Title: Labirinth + Cathedral + Wheel of fortune questions
Post by: aenima on July 09, 2016, 02:10:48 PM
helloooo!!!  ;D
so, it was many time I did not play Carcassonne... and yes, today I had my first game with the labirinth and the German Cathedral (I played also with the wheel of fortune, the flier and the festival and used the complex rules for the labirinth).
little questions:
- Do I thake the bonus for the archbishop on the german cathedral when the pink pig goes on the inquisition sector of the wheel of fortune? (I'd say yes...)
- I won the fight for the labirinth roads with 3 follower VS the 2 of my opponent (5 followers in total). I close the last road with a german cathedral. The roads including the labirinth are 11 tiles... do I take 32 or 42 points? (I'd say 32...)
what do you think?!?

 O0 byeeee

English rules say for WoF say: 2 points per Monk; so it's not clear if that is meant to include an Archbishop.

I'm not sure I following your 2nd question, but there's an example here:

Yes, I know the Wof rules, my question regards the role that an Archibishop can have with an inquisition, must important than a simple monk.
There are no labirinth in these exemples...
the situation is this:
the labirinth and all his roads are composed by 10 tiles... It needs only one tile to complet and close all the roads. On the roads there are 5 follower: 3 mine and 2 of my opponent. It's my turn and I put a German Cathedral to close the last road so I'd go to score:
1) 11 tiles (all the roads and the libirint) x 2 (for the German Cathedral) = 22 points + 10 points (5 followers x 2) = 32 points?
2) 11 tiles (all the roads and the libirint) + 10 (5 follower x 2) = 21 points x 2 (for the German Cathedral) = 42 points?

I think it should be 32 points. The effect of the German Cathedrals is to make roads worth 2 points per tile, which is separate from the bonus scored for meeples on the Labyrinth.

Thanks, that's a bit easier for me to understand.  I agree with JT, 32 points.

The advanced rules for the Labyrinth say translated: "In addition, for each Meeple in the maze, you score 2 points"

I take 'in addition' to mean, after the points for the road have been scored:

Total = Road Score + Meeple Score =  (Road tiles x2 for German Cathedral) + (5 Meeple x2).


Edit:  Similarly, the German Castles give +3 points to a road, AFTER the road has be multiplied by 2, when a German Cathedral is present.
