Two doubts about The Toolkeepers' basic rules

[joe_abbot]

This is probably very naive of me but I'd like to be sure.



1. Let's say I close a road by using a tile with a crossroad in it. Am I allowed to immediately place a toolhouse on the newly placed tile, triggering the "Tool raising" score? My understanding is that I am allowed but could you please confirm it to me? In the example Red places B, then plays a toolhouse on it and gets 5 points. Is it correct?

2. During the final scoring "you get points for all incomplete roads connected to your tollhouse". You don't have to have meeples on the incomplete road, right? They just have to start/end on your toolhouse, is this correct?

Yes, you can place a tollhouse on the crossroads with a village of a tile just placed but you can't place a wooden meeple on this turn (if you are playing with more expansions, this action would be extended to placing other figures and or other tokens, but you would be allowed to place your phantom). There is no restriction in the rules to prevent you from doing this if the tile is completing one or more roads.

Toolhouses don't require meeples to be placed or to score points. They belong to players themselves and score points on their own.
