Dear Andreas,

Thank you, I am just desperate
Thank you also for building another C, it made me read teh rules and realize we can build more than 2 C provided no more than 2 on the board at the same time.

Please find hereafter West turn 13.

S251 - 252 = 1
S250 - 251 = 1
S251 π C = 10
N212 - H13 = 3
N-H25 - H14 = 2
N-H24 - H15 = 2
E218 - 219 = 1

Total = 20. Still desperate but will fight with tooth and nails

Kind Regards
Andre

Dear Andre,

at the orginal rules you can build more than 2 but the forum rules says you can build only 2.

@Klaus: Is that correct?

We should discuss about this ☺

King regards

Hello to everybody,

at the orginal rules you can build more than 2 but the forum rules says you can build only 2.

@Klaus: Is that correct?

yes, that's correct. It was one of the two agreements we made at the beginning. Besides the practice of Andre's recommendation (decreased reduction of action points due to occupied Quest spaces: 2-4-8-12-20) we limited the building of new pieces which are not on the board at the beginning of a match, to two pieces of every kind. In addition the rebuilding of captured ships or other pieces isn't allowed, too. You find the explanation of the rule change on this website.

Yes, it would be possible to make a different agreement for another(!) match. But I don't recommend that. Otherwise it could be an advantage to lose a piece (a ship....). The likelihood is high that the one who lost a ship will put this ship back to the board on a better place in his next turn!

Kind regards

Klaus

Dear Everyone,

I am sorry, I did not recall this special rule, I only recalled the rule cannot build ships, but its OK, I can redo my turn. When a game takes so long (over 7 months now), we tend to forget new special rules. We should have put them on the 1st post of the game - next time.

I have to go for a few days so I will redo my last turn when I return.

Kind Regards
Andre

Hi Everyone,
I want to make sure I understand —

I understand about the ships. We are given the number of ships we have at the start and cannot make more ships.

I am still not sure I understand fully the building of developed of pieces during the game.
Developed pieces are ones that can be made (Chariots, Catapults, Seige Engines)

Please clarify:
During the game I can have a maximum of two of each developed pieces on the board.

The question is:
If I build two of a developed piece (for example two Chariots), if one or both are captured - can I make more - as long as I do not have more than two of each developed piece in play at any time.
OR
Can I only MAKE two developed pieces of each type - and if one is captured I cannot make more. I can only make two of each developed pieces per-game.

Thanks for the clarification.
All the best,
George

Yes George, only two of each developed pieces per game. So the rebuilding of captured pieces won't be possible. I informed you about the additional agreements by email before our match. But it's good that we talk about it now again.

Kind regards
Klaus

[George]

Thanks for the clarification Klaus.
Just want to make sure I understand correctly.
