The Robbers (mini #6). Robber tile and Deploying/Scoring
« on: April 02, 2016, 05:31:08 PM »
It needs a clarification for playing  Robber tile.
According CAR "When a player draws a tile with a robber symbol, he or she places it according to normal rules." (emphasis added). Then players may place Robber figures and so on. And what's next? Does the turn end at the same time, when players place/move his/her Robber figures, without any other actions (Deploying a follower, Scoring the structures completed)?
In the rules for other expansions there is usually a clarification of further placement a follower and scoring after a description of the special  action(for the expansion), for example (Goldmines), "After gold placement, the player may still place a follower according to the normal rules." and then detailed clarification of scoring. Why is there not any clarification of placement a follower  and scoring in Robbers expansion rules?

1. When a player draws the robber tile, it is placed as a normal tile.

2. Then players may place their robber next to a follower on the score board, or move their own robber if it's already on the score board.

3. Lastly, the turn continues as normal, with the player who's turn it is, if he or she chooses to, to place a follower on the robber tile, etc.

Hope this helps!

I think it's a shame that all players get to place the robber.  I would have preferred that only the active player has this opportunity.

That is how we play.

Them's the (ZMG) rules. So robber tile is not good for structure copmleting because other players seeing structure completed by active player place theirs robber figures behind counting figure of active player and 1/2 of structure points is lost.  It is better the rules from HiG when only player next to active one whose robber is still in his or her own stock may also place  robber   on scoreboard.
