The Mayor is the one that we have struggled with the most to categorize. We've had to decide that in order for a follower to collect points for a feature he must have a "quantum" in the feature. The Mayor only has a quantum value when coupled with a pennant. All other followers carry their quantum with them. The Mayor is not able to score in any other feature but does provide a presence, and establishes ownership. For example, you cannot enter a city directly if a Mayor is already there. So there is difference between ownership and quantum. We allow the Mayor to cap a tower for example. On a Tower you don't need a quantum, just the presence of a follower - and the Mayor is a follower. He could be placed on a cloister, for example, but since he provides no quantum he would not be able to collect the points. He would block any other follower from being placed there though. The same could be said for a farm.So when any rule says do one thing or another with a follower, for us, the Mayor, Wagon and Big Follower are included.
I see it now. I had printed off 131 which says "When a player performs action A), he or she must deploy the follower to a featurewhich already contains a follower of the same type (farmer to a farmer, thief to athief, knight to a knight)"You don't have to do option "A" at all. Got it. Thanks!
