Hi,

A note on the interaction of wagon and bathhouses is missing on Barber-surgeons and on exp. 5 pages.


Situation 1
If a feature containing only a wagon is closed and there is at least one free bathhouse :
  • Bathhouse action first, wagon second but blocked: The wagon moves to a free bathhouse and is stuck there (the correct answer according to my understanding of the rules)
  • Wagon action first, bathhouse second: The wagon may move to an adjacent feature and if he does so, he doesn't go to a free bathhouse as he's not on the closed feature anymore (seems odd)
  • Bathhouse action first, wagon second: The wagon moves to a free bathhouse and can then move to a feature adjacent to the bathhouse  :)) (seems very odd!)


Situation 2
And also... When a bathhouse containing a wagon is completed, can the wagon be placed to an adjacent feature?
I guess no as the rule says
Quote
the Meeple placed in the bathhouse can be taken back immediately and for free

A note on WICA about both those situations would be nice  ;)

  • Bathhouse action first, wagon second: The wagon moves to a free bathhouse and can then move to a feature adjacent to the bathhouse  :)) (seems very odd!)

In general terms, checking if a meeple has to be trapped in a bathhouse should happen first, otherwise you remove the meeple as usual. However for wagons, removing the meeple after scoring may be traded for moving the wagon to another feature, if possible.

The second option, deciding to send a wagon to a bathhouse if it cannot be moved, seems odd, as you mention. Trapping a meeple is unconditional for one-meeple scorings, there is no way to escape from it unless there are no free bathhouse. However, moving the wagon is an alternative (when possible) to returning it to its owner's supply.

The third option would not make sense either. If your wagon is trapped, it cannot move.

The first option is the one considered in the Order of Play (select Exp. 5 and Baber-Surgeons and check step 3B):

Situation 2
And also... When a bathhouse containing a wagon is completed, can the wagon be placed to an adjacent feature?

A note on WICA about both those situations would be nice  ;)

When a meeple trapped in a bathhouse is freed (the batthouse is surrounded in 1. Placing a tile or you bought back the meeple in 2. Placing  a meeple, Step 2A) it goes straight to your supply, even the wagon (there is no feature scoring involved here, as required by the wagon to move). Then you can place it in 2. Placing  a meeple, Step 2B-1.

Scenario 1 may use a clarification in The Barber Surgeons. Scenario 2 is just applying the rules, so maybe a clarification wouldn't be necessary.

On short, which is the correct option? 1, 2 or 3?

For Situation 1? The first one. The action sequence would be as follows:
1. If meeple has to be trapped in bathhouse, do so
2. If not, if it is a wagon and can be moved, decide if you want to do so
3. Otherwise, return meeple to owner

Ok. I found some glitch.
When opening for example Scoring during turn sequence. I select mine expansion. When going back, and again to this page, selection is stored and all mine (requested) expansions are checked. When going to Order of play, selection is used from previous page.

But when opening page in another tab, selection is lost.

It's pitty, when wanted to open Scoring during turn sequence and Order of play in two tabs, I have to select all expansions. because in second tab, selection is lost ;-(

Also when going to page again in different tab (means next day after closing browser).
Before, selection was stored in cookies I guesss, and it was easy to check without select all of expansions. Currently need's to go to Filter, swtich also C1 version, go to First / Second and third tab to select all expansions.
Check JCloisterZone Add-ons with fan expansions and also some Slovak sci/fi projects in English https://www.scifi.sk/en/

Please try now!

The pages with the Game Reference, Order of Play and Scoring summaries are using cookies again...  ;)

The Tile Reference use too much information to be stored in cookies, so it will continue to use local storage.

It seems Local Storage has a more compartmentalized behavior than cookies.

Cool. It works as expected ;D
And it share it also in Game figures.
Great.

Selection for Tile reference uses different selections based on versions of expansions and it's dificult to shere selection there.

Thank you for quick response.

I was printing to PDF offline version of game sequences because of new expansions and new rules and I was confusing, that It was working before! ;-D

Thanks!

Yep! The Game Reference shares the same selector, based on expansion rulesets and components.

Luckily, I left everything prepared to easily switch between both behaviors as required...  ;)

Also, the reference pages should consider Carcassonne Maps and Spin-offs.

Yes, I have to address some comments I couldn't address yet.

Also, the reference pages should consider Carcassonne Maps and Spin-offs.

Regarding Carcassonne Maps, do you mean creating an additional set of Reference Pages with the basic game plus Map Chips only? Or do you suggest to mix everything from Carcassonne Maps in the current Reference Pages set?

Spin-Offs would require separate Reference Pages sets per game rather vanilla in most cases when no expansions are to be considered.

Carcassonne Maps should be included in the currently Order of Play, because Carcassonne Maps can be played with other normal expansions (like Inns and Cathedrals). But you should be able to select only one map and to select the optional option "Map-Chips".

Yes, this can happen, although it is not recommended by HiG.

But, who cares! When I have the opportunity, I'd like to player the USA Maps with one river ending at each coast...  >:D

Also "Saint Nicholas Scoring Board".

Ha ha ha! I was looking at this request a few days ago. It would require to add a paragraph to the intro part and a new tag to each spot where a scoring can happen. Something like ST.NICHOLAS.

The intro would explain the rules to get an additional turn, that would happen. But there are some open issues:
* Base Game:
   - Several players meet the conditions at the same time for the "6" or the "24" space: Do all get the double turn or the active player decides the order of scoring and only one gets the extra turn?
   - A player meets both conditions at the same time for the "6" and the "24" space: Does extra turns stack and the player gets two extra turns?
   - Several players meet the conditions at the same time for the "6" and the "24" space: Do all get the double turn or the active player decides the order of scoring and only one gets the extra turn(s)?
* Exp. 2 -  Traders & Builders:
   - How should we handle a anew turn when a double turn is taking place? Should we wait until the whole double turn is complete?
* Exp. 8 - Bridges, Castles & Bazaars:
   - How to deal with a new turn when bazaars is involved?  Should we wait until the whole bazaar round is complete?
* Mini #2 - Messages:
   - Should we consider the last scoring figure for the "6" space and the first one for the "24" space?
   - How to deal with a new turn during with Message #7? Should the additional turn happen at the end of the current turn or right after Message #7's turn?
* Exp. 4 - The Tower / Exp. 8 - Bridges, Castles & Bazaars / The Burber-Surgeons / The Peasant Revolts:
   - Points payments may allow scoring figures to go backwards and land or pass the "6" space after it granted an additional turn. Can we assume that the "6" space cannot grant more than one additional turn?

EDIT: Added last question.
