Title: La Porxada: Swap Follower
Post by: Bumsakalaka on May 31, 2022, 11:36:51 PM
I know, this expansion is "wanted to be official to allows to sell copies on ebay" so I place my question here.


Rules copied from WiCa


Quote
If the player chose to swap followers after placing this tile, the player may exchange one of his own followers with a follower of another player. Both followers must be currently in play.
and later in foot notes
Quote

The rules do not specify any restriction for the chosen follower, so you may choose one of your followers already placed on a tile or in your supply.


Does it mean: When want to swap followers I (as red) can swap meeple with other player (blue) when:
A. When at least 1 red meeple and 1 blue meeple is placed on board

And when want to swap I can choose
B. Any of my red meeples on board and/or on supply
C. Any of other player meeples (blue) only on board?


This has no sense why this can not be applied also for other player (blue), right?
If rules not specify how to choose my (red) meeple, how they restrict other player (blue) meeple to choose?


cheers :D

I think this is a mistake :o

If the rule specify that "Both followers must be currently in play", then this is a restriction implying that you cannot swap a follower from supply...?

You say it. Currently in play means on board, not supply.

Only the Seduction Token in The Catapult allows you to swap a meeple on the board with another in your supply:

Exactly, but La Porxada's footnote 4 in WICA states the contrary, as mentioned by Bumsakalaka. This footnote should be removed I think

Footnote corrected:

Thanks for the heads-up!
