Baobab completion

So, no scoring at all when a baobab is completed? Just two tokens when it's started,and two when finished. I can see consistency with paths and bush in not scoring the number of tiles, as is done for cloisters in standard game, but I'd expected to see scoring table as for paths and bush, with possible addition, as hinted at in ref, to the use of additional animal tokens --Wolnic (talk) 22:07, 26 October 2018 (UTC)

Yes, there is explicit statement in the manual that player gets no points that I have missed. I have added this sentence. --MajFrost (talk) 18:37, 28 October 2018 (UTC)

If the player scores no points for completing the baobab, the implication could be that there is no score to boost by using the two received waterhole tokens. --Wolnic (talk) 22:32, 28 October 2018 (UTC)

The same tile that completes baobab could also complete other feature belonging to the same player. --MajFrost (talk) 06:30, 29 October 2018 (UTC)

Who gets tokens for baobab

Are the 2 end tokens awarded to the player *on the baobab tile*, or the player that *completes the feature* by placing the last tile?

I think it is pretty clear in the example. I think it is clear across whole manual that it is not important who place the tile, but who occupies the feature. --MajFrost (talk) 18:54, 28 October 2018 (UTC)

Final Scoring for animal tokens

Is that "in the player's supply"?

Yes. I have removed the reference and added "from his supply" to the sentence. --MajFrost (talk) 18:54, 28 October 2018 (UTC)

Scoring waterhole

Is it tokens or different species? Both words are used.

I do not see those words in current version. In general it does not matter. Players/Players get 3 points for whole waterhole. --MajFrost (talk) 18:54, 28 October 2018 (UTC)

It states tokens in the main body, but species in the example description. plus it states in the Special Case that when creating a new waterhole diagonaly opposite an existing one, that this situation can lead to the same species being present on the same waterhole when it is completed. --Wolnic (talk) 22:26, 28 October 2018 (UTC)

Ok, it is not scoring, but in tile placement. I have corrected example to follow german manual. It states token there.

Ranger clarification

When placing a tile where Ranger is, the rule says can move the Ranger, but I think it should be must. Otherwise, what do you do with the Ranger?

Yes, "must". Corrected. --MajFrost (talk) 18:54, 28 October 2018 (UTC)

Waterhole creation

Clarification required in text that a player can't place a waterhole unless they have a meeple available in their supply? As this comes before scoring a completed feature, the player can't score, get a meeple back, and then place it on the waterhole.

Yes, I think consistent with every other Carc and clear in the manual. Also visible in summary. We can put some note in "special cases" section if there are opinions that it is not clear enough. Or add annotation in summary next to "place a meeple".
