Maybe I read it wrong but:

Quote
you may place a meeple in one of the four city districts (even if the Count is in that district). Then, you may move the Count to a district of your choice within the city of Carcassonne.

There is implication. A then B when A is negative then you are not able to do B.

So if you not place meeple then you can not move count. Because you may move count as 2nd step when you place meeple in 1st step.

In any case, a footnote is still required. It is clear that the rules are not 100 % clear.

The Carcassonne rules are a paradox, too. :)

Added an inline clarification and a footnote based on the rules for the 1st edition, were the dependency between the actions was totally clear.

I do not understand why does WICA should not mention the e-mail from Andreas Kramer...

This was clarified by Kettlefish, not Andreas.

Andreas made a bit of a mess by ignoring the dependency expressed in the C1 rules. In German, the dependency is still maintained in C2, but it seems that the English wording became fuzzier and "Then..." is weaker than "Additionally,..." or "Then, if you did the placement,...", that is what the original rules meant.

I discussed this issue again with Kettelfish who confirmed the rules in C2 are the same as in C1 in this case.
