The Pope of Avignon figure remains in your city and awaits its completion. He grants you a bonus for each tile in the city. Additionally, if you have a Cathedral, you receive an extra bonus for each coat of arms in the city. Be aware for the Cathars, as their presence will cause the Pope to leave your city for another.

In the history of the Roman Catholic Church, the Avignon Papacy was the period from 1309 to 1377, during which seven popes, all French, resided in Avignon, France. The city of Avignon flourished because of this, in both cultural aspects and population growth.

The people living around the city of Carcassonne have mixed opinions about this. Some are even willing to lay siege to the city to force the Pope move to another city.

Rules

Preparation

The Avignon City tile is mixed in with the other land tiles.

Place the Pope to one side of the playing area

Gameplay

Unknown feature AvignonKeysSymbols

1. Placing a tile

Whenever you draw a tile, place it normally.

2. Placing a meeple

When the Avignon City tile is drawn and laid, the player who laid the tile must deploy the Pope onto the city segment of the Avignon City tile instead of ‘moving the wood’ for his turn. This player, who deploys the Pope to the Avignon city tile for the first time, receives an immediate bonus of 1 point.

3. Scoring a feature

A completed city that contains the Pope on one of its city segments scores an additional point for every tile in the completed city.

After scoring, the Pope is redeployed by the player who completed the city to any incomplete city. If there is none, it waits for first tile with city segment, where it will be redeployed.

File:...

Example X: You scores 11 points for city with the Pope (8 points for city + 3 points for the Pope bonus). 3 tiles city, middle tile with coat of arms.

Final Scoring

The Pope does not affect scoring of unfinished city.

1. Introduction

This Expansion Selector allows you to pick what expansions (or parts of them) to use in the reference pages of WICA. According to your selection, the Order of Play and Scoring sections will be adapted. This way, you can customize WICA to suit your game without any hinderance from the expansions left out.

As hinted above, the expansions combining multiple elements permit a fine-grain selection of its elements. For example, you can choose the abbey tiles and the wagon from "Abbey & Mayor" and to leave out the barn and the mayor.

2. Use Guide

The selector has several tabs and below there is an area that lists the current selection at all times, no matter the tab displayed.

You can click on any tab label to go to the desired tab. Additional clicks on a selected tab will collapse it and expand it back in order to access the selector when needed. Switching to another tab will expand the selector automatically.

The following sections describe the tabs and their functionality.

2.1. "Expansions" tabs

The first three (or four) tabs from the left allow you to pick expansions in full or partially when possible.

• Major expansions: lists all official major expansions by HiG.
• Minor expansions: lists all official minor expansions by HiG and some of their licensed equivalents.
• Other expansions: lists the rest of licensed and unofficial expansions as well as those Print & Play and Cut & Play expansions released by HiG.
• Fan expansions: lists some fan-made expansions. This tab may not be available in some cases.

These tabs show a listing of expansions where each label is preceded by a checkbox to allow its selection and deselection if full.

Those expansions with various components show a clickable "[+]" symbol after them when closed or "[–]" when open. In the latter case, all the components are displayed and can be selected and deselected individually.

Each tab has a text label in accordance with the format "Group (X/Y)" in order to identify the set of expansions listed (indicated by Group), the number of expansions selected (represented by X) and the total number available (represented by Y).

2.2. "Quick Selectors" tab

This is the fourth tab from the left. It allows you to choose from a predefined list of available expansions sets. This tab contains the following elements:

• A dropdown list and a "Select Expansions" button: They allow you select and load a predefined expansion bundle, such as a Big Box or all the expansions for the New Edition.
• The "Clear All" button empties your current with one click.
• The "Select All" button selects all the expansions available with one click.

2.3. "Filters" tab

This is the fifth tab from the left. It allows you to choose what Carcassonne editions are displayed and your preferred edition. The editions considered are the 1st Edition (C1), the New Edition (C2+C3), and the Winter Edition (WE), which is included in a creative way if some of its expansions are of interest.

The tab displays two panels:

• "Show Editions" panel: it contains a checkbox for each edition available (C1, C2+C3 and WE.) The selector will show the expansions belonging to the checked editions only. For example, if the 1st edition (C1) checkbox is selected, expansions such as "The Wheel Of Fortune" or "Halflings" will be eligible in the Expansion Selector, otherwise they will not be available for selection. At least one edition has to be selected, thus they cannot be deselected at the same time.
• "Preferred Edition" panel: it contains a set of radio buttons for the 1st Edition (C1), the New Edition (C2+C3) and the Winter Edition. The radio button selected will indicate the Expansion Selector which edition has precedence over the other when:
  • Describing the Game Reference, the Order of Play, the Scoring rules and Game Figures: If there are differences between editions, the preferred edition rules and wording will be displayed. For example, the movement of the dragon will be displayed in different steps in the Order of Play depending on whether C1 or C2+C3 is selected.
  • Displaying graphics in the Scoring sections: For expansions available in both editions, the images shown will correspond to the selected edition. Images from an expansion only existing in one edition will not change.

  The radio button for an edition will be enabled only if such an edition is available, that is, it is selected in the "Show Editions" panel.
  It also includes a checkbox with the label "Mark rules adaptations": If checked, all the rules displayed in the Game Reference, the Order of Play, and the Game Figures not corresponding to the preferred edition will be highlighted.

This tab shows a label similar to "Filters (C1/C2+C3/WE) #" that lists all the editions selected in parentheses and one of them is underlined, indicating that it is the preferred one. The hash sign "#" is present if rules adaptations are highlighted.

2.4. Help

General rules

The Pope of Avignon is a neutral figure.
In the case that the Pope of Avignon is removed from the game, player during which turn it happen decide to which other uncomplete city is redeployed.

The Pope of Avignon grants bonus for tiles. Bonus for coat of arms is granted only when any catholic monastic building is in the completed city with the Pope.

File:...

You scores 18 points (12 points for city and the Popo bonus 5 points for tiles and 1 point for coat of arm) for this city with the Pope and a catholic building. 5 tiles city, one monastery, 1 coat of arms on CCxx tile.

Exp. 1 - Inns & Cathedrals

The Pope's bonus to a city's score is an addition to the Cathedral's bonus. In this case, each tile and also each pennant is worth 4 points.

Exp. 7 - The Catapult

This tile included as part of The Catapult expansion functions in the same way as Cathar or a Siege tile for the purposes of forcing the Pope over to another city (see ‘Forcing the Pope over to another city’ section). When these rules mention a Cathar or Siege tile affecting the movement of the Pope, it also assumes that this one tile from The Catapult be considered a Cathar or Siege tile. However, this one tile does not carry any scoring penalties that are part of regular Cathar or Siege tiles.
