I may now disclose that Queen Games has licensed "Wabash Cannonball" from Winsome Games. Queen is an established, very capable firm with a long history of excellent games, including the Spiel des Jahres winner "Alhambra" and the excellent "Metro" train game, both by the talented Dirk Henn. "Wabash Cannonball" designer Harry Wu and I and the other Winsome folks, both in Pittsburgh and in Germany, are delighted to license "Wabash Cannonball" to Queen. The license, executed last May, grants Queen worldwide rights and the game will be available in multiple languages.

Sounds good!

Will it be available for Essen, though?

Awesome!

I played this for the first time a few weeks ago, and I really enjoyed it.

I will definitely be buying the reprint!

I'm glad to see this excellent game get the exposure it deserves. I'm hoping the Queen treatment will look as good as the game plays.

Any news about the expansion? Is it on the Queen reprint? Or there are any deal about that as well?

This is great news, John. Good work.
Would Queen be licensing any other Winsome games? ;)

Is it a straight reprint, rules-wise?

I can't wait to see some of the artwork for the new edition.

...and there was much rejoicing! :D

I came late to this game, but I love it's espresso-like character: short, strong and invigorating.
What's my age again?

Wahooo! Awesome job, Bernd!!
I own the original as well but usually the artwork and production quality of Queen Games are hardly resistable - when can we buy it?

Awesome! Maybe I can get other people to play it now! While I really enjoy Winsome Games, the lack of graphic design seems to turn a lot of people off. The Queen treatment should help a lot!
