Mage and Witch
« on: November 16, 2021, 06:13:13 AM »
On the WikiCarPedia page for Mage and Witch, the last paragraph in the Placing a tile section says:

If you cause both magic figures to be occupying the same feature, you must immediately move one of the magic figures. If this same tile placement would also cause a feature to be scored, you must move the magic figure before scoring the feature.

The previous paragraphs specifically talk about placing a tile with a Magic logo on them.

My assumption is that the tile in the third paragraph does not have to have the logo on it.

If there is an incomplete city with a Mage on it AND another incomplete city next to it with a Witch on it, placing a non-logo tile that connects the two cities would trigger the requirement to move one of the magic figures.

If this happens with a non-logo tile, can you move one of the magic figure to another incomplete feature, or do you have to set it aside?

Your interpretation is correct.

In that case, you act just like if the tile had a magic logo: you move the mage or witch to another incomplete road or city  :yellow-meeple:

When you are forced to move the Mage or the Witch, you only put it aside if there is no incomplete city or road you could use as destination.

Well, this is Carcassonne, soooo, if the joined city will score point for someone else, I will move the Mage to an incomplete city that I control  :D, OR, if the joined city will score points for me, I will move the Witch to an incomplete city of the player who put the Witch in the city I just joined  >:D! Then, the city can be scored as normal!

The Mage loves to stay at home but the Witch loves pay a visit to any of your opponents... You know.  ;)
