Official Rules / Re: English Rules for Roi, Comte et Brigand
« on: February 21, 2013, 08:53:48 PM »
At the Carcassonne-Forum are the rules in other languages.
Please look at Carcassonne - Sonder-Editionen-Special Editions - Die BigBoxen

The English rules for the BigBox2 (2008):

I liked the Historical Scenarios II with Troja and the great chineese wall.
The Cities and Knights - I didn't like it much.

All the tiles in the BixBox4 have the other linen grid of paper and are darker.
I don't like the green from the BigBox4 tiles

Hi gantry,

I need obervet03 as a moderator for the rules.
He helped me since month with the correction reading and translation.
And my English grammar... :P

3247
Scott,

is it possible to put the part of the forum "News and Events" at the "Recent topics" at the first page, too?

There are only 5 "Recent topics" but not the "News and Events".

News and Events / ebay trader sells CornCircles II as a punched sheet
« on: February 20, 2013, 11:04:02 AM »
A German ebay trader sells CornCircles II as a 6-tile punched sheet.

I called and wrote some emails with HiG - Georg Wild, today.
He said that HiG had never published the CornCircles II as a 6-tile punched sheet. So the ebay tader is doing illegal things.

Please members report this to ebay.

And again - you all have to be careful with all the ebay traders who sells such suspect things.

If you are not sure, then ask before you buy it.

At the moment the HiG-Shop CundCo don't sell the CornCircles I. But wait, perhaps in some month we have it there again.

Only the CornCircles I were published as a 6-tile punched sheet by HiG.

Greetings

Thanks Fritz_Spinne,
my cat decided yesterday to sleep at my keyboard, so I can't answer anymore.
------------------------------------------
Carcking,
The examples from Christof Tisch also the reply from him at BGG (they are not the answer for the question from obervet03 - I don't marked them in my green)
I think the examples belonges to the CAR. If you like as a big footnote.
--------------------------------------------
 BLUE - question
GREEN - answer
BLACK - all the rest - information, comments....

Question 4:
.In the Ferries, I have interpreted that a ferry can only be moved if a new tile is placed and the wooden ferry itself is a part of that road (and the first ferry along that road).
In other words, if the road that was just extended ends at the lake, and the ferry piece is connecting two of the OTHER segments, the ferry CANNOT be moved.
Is this correct?
Or can the ferry be moved when ANY of the road segments on that lake are extended?


Here are some links to BGG:

Christof Tisch makes the graphics and the design of the rules for Carcassonne also he is creating some of the meeples. His answers are official.

General / Re: Fictitious Box Images
« on: February 19, 2013, 02:43:32 PM »
Scott, I like the image for the plague as a picture for a tuck-box.
But I think if we put such images at the first page from the CAR, the people would think "oh is there a new expansion?".

Question 3:
What are the actual rules for the Wheel of Fortune Famine sector? A previous clarification said that the
statement “in the same way as farms are scored at final scoring” means that a majority of farmers is required.
However, it seems like this is the opposite of the Tax sector, where a majority is NOT required to get the
points for knights. Plus, the rule says that the player scores “for each of his FARMERS,” not each farm. It
seems like each farmer should score points, and that the “end of game” comment should mean that bonuses are
given for pigs, castles, etc. (NOT that a majority is required).

I have to say, that I don't know the answer.
I think we have some answers at the HiG-Chat or at Spielbox-forum. I have to look.

You can buy it at the CundCo Shop from HiG.

Question 2:
Q: Can a flier land on a magic portal?
A: No, the flier can only land on an unfinished road, city or an unfinished cloister. A magic portal is an other feature.

Q: Is a magic portal ever considered completed?
A: The magic portal is a separate feature, that is a portal... The follower can only go through the portal and not build something on the magic portal, but only one follower can go through it.

If you play with the phantom as a second follower and the first (wooden) follower goes through the magic portal (the first follower claimed the magic portal) then the phantom can't go through the magic portal.
Answer from Georg Wild - 14 02 2013.

obervet03 gave me some interesting questions.
I have already some answers, because some parts I became the answers from Georg Wild some time ago and some answers are the rules itself.

Question 1:
Q: Can the mayor be a flier?
A:Yes the mayor is a follower and can fly, but the mayor can only land on a not finished city. If there is not an unfinished city then the turn is over and the mayor goes back to the players supply.
The answer gave me Georg Wild at one of our xxxx calls.

one of my questions to Georg Wild
Q: Can the mayor also go through the magic portal?
A:Yes the mayor is a follower and can go through the magic portal, but the mayor can only be placed on a not finished and unclimed city.

Information from Georg Wild - 14 02 2013:
The player scores 0 Points for a finished city without any pennants and with the mayor in it.
The mayor can only be placed in a city not in a castle.
(This sentence is difficult to the rule from the BigBox3.)
