I would also like to know, whether the cards in the expansion are still multi-lingual (but only the box and rulebook are not)?

Or are the cards of the expansion different to those in the base game?

That would be seriously disappointing.

Cards in the expansion show only a single language. Personally (having been lucky enough to pick up an English copy in Essen) I'm very pleased with this, as the cards in the base game always confused me with its trilingual headers. The name of the card is, admittedly, purely flavour - but it still always took me twice as long to look up the explanation of a card in the rulebook, as I first had to figure out which of the three texts was the English name.

That said, if I hadn't been able to pick this up at Essen, I'd be grouchy about this change, too - Z-man is generally almost impossible to find in Europe.
