This is one open issue I asked HiG some time ago but got no reply yet.

We have several possibilities in this case:
1) The watchtower considers the German castle as one tile and counted once no matter if it occupies one or two adjacent spaces.
2) The watchtower considers the German castle as one tile but it is counted twice if occupying two adjacent spaces.
3) The watchtower considers the German castle like two square tiles considering the features/meeples on its two halves separately --> This can lead to odd cases when onely one half is adjacent to the watchtower when dealing with meeples on farms spanning across the two spaces or placed in the German castle, also when dealing with long roads on Leipzig tiles and the meeples on them. Are long roads counted one or twice? Are meeples on features on features present in both halves counted once or twice?

We are considering here option #1, which seems simpler. Option #2 seems weird since there is no precendent in Carcassonne. Option #3 is very problematic since meeple location in a feature suddenly becomes relevant and there is no precent for this case either.

So in option #1 we do the following mapping:
* One or two Halflings in an adjacent space are considered as one tile.
* A double-sized tile occupying one or two adjacent spaces are considered as one tile.

Any comments?

Hmm. Due to we have clarification by Hig. That road started on first half of double tile of German castle and ended on same tile but on second half is counted as two then we have pattern how to count it, haven't we?
