German Cathedrals scoring questions
« on: March 31, 2016, 08:36:38 AM »
I have a scoring question for this new expansion.  If a road starts at one German Cathedral and ends at a different German Cathedral is the scoring of the road still 2 points per tile?

In theory a new Labyrinth tile could be surrounded by 4 German Cathedrals.  If I am lucky enough to have placed a meeple on the Labyrinth tile does it score 10 points or more than 10?

My initial thought would be no. Am not at home to check.
 
Following all previous rules such as Inns and Cathedrals it's safe too presume they don't.

I would think 10 points for that.

Is there a rule that prevents putting the cathedrals together like there is for the german castles?

German Castles and German Cathedrals together can score some really decent road bonuses.

I have created a small riddle - the score for the German Cathedrals - but still without the result...   >:D

Top red is 11
Green is 9
Top blue is 4
Yellow on castle tile is 7
Middle Red is 4
Bottom blue is 12
I think each of the yellow and the green on cathedrals get 9 but I am not sure as I haven't studied the rules yet
Just lay the damn tile!

Blimey! I make it:

Top red - 11
Top yellow - 9
Top green - 9
Lower yellow - 7
Top blue - 4
Lower red - 4
Lower green - 8
Lower blue - 12
Look to the north. Keep looking. There's nothing coming from the south.

Why is the lower green only 8

One point for each road tile, multiple roads coming from the Cathedral count as one road, the Cathedral tile counts twice. So the road at the top is worth two, and the other is worth six, five tiles but the Cathedral counts twice.

@kettlefish: I'm assuming the Cathedrals are meant to have buildings on the road and that the roads are separate!

Rules don't mention anything about 2 cathedrals, so I'm going for each applies its rule (eg: 2 points per tile).

Here's my guess left to right:

Red: 11 (2 points per tile + 3)
Yellow: 12(1 point per road + 2 point for inn)
Green: 9 (3 points per road with inn)
Yellow: 7 (2 points per road + 3)
Blue: 8 (2 points per road, 2 points per road)
Red: 4 (2 per road)
Green: 8 (1 point per road)
Blue: 24 (2 points per road, 2 points per road)

+1 Kettlefish - thank you for the answers! It looks like the CAR will need to make clear multiple Cathedrals don't both act on the road, but I guess it's like most other things!

An Archbishop earns 2 points for each road segment with an inn on it.  It is in the extra rules section about interactions with other expansions.

Probably should have looked at that while working out the riddle!

I didn't know the Inn stacked for the Archbishop.  Thanks Kettlefish for the diagram.  Merit to you!
