Title: Wording problem(?) in the Great City edict.
Post by: Adam B. on 18/10/20, 08:03pm

Hello!

I had a problem, with the Great City edict in the game. It wasn't clear to me based on the wording of the edict, that if in my biggest city, if I place a single tile adjacent to a mountain, that tile won't score, or the whole city will be ineligible for scoring from that point on. My opponent had the misfortune to try this out, so by now, I know, that it invalidates your whole city.

Maybe you could update the wording a bit, to make this more clear?

Thanks!:)

Thanks for the feedback. We can’t really change the wording from the publisher. It is not our prerogative.

At first I found the rules very clear but after more thoughts, I can see your interpretation now. I suppose though that for yours to be valid, there should be a comma before the that. This said, I am not a linguist.

By the way you can check the edicts on the Cartographers rules page (https://www.happymeeple.com/en/board-games/cartographers/rules/).
