How many extra turns are there?

(1/2) > >>

PapaGeek:
When you expand a feature that has your builder on it, you get a second / additional / extra turn.

The 20th Anniversary Expansion includes 5 tiles that will give you an extra turn after you place that tile with its arrow pointing to another tile.

The Saint Nicholas Scoring Board has two point values that will give you an extra turn if you are the first player to reach 24 points or last player to reach 6 points.

Are there any other features / expansions that allow you to draw and place another tile during your turn?

One of the Messages in Messenger mini.

Fiddling with Bazaars can nest numerous extra turns as well.

There is a small difference between
1. The double turn (it is an extended turn where you play two tiles)
2. The extra turns provided by other expansions:
   - Mini #2 - The Messengers
   - 20th Anniversary Expansion
   - Saint Nicholas Scoring Board
3. The nested bazaar round

We have clarifications about how double turns mix with bazaars and messages:
* Each player in a bazaar round may have a double turn even if the active player was performing a double turn.
* A message triggering an extra turn may become an double turn even if the active player was performing a double turn.

In the other cases, it would be recommendable to defer the extra turn until the current turn ends. Note a bazaar round may take place between the first and second part of a double turn, as per the rules provided by HiG. So plenty of gaps to fill.

DIN0:
Yes that's right. It I recall, back in the day you could do around 8 turns in a single one if you got the right combination of tiles. Since then, and especially recently, there were a lot of extra turn mechanics added, making the potential that much greater. And all of the new additions are true extra turns, not the pseudo ones from builder or bazaar.
It would be interesting to calculate the maximum possible turns one can condense into a single turn.
