General info and comments

Contents
- 12 river tiles, each with with a dark back, which replace the start tile.
Rules
Preparation
The River contains 12 river tiles, each with with a dark back, which replace the start tile. Set aside the source and lake tiles.[1] Shuffle the remaining river tiles and stack them facedown[2] Add the lake tile to the bottom of the stack, and place the source tile faceup as the starting tile.
Preparation of River II
River expansion added to Count, King and Robber includes fork tile. It should be set aside along source and lake tiles. Fork tile is to be placed first (after source tile) by the first player.
Playing the game
Placing a tileYou draw a river tile and place it in a way that its edges match the edges of tiles already in play. However, the river cannot turn in the same direction twice in a row, as this risks forcing the river to loop onto itself.[3] Players must draw and place all river tiles before they can draw normal tiles.  Forbidden placement
Placing a meepleLike any other tile, you may place a meeple on other features of a river tile you just placed.[4] Meeples cannot be placed on the river itself.
ScoringRiver feature itself cannot be scored. |

- ↑
Officially, the field goes around the source, creating a connected farm.
- ↑ You can combine The River II with The River from base game to make a very long river. Keep only one source.
- ↑ Question: With the U-turn rule when making rivers, does that mean no U-turn ever, or just no immediate U-turns because it will complicate the placement of subsequent river tiles? Answer: Only immediate U-turns are explicitly forbidden. Naturally, there can also be problems if a straight river tile lies between.
- ↑ Note that river segments separate farms. (08/2014)
