Gold Rush (Mountains)

[Novelty]

Just thought I'd give a heads up to fans of Mountains and Gold Mines and Trade goods.  This expansion will be a mash-up of all of these (and the shrines and cloister wills see a reprise as well!)

The expansion will include 12 tiles total and:
Gold Mines on mountains - works the same as the gold mines expansion.
Coal Trade goods - 5 coal trade goods to collect, but takes meeples to work on it!
Ore icons!

Some sample images:



I'll get the rules up later.

Seems really cool.

Waiting for the rules

Very high quality tiles in my opinion Novelty.  Very nice!  Kudos...

[Novelty]

And the rules are ready!  I  hope I haven't made any stupid mistakes in there

seems fine to me, but English is not my mother languaje

I wish I could find my own mistakes as easily I can find other people's mistakes...  Although I only found a few minors things:

So here goes:
Under 'Place a Tile', "The tiles are place in accordance to the rules..." 
"Place" should be "placed"

Under 'Deploy a Follower', "After a tile with a coal trade good icon is played, and the scoring done..."
The comma can be omitted.

What about the coal trade counters?  Shouldn't that be listed in the extra pieces section?

Thanks.  It's updated in my personal copy.  I wait until the weekend to post up the new version.  And yes, it's easier to spot other people's mistakes than to find them when you write them.  It's a weird law of the universe.

I could only find one wee mistake:

Under 'Place a Tile', "Also, if a player draws a tile with a ore icon after playing a tile ..." (the last sentence of the last paragraph)
"a ore icon" should be "an ore icon"

[Novelty]

Thanks djdahmer.  Typo corrected, and expansion uploaded to the downloads page, although it may take a while to show

I have one question regarding scoring completed mountains in Goldrush. The section 3 reads:

(...)
Each player with a coalminer on the completed mountain range receives a coal trade counter for each coalminer on
the completed range. However, a player may choose to sell the mined coal and receive an additional 3 points for
each coalminer instead of obtaining the coal trade counter. If a player chooses to do this, then the player that
completes the mountain range receives the coal trade counter instead.
(...)

Now, what happens when the player that completes the mountains also has his coalminers on the completed mountains? Can he have both 3 points per coalminer AND one trade counter per coalminer? Because what happens here:

1. I have 2 coalminers on the mountains
2. I lay a tile that completes the mountains
3. I can receive a trade token for each of my coalminers
4. I choose to get 3 points per miner instead
5. The trade tokens go to the player that completes the mountains (that's me)

Is that right?
