releases in 2006.  The first two are scheduled for July.  Alhambra:  The Thief's Turn, by Dirk Henn and Wolfgang Panning, includes thieves and three other new game features:  a flying trader that draws new inhabitants into the palace building, walls, and making change, which brings small coins in the game.  MSRP will be $24.95.

Alhambra:  Calif's Treasure Chamber, by Dirk Henn, is also slated for July at a $24.95 MSRP. 

And in September, Alhambra:  The City Gates will be released.  It will include four different modules that can be combined individually, or all together with the basic game. The game includes diamonds, which can be used to buy anything; characters, character cards that are auctioned off when revealed; camps that are placed outside the city walls, and city gates, which can be placed in the city to go through an internal wall.  The authors are Dirk Henn and Wolfgang Panning; MSRP is $24.95. 

And as an update on key games that are currently out of stock from Rio Grande,
Carcassonne is due back in stock this month, and Caylus in May.
