Title: Print whole rules and annotated rules from wikicarpedia
Post by: joanBC on October 27, 2021, 02:11:50 AM
Hi,

I would like to have in hand the whole rules and its annotations from the wikicarpedia during match. Base game and its expansions (major and minor)
I figure this would make for a long document/book but it is better to have a book "at-playing-time" than a laptop connected on-line to check for a picky-rule or exception.
I know there is de S-CAR 7.4 document, which looks like a solution to me, but everywhere in the forum says this doc is outdated.

So, Is there a way to print the rules and its valuable annotations into a single doc from wikicarpedia?
I have seen a link to render a printable version of rule on display, but that is rule by rule!

Thanks

That would be amazing, but I don't think it is possible from WICA. Printing the order of play and scoring during turn sequence could be enough though ?

If you speak French, you can use the printable French rules summary I created:

That is what I thought. I've already printed order of play. And it is really nice. I wonder how outdated de S-CAR 7.4 doc is actually.

I'm so-so in French but fornutalely my team mates are really good in French so this could be an option. I downloaded the doc and it looks stunning and seem quiet complet... Thank you.

Well... The CAR hasn't been updated since may 2015, so it contains C1 rules, not C2, it misses some major and a lot of minor expansions, it also misses a lot of rule clarifications we could get since 2015. It is a wonderful document, but sadly it isn't accurate anymore  :-[

CAR v7.4 is from May 22nd 2015 so it is missing a few C1 expansions, all the C2 expansions and all the clarifications and rules updates since.

I could try to create a master page that includes all the other pages to print one file only with rules and clarifications. The issue is that HTML does not allow you to control page breaks, so the resulting document would not provide great results. This is something that we tried to solve since minute one but none of the printing expansions worked properly. :'(

You can try this page with C1 base game + major expansions to see what I mean.

We revisit the issue from time to time to see if there is any change though.
