Question #13: Red places this tile completing a road with two meeples. The player has the following questions:
1) Can Red send a meeple to Leipzig?
2a) If not possible, how many points would each player score?
2b) If possible, how many points would each player score if Red sends one of their meeples to the Wainwrights quarter in Leipzig?



Answer #13: This tile placement completes a 4-tile road with two meeples. Red can send one of them to Leipzig since the completed road is connected to Leipzig via villages, two in this case. Before scoring, Red would send one meeple on the road to the Wainwrights quarter in Leipzig, and score the road with the other meeple reamining. (If Red had only one meeple on the road, the player would score no points for the road in this case).

So the answer to these questions is as follows:
1) Yes, Red can send a meeple to Leipzig.
2a) This question would not apply.
2b) This question applies, so Red would score 8 points (4 points for the road + 4 points for the meeple just sent to Wainwrights quarter in Leipzig):
* 4 points for the road (4 tiles x 1 point/tile)
* 4 points for the meeple in the Wainwrights quarter (4 tiles x 1 point/tile)

Note that Blue will not score any points, since their meeple in the Wainwrights quarter by itself is not enough to score points. The player would have needed to have the majority -or at least share it with Red- in the completed road in order to score points and receive the Wainwrights quarter bonus as well.

Additionally, Yellow will score no points either, since the player is not present in a road with coats of arms completed suring this turn.

Bottomline:
1) Yes, Red can send a meeple to Leipzig.
2a) N/A
2b) The players score as follows:
* Blue scores no points
* Red scores 8 points
* Yellow scores no points

Question #14: Red places this tile completing a road with plenty of signpost arrows. How many points will the player score if the active scoring tile for roads is the one shown top left?



Answer #14: Red completes an 8-tile road with several signpost arrows. The Highway scoring tiles affecting roads forces the player to score the road as it had 5 tiles only.

The road has several signposts arrows but only 4 of them are in correct position (1 in black and 3 in red as seen in the image below). This means that there are two types of arrows in correct position, so each correct arrow is worth 2 points.



Red will then score 13 points for the road (5 points for the road itself + 8 points for the correct signpost arrows):
* 5 points for the road (5 tiles for the Highway scoring tile x 1 point per tile)
* 8 points for the correct signpost arrows (4 correct arrows x 2 points per correct arrow)

Bottomline:
Red scores 13 points.

Question #15: Red places this tile and a meeple. How many points does each player score?



Answer #15: Red completes several features with this tile placement:

* A 2-tile road occupied by Red ending at a German castle. This road is worth 5 points (2 points for the road + 3 bonus points for the German castle):
  * 2 points for the road (2 tiles x 1 point)
  * 3 bonus points for the German castle ending the road

* A city occupied by Red which has a city segment on a German castle. This city is worth 11 points (8 points for the city + 3 bonus points for the German castle)
  * 8 points for the city ( ( 3 tiles + 1 coat of arms ) x 2 points = 4 x 2 points )
  * 3 bonus points for the German castle on the city tile

* A 4-tile road occupied by Blue with a bridge and an inn. This road is worth 8 points ( 4 tiles x (1 point per tile + 1 point for the inn) = 4 x 2 points ). Note that the road passes over the German castle but does not end at it, so it does not receive any German castle bonus.

* A 4-tile road occupied by Yellow ending at a German castle. This road is worth 7 points (4 points for the road + 3 bonus points for the German castle):
  * 4 points for the road (4 tiles x 1 point)
  * 3 bonus points for the German castle ending the road
 
Bottomline:
* Blue scores 8 points for the road
* Red scores 16 points (5 points for the road + 11 points for the city)
* Yellow scores 7 points for the road

Just correction, 2nd red get 8 points for the city, not for the road.
I was looking to that small 2 tile road, and wondering, where is that coat of arms. (as we know, there are maps used also on roads).

Question #16: Red places this tile. The player has the following questions:
1) How many points does each player score?
2) Does any meeple go to the free bathhouse?



Answer #16: Red completes two cities with City Gates tiles. Note that the city gates facing each other on the tiles below separate the cities. Therefore, one city is occupied by Red and the other is shared by Red and Yellow.

The city occupied by Red alone has 5 tiles and 2 coats of arms, so it is worth 14 points ( (5 tiles + 2 coats of arms) x 2 points = 7 x 2 points). Additionally, the meeple in this city is scoring alone, so it can go to a free bathhouse after scoring.

The city shared by Red and Yellow has 5 tiles, 1 coat of arms and a 3-point bathhouse. This city is then worth 15 points (12 points for the city itself + 3 points for the bathhouse):
* 12 points for the city itself ( (5 tiles + 1 coat of arms) x 2 points = 6 x 2 points)
* 3 points for the bathhouse
Since there are two meeples in this city, none of them is a candidate to go to a free bathhouse for this scoring.

So the answers to the questions are as follows:
1) Bottomline:
   * Red scores 29 points (14 + 15 points)
   * Yellow scores 15 points
2) Red's meeple scoring alone will go to the free bathhouse

Question #17: Red places this tile. The player has the following questions:
1) How many points does each player score?
2) Who gets the teacher from the school?



Answer #17: Red completes one road ending at the school. This road contains two tunnels (one marked with red tunnel tokens and another one with yellow tunnel tokens). This road has 7 tiles (Note: the tile on the center right with three tunnels tokens is only counted once). Check the following image where the roads occupied by Red and Yellow:



You can also see in the image above that the road occupied by Yellow is not completed. The grey tunnel tokens connect two road segments but the one on the center right is open ended. So Yellow scores no points.

Therefore Red scores 7 points (7 tiles x 1 point per tile). Since Red completes the road connected to the school, Red will receive the teacher, but the teacher bonus is not applicable until the next feature is scored.

Bottomline:
1) Red scores 7 points.
   Yellow scores no points
2) Red receives the teacher.

Question #18: Red places this tile. The player has the following questions:
1) How many points does the player score during this turn if playing with the Variant Rules for Little Buildings?
2) Does the Witch stay on the road after scoring?
3) Can the Dragon eat the Witch if landing on the same tile?



Answer #18: Red completes a road with the Witch and two little buildings. Since we are applying the Variant Rules for Little Buildings, the shed is worth 1 point and the tower is worth 3 points. As indicated in the clarifications for Little Buildings, their points are applied after the Witch.

The road is initially worth 5 points (5 tiles x 1 point per tile), but the Witch halves these points (rounding them up), so the road is worth 3 points (5 points / 2 rounded up). The Little Building points will be applied on top of these points. So the road is worth 7 points (3 points for the feature itself + 1 point for the shed + 3 points for the tower). 

Additionally, the Fairy assigned to the Red Meeple, so it will provide the following extra points:
* 1 bonus point at the beginning of Red's turn.
* 3 bonus points for its presence in the completed road.

Bottomline:
The answer to the questions is as follows:
1) Red scores 11 points (1 point for the Fairy at the beginning of the player's turn + 7 points for the road + 3 points for the Fairy scoring bonus).
2) No, the Witch will be removed from the road and placed aside until a player placing a new tile with a magic symbol decides to place the Witch on an uncompleted road or city again.
3) Yes, the Dragon will eat the Witch if placed on the same tile.

Question #19: Red places this tile and decides to remove the abbot. How many points does each player score taking into account the scoring tiles shown as active?



Answer #19: Red completes a road occupied by Blue and a city occupied by Red. Note that the other meeples within the walls of the city are not actually placed in the city:
* The Blue Meeple is placed on a monastery within the city, so the meeple is a monk, not a knight in the city.
* The Yellow Meeple is on top of a tower so it is not a knight in the city either. The large bridge over the city does not split it into two.

Red will score 4 points for the abbot (1 point for the monastery tile + (3 adjacent tiles x 1 point) = 1 + 3 points). The Pilgrimage Route scoring tile does not affect the scoring of an abbot, just the scoring of completed monastic buildings.

Blue will score 4 points for the road affected by the Poverty scoring tile ( (7 tiles x 1 point per tile) - 3 penalty points for the scoring tile = 7 points - 3 points).

Red will score 14 points for the city ( (6 tiles + 1 coat of arms) x 2 points = 7 x 2 points). The Citizen's Jury scoring tile does not affect the scoring the city in this case, since the only meeple in the city is from Red.

Bottomline:
* Blue will score 4 points.
* Red will score 18 points (4 points for the abbot + 14 points for the city).
* Yellow will score no points.
