The [[Rio_Grande_Games|'''RGG''']]  edition contradicts the sequence described in the [[Hans_im_Glück|'''HiG''']] edition and the FAQ: “If placement of the tile completes a feature, it is scored as normal. Then, the game is briefly interrupted while the Dragon moves.” So, according to the [[Rio_Grande_Games|'''RGG''']]  edition of the [[Variants#Big Box|Big Box]], dragon movement occurs after scoring; according to [[Hans_im_Glück|'''HiG''']] it occurs before scoring.
