Cathedrals in Germany (''Kathedralen in Deutschland'') was originally released by [[Hans im Glück]] in {{Year|2016}}.

This mini expansion, containing 6 well-known cathedrals in Germany, gives the players the opportunity to gain a respectable number of points with the help of archbishop and thieves. <ref>
{{IconWorld}}
The original rules use terms employed in the new edition: "highwayman" instead of "thief" and "field" instead of "farm." We are using the terms common to the 1st edition for the sake of consistency. This switch can be explained by the release date of this expansion, since it was coexisting with the new edition at that time.
</ref>

== Contents ==

* 6 new land tiles showing cathedrals in Germany.

== Rules ==

Each of the 6 cathedral tiles has 3 or 4 roads segments starting from the cathedral. <ref>
{{IconBook}}
Authors Note: Of course, the real cathedrals are located within their cities. We wanted to make the distinction since cathedrals already played a part in the first expansion '''{{InnsCathedralsLink|edition=C1|logo=noborder}}'''. Thus, the cathedrals in this expansion are standing in the farms and fulfill their own function. We are also aware that no cathedrals and archbishops exist in the Protestant church. We simplified the names for easier reading. Thank you for understanding.
</ref>

=== Preparation ===

Shuffle the six new Land tiles showing the cathedrals with those from the base game.  This expansion has been developed for the Carcassonne base game and its rules still apply <ref>
{{IconWorld}} 
'''Question''': If you play with German Cathedrals and Cult Places, do the German Cathedrals act as a kind of monastery? '''Answer''': No, there is no interaction as there is between monasteries/cloisters and cult places
</ref>.

=== Placing a tile ===

When you draw a Land tile showing a cathedral, place it according to the normal rules.

=== Deploying a follower ===

After placing a Land tile showing a cathedral, you may place one of your meeples on it according to the normal rules. You may place it on a road, in a farm, or on the cathedral as archbishop.

=== Scoring ===

==== Scoring a closed road ====

When you complete a road leading directly to a cathedral your thief gives you '''2 points''' for each road tile the road consist of. <ref>
{{IconWorld}} 
'''Question''': If a road starts at one German Cathedral and ends at a different German Cathedral is the scoring of the road still 2 points per road tile? '''Answer''': Yes, still 2 points per road tile. German Cathedrals do not stack. (3/2016)
</ref> <ref name="german-cathedral-scoring">
{{IconWorld}} 
The following table summarizes the various scoring cases. Take into account that road segments on a German Cathedral are counted separately and get the same points as any road tile:

{| class="wikitable"
! Feature !! Completed normal road !! Completed road with Inn(s) !! Uncompleted normal road !! Uncompleted road with Inn(s)
|- 
| colspan="5" align="center" bgcolor="cccccc" | '''Scoring during the game'''
|- align="center"
| Road leading to G. Cathedral|| 2 points / tile || 3 points / tile || &ndash; || &ndash;
|- align="center"
| Archbishop on G. Cathedral <br />(each road evaluated separately) || 1 point / tile || 2 points / tile || &ndash; || &ndash;
|-
| colspan="5" align="center" bgcolor="cccccc" | '''Scoring after the game'''
|- align="center"
| Road leading to G. Cathedral || &ndash; || &ndash; || 1 point / tile || 0 points / tile
|- align="center"
| Archbishop on G. Cathedral <br />(each road evaluated separately) || 1 point / tile || 2 points / tile || 1 point / tile || 0 points / tile
|-
|}

You can find here some advanced scoring examples involving German cathedrals as provided by Kettlefish (a German proofreader of the original expansion):
* Completed German cathedrals: [https://www.carcassonnecentral.com/community/index.php?topic=2580.msg37695#msg37695 https://www.carcassonnecentral.com/community/index.php?topic=2580.msg37695#msg37695]
* Uncompleted German cathedrals: [https://www.carcassonnecentral.com/community/index.php?topic=2580.msg37723#msg37723 https://www.carcassonnecentral.com/community/index.php?topic=2580.msg37723#msg37723]
</ref> <ref>
{{IconWorld}}
Any other bonus points applied to road scoring such as the Wainwrights quarter bonus (see '''{{MarketsLeipzigLink|logo=noborder}}''') or the Mage (see '''{{MageWitchLink|edition=C1|logo=noborder}}''') still consider the number of road tiles as usual including the German Cathedral tiles. Therefore road segments on German Cathedrals are not considered separately.
<br />
[[File:german_Cathedrals_C1_example_c.png|250px|none|thumb|'''Example - Scoring a complete road with the Mage:''' {{ColorRed|RED}} completed a 4-tile road looping back to a German Cathedral. The Mage is on the road too. {{ColorRed|RED}} will score a total of '''14 points''':
<ul>
<li>(3 road tiles segments + 2 road segments on German Cathedral tile) x 2 points = 5 x 2 points = 10 points</li>
<li>4 tiles x 1 point for the Mage = 4 points</li>
</ul>
]]
</ref>

'''Special rule when scoring a road'''

Unlike the rules of the base game, for a road starting and ending on the '''same''' Land tile showing a cathedral, you count and score each road segment separately.

[[File:german_Cathedrals_C1_example_a.png|250px|none|thumb|'''Example 1 - Scoring a completed road:''' {{ColorRed|RED}} scores 10 points for the closed road. On the Land tile showing a cathedral you count both roads segments separately.]]

==== Scoring a cathedral ====

The cathedral itself can only be scored once all roads leading to it are closed. The archbishop gives you points for all these roads - '''1 point''' for each road tile. The 3 or 4 road segments on the cathedral tile are counted separately. <ref name="german-cathedral-scoring" />

'''Note:''' A road starting and ending at the cathedral, is counted as one road, which will be scored once.

[[File:german_Cathedrals_C1_example_b.png|300px|none|thumb|'''Example 2 - Scoring a completed German Cathedral:'''
{{ColorRed|RED}} gets 8 points for the finished cathedral from two closed roads - 1x worth 5 points and 1x worth 3 points. {{ColorBlue|BLUE}} gets 6 points for the closed road.]]

{{Clarification|width=600px|title=When scoring a German cathedral, each road is evaluated separately. Is this correct?|text=Yes, as seen in the scoring example above, the scoring of a German cathedral is the sum of the points granted by each road connected to it. This may not make a difference in that basic example, however it is important when one or more tiles contribute to various roads connected to the same German cathedral (those tiles are scored once per road). <ref name="german-cathedral-scoring" />}}

After scoring, you take your meeple back, as usual.

==== Final scoring ====

At the end of the game unfinished roads leading to cathedrals and unfinished cathedrals give you points. Thieves and archbishops give you one point for each road tile leading to the cathedral (road segments on German Cathedral tiles are counted separately.) <ref name="german-cathedral-scoring" /> <ref>
{{IconBook}}
This paragraph has been updated to reflect the original meaning of the [[Hans im Glück|HiG]] rules. The official clarifications provided indicated that: 
* Thieves on unfinished roads are scored as usual, that is, taking into account the majority.
* Archbishops on unfinished cathedrals get 1 point per tile from all the finished and unfinished roads leading to the cathedral.
In any case, road segments on the cathedral tile are counted separately for road starting and ending at the cathedral. (4/2016)</ref>

== Other expansions ==

'''{{InnsCathedralsLink|edition=C1|variant=long}}'''

{{IconWorld}} When using {{InnsCathedralsLink|edition=C1|logo=hide}}, for each closed road with an Inn <ref>
{{IconBook}}
Inns do no stack: If more than one Inn is present on a road, the road still scores 2 points for each road tile.
</ref> that leads to a cathedral, you get 3 instead of 2 points for each road tile, and 2 points instead of 1 for your archbishop. <ref>
{{IconBook}}
Archbishops score 2 points per road tile on a finished road with an Inn both during the game and after the game. (4/2016)
</ref> Unfinished roads at the end of the game are still worth 0 points. This applies to the thief as well as the archbishop. <ref name="german-cathedral-scoring" />


'''{{PrincessDragonLink|edition=C1|variant=long}}'''

{{IconWorld}} When using {{PrincessDragonLink|edition=C1|logo=hide}} the dragon eats the archbishop when the dragon moves onto a Land tile showing a cathedral.
