5-6 Player Expansion Coming?

[tylerjwarren]

Love that Cities and Knights is now available! Very good version of the game. I'd like to make the case for base game 5-6 Player Expansion and Cities and Knights 5-6 Player Expansion. The bigger map and advanced rules (building at the end of a turn) bring a lot to the game. Please give us this!
Will gladly pay-to-play. Thanks!

I don't even play with 4 players cause it is toooooo long. With 5-6 I can't imagine duration)
perhaps only if you play with friends

5-6 player can actually move the game along faster, because you have the option to build at the end of other players turns (using resources already in hand). This enables the game to progress quite quickly and slightly lessens the risk from the robber. And the map is much larger, with 3 of each number (and 2 of 12s/2s). I find the larger map and 5 players to be the sweet spot for both fast games and lots of options to build/develop.
