Big Top in JCZ
« on: October 18, 2021, 12:31:42 AM »
Currently started implementation of Circus into JCZ 5.8.x as Add-on with C1 tiles versions.
Here is one sneak-peak
There is also an issue with HiG clarification about Ringmaster bonus. They said, that Ringmaster can get his bonus only on features of basic game (Road/City/Monastery-Basic Game/Field). On all other features it is normal meeple and he don't get bonus when finished feature.
So I think, it will be good to have option for variant on which features will get Ringmaster bonuses. On Basic Game or on All features (including fan expansion features).
What do you think?

You know I find this restriction lame and runs easily into conflict with basic features on double-sized tiles of Halflings (will HiG deny the bonus in these cases too?). Fortunately, these conflicts do not affect JCZ as of yet...

Having the two options would be great:
* Ringmaster bonus for basic-game features only (default)
* Ringmaster bonus for all features

Let's see if HiG reconsider their position after our complaints.

As I wrote, this has to be consider. Because one is clarification by HiG and one is how we understand that stuping rule sentense :)

Poor stupid sentence! Who could have imagined what they meant by this?

The ringmaster counts as a normal meeple. He has the same uses as a normal meeple in all expansions.

Yes, that's a great thing!
Too bad HiG still didn't approved C1 conversion of it on CarcF so it can't be used yet. But everything is programmed and soon thanks to Bumsakalaka's Fancarpedia we will prepare C2 version of it like it is for watchtowers now :)

Yeah.
Fancarpedia is based to brings life for all fan expansions.
it is possible to make shapes for any expansion! And also possible to play it as Vanilla Tiles* in JCloisterZone.
When it will be time, then can be added (mean create support for new features or new game login in JCZ) and play this fan expansion as it's based.
This example is Wells and Robber's son expansions. And count.

*Vanilla tile - Carcassonne tile which have multiple features. In JCZ will be playable only supported features on tiles (like road/field/gold tokens/flying machine/magic portal....) but new features like (Pyrenees, Ocean, Watermill, Barracuda) is not yes supported by JCZ so this will not be playable.
