Title: Can a Dragon knock off a double sized Meeple?
Post by: LilliB on February 21, 2020, 09:07:38 AM

Hi,

Can the Dragon knock off the double (big) Meeple?
Hubby says Dragon can only knock off one Meeple, so if you have your double on the tile & the Dragon lands on it, then you change the double for a single. 
Surely that can’t be right?  What if you then have no single Meeples available, they may all be in use!

Cheers

The dragon eats the big follower too.

Hi LilliB,

Welcome to the forum. Hope you enjoy it!

The dragon will eat (remove) any meeples placed on the tile it lands on, no matter the type of meeple. The meeples are not downgraded. They are just removed and returned to their owners. If there are several meeples on a tile ( this can happen when playing with The Phantom, Crop Circles or Flying Machines, for example), the dragon will remove them all.

For a detailed list of what the dragon can eat or not, please check here:

Hope this helps.

Cheers!
