Castles and wagons[Q1] Can a wagon placed in a castle move to a neighboring unoccupied feature after scoring?[A1] Yes, the wagon can move to a neighboring unoccupied feature after scoring.This is a step forward in adapting mechanics to the castle fief or vicinity. As a result German castles should follow the same lead when a wagon placed in a completed German castle is scored and moved. The wagon should be able to move to any valid unoccupied incomplete feature on the German castle tile or any adjacent tile.

We could also consider a German castle is stuck between two spaces (like a "normal" castle) and has 6 adjacent spaces Just kidding !

Previous clarificaiton will also add possibilities for ringmaster on Castle to get bonus if rules will be changes. HiG (Johanes) told that they will consider change of this rule. (Currently Ringmaster can get only bonus when placed on Road/City/Basic Game Monastery and Field on all other features will not get his bonus when scores).

Regarding German castles and ringmasters, there is a loophole in their reasoning IMHO: With the current rules, the ringmaster cannot receive bonus points if placed on a German castle because it is placed on a feature other than a road, a city, monastery or field. But what happens if you place the ringmaster on a road, city or field on the German castle tile itself? The ringmaster is complying with the requirements stated in the rules in order to get bonus points, however the geometry of the tile is different. Can HiG dismiss these cases? Ooops!I agree the ringmaster rules need a revision, or at least a clarification, regarding castles and German castles. The current decision seems so counterintuitive.
