File:Count King And Robber C2 Expansion Watermark.png Exp. 6 - Count, King & Robber

  • The length of a road with the roundabout tile (e.g. for the purposes of the Robber tile) is the total number of tiles in the road, not simply the longest distance between two ends. The road has four ends which have to be closed, but the result is that it's likely to be bigger.
