Dear all,
After contrasting the C2 P&D rules by ZMG with the ones published by HiG (German version on CarcF) and Devir (Spanish/Portuguese version on paper), it seems clear to me that the intended turn sequence when moving the dragon is as follows:
1. Placing a Tile: you place the dragon tile
2. Placing a Meeple: you place a meeple (or move the fairy) if you want to.
1b. Moving the dragon:the players move the dragon
3. Scoring a feature: you score any features completed, if any.
In separate discussion with Black Bear about the French rules and Murphy013 about the German rules, they confirmed the same.
Note: I cannot understand why HiG numbered as 1b the dragon movement phase in the first place. Shouldn't it be renamed to 2b at least? If anyone knows the rationale behind it, please let me know.
So there is no rules change here. The turn sequence is the same as in C1 by HiG and ZMG (RGG mistranslation doesn't count here
).
I also checked some C2 P&D reviews in French by FredTheFred and by Olaf78800 available at BGG (see following link) and they follow the turn sequence above.

Any thoughts?
Cheers!
