Some random questions
-
Dogma - Can I place a Dogma on a Secret Society that imitates a Library, Church, or University?
No. You may only place it directly on the Buildings listed on the card.
-
Pawnbroker - When can I pay back the costs for a Building that carries both a Pawnbroker and a Witch?
At any time during your own turn.
Note: The Witch belongs to the theme set "Wizards & Dragons", which is part of the Catan Card Game – Expansion Set.
-
Special Building Phase in a 5-6 Player Game - May a player who just finished his turn build during the special building phase as well?
No.
-
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.
-
Axel the Innovator - May I build the new building at a different location - for example, may I remove a road complement and then build a city expansion?
No. The new building replaces the removed building and thus must be placed at the location of the removed building.
-
Barbarian Stronghold - Do I have to pay gold for defense cards too?
- If you are the active player: yes - e.g. for Scout and Feeding of the Poor
- If you are the passive player: no - e.g. for the Bishop.
Note: The Feeding of the Poor action card belongs to the Artisans & Benefactors Expansion Set. On the card, the card is classified as "neutrel", this is an error. The card belongs to the class "Defense"
-
Templar Fortress - Does the Templar Fortress protect Dragons?
No.
Note: Dragons belong to the theme sets "Wizards & Dragons", which is part of the Catan Card Game – Expansion Set.
-
Seven and Robber - May I move the robber twice during my turn – the first time by rolling a “7” and the second time by playing a Knight Card?
Yes. Playing a Development Card is independent from the dice roll result.
-
Ships - May I build ships and roads on the coast that run parallel to each other?
No.
-
Ships - Is it allowed to build ships on the edges of the frame pieces? The question arises because the frame pieces aren't hexagonal in the new editions.
You may always build on the inner edge of the frame but never on the outer edge. On the frame itself, building is only possible at certain places.
