Gameplay

Feature Robber's Son C2.png


1. Placing a tile

Tiles are placed exactly like those in the base game. If a Robber's son tile continues a road occupied by one or more highwayman, you may remove one highwayman of your choice (even your own) from the continued road and return it to its player's supply. [1]

 Official clarification from the publisher Question: Does the Robber's Son symbol affect two road segments on this tile or just the one with the symbol?

Answer:
Rs c2 (3).png
This tile has three different road segments, that is, 3 separate roads. Only the bottom road segment with the Robber's Son symbol will allow a player to remove a highwayman.

2. Placing a meeple

If you chose to remove a meeple during step 1, you may not place a meeple this turn (not even on a different segment of the tile). If you did not remove a meeple during step 1, you may place a meeple as normal. [2]

Example: You place a Robber's Son tile and remove the blue highwayman from the road. You may not place a meeple this turn.

3. Scoring a feature

Robber's son does not affect scoring.

  1. Interpretation from the Community The Robber's son symbol only affects the road segment including it.
  2. Interpretation from the Community If you chose to remove a meeple with the Robber's son tile, you may not place a meeple. If you do not remove a meeple, you may place a meeple.
