Question #14: After Danisthirty places this tile, how many points does each player score, if any?Answer #14: The Blue Abbot scores no points. It was just placed on an incomplete monastery.The tile placed completes an unoccupied 2-tile road. Nobody scores for the road itself but it triggers the scoring of the castle occupied by the Yellow Mayor. The castle is entitled to receive 2 points for the completed road (2 tiles x 1 point per tile) but the Yellow Mayor cannot score those points since the castle is a feature with no coats of arms.So the Yellow Mayor will score 0 points for the road but will be able to receive the fairy 3-point scoring bonus. This means that Yellow scores 3 points after all.Additionally, the completion of the castle occupied by Yellow triggers the scoring of the castle occupied by Red, since the castles overlap each other's fiefs. The Red Castle Lord will also be entitled to score the same 2 points the previous castle was entitled to for the road. As a result, Red will score 2 points.Notes: * A key point here is the dissociation between the points a feature is worth and the points a meeple can score. Castles see the points completed features are worth, even if the meeples on them cannot score those points. * Red will not be able to receive any points from the fairy. The fairy bonus is not part of the scoring of a feature but a bonus associated to a meeple. Bottomline:- Blue scores 0 points- Red scores 2 points- Yellow scores 3 points
Aaw, questions 13 and 14 are marking the end of my correct answers streak... Maybe the beginning of my wrong answers streak? 13: I did only explore the first scenario, the second seemed to unlogical to me, as yellow would never allow it 14: I thought the second castle would get the same number of points than the first (without fairy of course), 0 points.Here's a correction I have to make to the French order of play

Sent from my iPad using TapatalkAgain, castles receive points from features, not points scored by meeples. This allows a castle to score points for an unoccupied feature, and this means that if you have several overlapping castles, they all share the points for the same feature, no matter if some of them are occupied by mayors and these only score 0 points.If you assume Red would clone the 0 points scored by the Yellow Mayor for the castle, you should also be able to see the 3 points for the fairy? We are "cloning" feature points not meeple points.

It doesn't make any senseSent from my iPad using Tapatalk
The rules says that a castle scores a feature of its 6 tiles but not beyond ... If there is a castle within the zone of another castle as is the case in the example, it is valued if there is a feature that is shared or not ... Take the points of another castle because it is on the zone of another does not make any logical sense following the basic principle of expansion ... It seems that you want to go beyond the regulations and in the end you fall into contradictions ... If this is written as official regulations, it should be reviewed ...Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
. Two or more incomplete castles may be standing next to each other. If one of them scores points, it will be considered as a completed feature for the adjacent castles. All the castle owners receive the same number of points.
You can place the following figures in a castle: [...] Mayor, however, since the castle doesn't have a coat of arms, the mayor cannot score points

Two or more incomplete castles may be standing next to each other. If one of them scores points, it will be considered as a completed feature for the adjacent castles. All the castle owners receive the same number of points. So both meeples get the same number of points for the feature. Those are the base official rules you can find printed in any exp 8 box. The rules also say :QuoteYou can place the following figures in a castle: [...] Mayor, however, since the castle doesn't have a coat of arms, the mayor cannot score points So, as one is a mayor, he can't get the points, only the points for his fairy.Those are also the base official rules you can find printed in any exp 8 box, in the "other expansions" section.Please read the rules before saying we are inventing them. And Meepledrone has the best knowledge of the rules, official, and also of those provided as clarifications by HiG. Of course you may not like those rules, and you're free to use your own, but please stop criticizing our work, and try to discuss gently when you see a contradiction, there are allways some.
