I agree it may be an overkill, but the wording may lead you think you can protect other meeples instead of placing your phantom.In the Order of Play you won't include the option, but out of context I think it is okay to include this clarification.Remember the wording included in the rules:QuoteEach time you do not to place a meeple on the tile you just have placed, you may protect one of your meeples standing on tiles for the cost of 2 points.If you apply it literally, you would assume this applies to Steps 2B-1 and 2B-2. Did this happen to anyone here recently in the heat of the moment?
Each time you do not to place a meeple on the tile you just have placed, you may protect one of your meeples standing on tiles for the cost of 2 points.

Now I understand your first wording for Phase 2B-2. In this case maybe it has to be able to protect meeple if none meeple was changed to protected in Phase 2B-1.Wording can be: When you didn't place your phantom from your supply, you can protect any meeple if you don't do this in Phase 2B-1 Place Wood. (something with nicer english ;-D)What do you think?PS: German wording in rules mentioned in quote is similar?

Immer wenn du keinen Meeple auf dein angelegtes Plättchen einsetzt, darfst du genau 1 deiner schon eingesetzten Meeple für 2 Punkte schützen.
Whenever you don't use a meeple on the tile you have placed, you may use exactly 1 of your already-placed meeples for 2 points.
QuoteEach time you do not to place a meeple on the tile you just have placed, you may protect one of your meeples standing on tiles for the cost of 2 points.You see the dilemma here!!!
Each time you do not to place a meeple on the tile you just have placed...
If you don't place a meeple, you are allowed to place your tollhouse showing 1 (small toll). If your tollhouse is already in the game, you are allowed to relocate it. The rules for this procedure are as follows
Then we have some special cases eligible for protection for 4 points for the sake of consistency:* Step 1C: exchanging a meeple with La Porxada* Step 3B: moving a wagon (does the meeple maintain its protection state when moved?)* Step 4A: exchanging a meeple with a Seduction Token.* Step 4A: placing a meeple with a crop circleAny thoughts?
Each time you do not to place a meeple on the tile you just have placed, [3] you may protect one of your meeples standing on tiles for the cost of 2 points.
