Title: Carcassonne Maps - France

Question regarding selling wine in Carcassonne Maps - France.
Can you use a chip you collect in the same turn to sell wine?

Judging by what I'm seeing on Wikicarpedia (https://wikicarpedia.com/index.php/Map-Chips_France), I think the answer is yes.

Thank you, Scott, for your prompt reply!

I had checked Wikipedia too, but I do not really understand the footnote. A more detailed clarification might be needed.

The "Sell Wine" action suffered several changes after its release. I sent them some comments because some discrepancies in the Map-Chips rules for the map fo France:
* The German version included the "Sell Wine" action in Step 1 (the same as in other Map Chips rules)
* The English version included the "Sell Wine" action in Step 3

After several rounds of corrections they made a new mistake and aligned the rules layout the other way round: And changed the German rules to follow the lead of the English ones. When I wrote to them about this, they just told me they wouldn't change it back even if it was preferable to leave it the way I was suggesting. So, I kept the preferred layout in WICA.

If you check the latest rules in PDF format, it seems odd that you trigger a direct scoring from a tile placement in 1. Placing a tile and you have to wait until 3. Scoring a feature in order to receive those points when selling wine but not when taking Map Chips from the board.

I updated the footnote but didn't add all this detail.

Thank you for the more detailed background of the footnote.
So I understand from this clarification that you can use the collected chips immediately in the same turn to sell wine.

Yes, no limitation was included in the rules and the turn sequence would be consistent with this too.

No problem. Happy to help!  ^-^
