- the only thing that the river does is divide fields,
Well...that could be one possibility...another is the River could simply have been some sort of bonus points for farmers who had the river running through their farm...watering livestock...irrigation...tranport of goods, etc. Who knows?
Sure, visually it makes sense that the river divides fields. But that line of reasoning doesn't even always hold up, as not all pig herds are actually pig herds...

It applies here as well.
But if Carcassonne operated solely on a basis of "common sense" then we would not need to have a CAR of 300 pages and 470 footnotes.

What makes you think that? Since expansions rarely are playtested with eachother there will be many situations which are strange. I do, however, think that the CAR does hold a lot of superfluous pages and paragraphes.Anyway, rivers divide fields. If you do not believe me I encourage you to go outside and find out for yourself.
I didn't know there was a river in the winter edition?
