Maybe we will have the opportunity to enjoy snowed gardens and  abbots. Who knows if a frozen river...  ;D

This means that we would have:
* Winter Edition Download Version (2011) - The C1-ish one.
* Winter Edition (2012) - The C2-ish one.
* Winter Edition v2? (2020) - The ?-ish one.

As per the C1 rules, the wagon should be placed on the "road to Kiev" (Solovei's road) before being able to reach the city when the road network is completed.

But that can never happen: as soon as the wagon touches the road with the Solovei Razboynik tile, it will be trapped. In the pictures you are skipping the road altogether and reaching for the city in one step when there are two steps...

I quote the whole post resizing the images.

I will reply in the following post...

Hmm... that means a lot of meeples could be caught on the tiles when playing with the Count of Carcassonne and are not careful  >:D

One more thing I haven't seen answered anywhere, but suspect the answer:
Now that we know for sure that the road is continuous, wagon should be able to drive through in the sense that the tree itself doesn't block its movement. But the question is would the wagon be sucked up when trying to pass?

Imagine a scenario where there is a road with Solovei razboynik (in the attachment 1). Tile with red circle was just placed and finished the other road with wagon. Can wagon drive through the adjacent Solovei razboynik road to the city? Or would it get trapped on its way? (attachment 2). I would say it can drive through as without being trapped because it is just "passing by" and is not actually deployed to the road.

There is one more potential question that came to my mind regarding this tile: As I understand it, you can extend the road with Solovei razboynik and place a meeple on it, but it would immediately get sucked onto the tile. This should make the road unoccupied again and you should then be able to place a phantom on the same road (trapped again of course). I have no idea why anyone would do this, but is this possible as I suspect it is  :P ?


Yes, it seems the trapping effect is automatic so this could be possible wasting one of your meeples and your phantom by placing them on the road to Kiev  ;)

I updated some weeks ago the Order of Play to include all those trapping events for Solovey Razboynik (TREE TRAP) and Vodyanoy (LAKE TRAP).

http://wikicarpedia.com/index.php/Order_of_Play

This means you could trigger the Solovei Razboynik trapping action not only by placing a tile or placing a meeple (on the wrong road) but also by placing a wooden bridge, by placing or moving a ferry, by placing a tunnel token, by deploying a meeple form Carcassonne to the wrong road or by moving the wagon to the wrong road.

The active player can always be the referee in any dispute...  ;)

The problem is if he/she is an interested party too.  >:D

I Play both (but more at the C2 and sometime mix C1 and C2)

I'm actually on a big project that I'll maybe talk when it will be more finished (maybe it will take some years ^^).

A part of it is to laser cut tiles, and for that I have to recreate some tiles into a compatible format for the laser printer.
So is there any problem if I use tiles created on this forum? Have I to contact each creator of fan extensions to ask permission to do so?

I prefer asking before make a mistake :)

Meeply yours

Hi tp10053,

Some comments to the specialized press about the Russian Promos?

;D

PS: I added a little clarification to WICA about this particular case.

And the official reponse privided by Hobby World is...

Q: Does the Solovei Razboynik tree divide the road into two separate segments?
A: No. It is still considered a single road.

So, the road passes behind the tree uninterrupted. There is one single road segment on the tile.

Thank you so much, Murphy013!!!

EDIT: Added excerpt from emails exchanged with Hobby World.

+1 merit from me

A criminal investigation...

Was Solovei Razboynik splitting the road? Was the road still one even if visually blocked by the tree? Why didn'tthe road pass by in front of the tree? Legend vs. visuals vs. game mechanics...

;D

Normally, each player decides the order in which to score their features.

The order of scoring is specified by the active player if multiple features with one meeple are scored as a result of one tile placement when playing with The Barber-Surgeons.

http://wikicarpedia.com/index.php/The_Barber-Surgeons#3._After_scoring_a_feature

When a small city is completed, the city owner decides what to do: score vs. convert into a castle. Here the issue is that you have several owners and each of them may decide different actions, and you have to satisfy them all.

The Marketplace / Re: Base game original art - unusual score track
« on: July 09, 2020, 04:13:43 AM »
Not the 70 point score track, sorry. It is the 50 point score track numbered 5, 10, 15 up to 50.

All 40 meeples, 72 tiles, rules and box.

£20.00 + shipping.

PM  me if interested

Hi Halfling!

Are you referring to the grey 50-space score track (top center)?




Cheers!

[238.] What happens with field scoring if there are 2 castle tokens on the same small city?

Unexplored territory again,...

You should consider only one castle for farm scoring for practical reasons. There may not be two castles in the same location unless you are playing a futuristic version in 4D.  ;)

The idea of stacking the castles is just to make sure all the players sharing a castle used one castle token each as requested. That is, no one has an extra castle token because they are piggybacking on the castle token placed by first player converting the small city into a castle.
