Some random questions
-
Good Neighbors - If one player or both players have a Pilgrimage Site, are the resources distributed first or are the cards revealed first?
First the cards are revealed, then the resources are distributed.
-
Wolfgang the Street Performer - Do both adjacent regions receive 1 resource each, even though none of the two numbers was rolled, or does only an adjacent region whose number was rolled receive 1 resource?
The regions adjacent to Wolfgang can receive 1 resource each (provided that there's room for it and the player wants it). The number rolled with the production die is irrelevant.
-
Placed Cards - Some of the displayed cards are effective only if a certain other card is also present. What happens to such cards if the required other card is removed?
These cards stay in place and continue to be effective. Requirements must be met only at the moment the cards are played; later they are irrelevant.
-
Castle - In the Theme Game, may I remove the Castle and then build it again, so that the opponent can't build it?
You may remove the Castle and build it again. This, however, will not prevent the opponent from building a Castle, because in the Theme Game a removed Castle is placed face up again.
-
Civil War - Can the Knight Token or the Windmill Token already change ownership when the passive player has removed a Unit but the active player still has to remove one?
No. The consequences are resolved only after both players have selected a Unit.
-
Merchant's residences (in general) - How much does it cost to place a residence?
It costs nothing. You only have to meet the requirements for it.
-
Stone of Wisdom - Can I build Pirate Fleets after the Stone of Wisdom is built?
Yes.
Note: Pirate Fleets belong to the theme sets "Knights & Merchants" and "Science & Progress", which are part of the Catan Card Game – Expansion Set.
-
Cannon - Can I build 2 Cannons?
Yes.
-
Building Permits - There are 3 Building Permits on a 2x2 square: 2 green ones (values: 0 and 1) and a red one (value: 2). May Green build a building that covers 4 squares, although his 2 Building Permits combined have a lower value than the red one?
No. In case of Building Permits, all that matters is their value, not how many of them there are.
-
Wizard - Can I cast a magic spell with the help of a Wizard and then use resources to replenish him with Magic Power, all on one and the same turn?
Yes.
