We got the big box from 2016 and have been reading the rules and the conplete annoteded rules and read this forum, but we havent found a answer that is 100%.

Builder and messages
Cases:
1.I place a «ccrr» tile and i expand my city with a builder.
2.because of the builder i get to draw another tile and complete my city and score xx points.
3.i score xx points and get a message «7» draw another tile.
Is this allowed? So that its possible to draw 3 tiles on my same turn?

Another case:
1. I place a «ccrr» tile and complete a feature, i score enough points to get a message.
2. Bec of the message i get another tile which i use to expand my city which has a builder in it.
3. And because of the the builder i get another tile.
Is this allowed? So that its possible to draw 3 tiles on my same turn?

Or am i wrong? And can someone explain how we should handle the case with builder and the message 7 «new tile».

Hi Mikki1211,

Yes you can get 3 tiles on the same turn due to builder and message/dispatch tile. Comment 430 in the CAR 7.4 on page 162 covers this possibility.

regards Halfling

And just to be sure, it does not matter which order things happen in?
So both my cases are correct?

And we have read to comment i CAR but did not 100% understand it.

?

correct, either order is possible and legal.....and will frustrate opponents!

I have read it somewhere that you even can do 8 tiles in 1 round.
Well order does matter ;)Sometimes it depends what the score is you will get from a feature so you can count it out to get the message tile

Sinscerly, i have no idea what u are talking about, can you please explain the situation?
So you don’t complicate an already even more complicated situation.

We still have a little argument over this, and we are 99% sure what the answer is, but we need someone to confirm, so there is no room for misunderstandings. At all

Can someone confirm that the maximum tiles 1player can place during his turn is 3?
And its not possible to place 4 tiles.
And if there is a way to get MORE than 3 tiles on 1 turn, please explain how.

We have the following expensions.
Big box 2014
Original game
Inns and cathedrals
Traders and builders
The tower
Abbey and mayor
River 1
Crop circles( not sure 1 or 2)
Flier
Goldmines
Magewitch

I agree with Halfling, but with other expansions like "bridges castles bazaars" you can get more tiles in one round. But with only messangers and traders and builders I think you cannot get more then 3 tiles.
