The [[Z Man Games|'''ZMG''']] rules differ from the [[Hans_im_Glück|'''HiG''']] rules and from 1st edition rules too. The [[Z Man Games|'''ZMG''']] rules consider the additional meeple can be placed on any tile of a feature with another meeple belonging to the player. The original rules for Caracassonne I and II consider the additional meeple is placed next to another meeple belonging to the player, that is, both meeples are on the same feature on the same tile. This discrepancy can be the result of a mistranslation since the option 'A' example shows the additional meeples are placed on the same tile as another players' meeples. The example is also the same as for the first edition rules. | The [[Z Man Games|'''ZMG''']] rules differ from the [[Hans_im_Glück|'''HiG''']] rules and from 1st edition rules too.

This discrepancy has clear implications, for example, in the interactions with [[The Princess and The Dragon|'''Exp. 3 - The Princess and the Dragon''']] and [[The Tower|'''Exp. 4 - The Tower''']], since the [[Z Man Games|'''ZMG''']] rules allow players to place additional meeples on a different tile than the meeple previosuly present in a feature. This would allow players to increment their odds against the dragon or the tower. | |||
