I kind of think revised versions shouldn't be considered, unless it is just a huge change (like how Power Grid dispensed with the line drawing of original Funkenschlag). The purpose of the award is to help people find new and worthy games, and I imagine people who have played the older Concordia or Brass probably pretty much know what to expect with the new ones. (I haven't played the new ones so I might be wrong.)
