Here's a bit larger screenshot of this game.

This was again a very tense game with two completely different strategies. As you can see I gained almost all of my points by cities (72 out of 85). While I was able to occupy and complete some valuable cities, Rosco did a good job by capturing some of my knights while keeping his own followers cautiously in his supply and not going into any risky business.
So approaching the final phase of the game I had a slight lead but Rosco had almost all of his meeples (and some of mine) in his supply. For my strategy it was unfortunate that most of the tower tiles came early in the game, so despite having lots of tower pieces left in my supply I couldn't really use them at the end of the game where the farm battle escalated. (Within the last 20 or so tiles there were only two tower tiles and both of them went to Rosco.) As you can see in the screenshot all the farmers are situated below in a completely tower-free area so I couldn't prevent Rosco from joining two more farmers to the main farm with his last tiles. And to make Rosco's life even more easier I made a stupid mistake near the end of the game when I didn't notice one his farmers and unintentionally joined it to my 15 pt farm (with the RRFF tile to the left of my farmer).

Congrats to Rosco who has won the group C with this result, as he needed a victory with a margin of at least 12 points.

What if a player draws a tower tile but they don't have any more tower floors?
