Case 1:I'd prefer option a to be consistent with rules for other cases. But an option'd be that you keep the tiles instead of discarding them, so that in case of a triple turn (message + builder), you're still stuck with the same tiles and do not get the chance to draw new ones?
Case 2:I'd say option b to follow the mechanic. Option a would be more complicated to understand and apply, option b seems more intuitive.
Case 3:I think the option proposed by dirk2112 is more logical. Discarding a tiles comes after the WoF or peasant revolt action.Without a fortune teller, if you draw a WoF or Peasant revolt tile that cannot be placed, you still perform the WoF or revolt action before discarding it. With a fortune teller, if you draw a normal tile, a WoF tile and a revolt tile, you first chose a tile, then perfirm the WoF or revolt action only if you chosed the corresponding tile, and so I assume it's only then that, if the chosen tile can't be placed, you discard it, draw a new one, and play it (you can't play any of the two other tiles as you already chosed not to play them).This seems more consistent with the order of play and game mechanics. That way you avoid both cons you mentioned
If a player’s turn is extended via a builder, the player will NOT redraw for a new tile, but will instead use the second tile that was drawn at the beginning of his turn. If a player has multiple tiles due to having two Fortune Tellers, he must choose which tile to place for his double turn.
Therefore, you are not required to use only the tiles you drew thanks to the fortune teller. You may decide not to redraw/reuse tile and proceed with one of the tiles in your supply.Any thoughts?
If you discard your tiles every time you cannot place a tile, this would also allow you to change your mind and place a tile from your supply (abbey, German castle or Halfling).The open issue in my mind is that a player should be allowed to place an tile from their supply in the second part of their turn, thr same as there was no fortune teller involved.The rules read as follows:QuoteIf a player’s turn is extended via a builder, the player will NOT redraw for a new tile, but will instead use the second tile that was drawn at the beginning of his turn. If a player has multiple tiles due to having two Fortune Tellers, he must choose which tile to place for his double turn.So they indicate that if you want to draw a tile for your second part of your turn, don't do it. Instead you choose one of the tiles left from your draw at the beginning of your turn, if more than one left, and use it normally.Therefore, you are not required to use only the tiles you drew thanks to the fortune teller. You may decide not to redraw/reuse tile and proceed with one of the tiles in your supply.Any thoughts?
This is only stating that if you have drawn more than 1 tile because of your Fortune Teller(s), you are not allowed to draw additional tiles in your builder's turn.
All the rest is free interpretation and cannot be concluded from the way the rules are written.It is not clear whether he must use one of the remaining drawn tiles or if he can choose to place one of the special tiles in his supply.
