This expansion was originally released for the [[The_Robbers (1st edition)|first edition]], known as C1 for short, in {{Year|2012}}.

{{IconBook}}

If playing with [[The Messages|The Messages]] expansion, the robber can be placed beside either a scoring meeple or the messenger. Thus, the robber can get points from either scoring figure, but only from the one on the same space as the robber. (5/2013)  

</ref> Then, the next player to the left with no robber on the scoreboard is allowed to place it. <ref>

{{IconArrow}}

</ref> If your robber is already on the scoreboard, you may choose to move it to a different space.

[[File:Robbers_C2_Example_03.png|frame|none|'''Example 3:''' {{ColorBlue|Blue}} receives '''4 points''', and {{ColorRed|you}} and {{ColorGreen|green}} each steal '''2 points'''. Both robbers are returned to their player's supply.]]

=== Detailed examples using the robber and the messages === <!--T:33-->

<!--T:35-->

# First, {{ColorRed|your scoring meeple}} scores 3 points for the road. After that, {{ColorRed|your scoring meeple}} scores 6 points for the city. Here, the {{ColorBlue|blue robber}} robs '''nothing''' from {{ColorRed|you}} because {{ColorRed|your scoring meeple}} was not on the same space as the {{ColorBlue|blue robber}}.

<!--T:41-->

# The {{ColorGreen|green}} player and {{ColorRed|you}} both decide to score with your scoring figures that are standing on different spaces from the {{ColorBlue|blue robber}}. The {{ColorBlue|blue robber}} can't rob any points from the {{ColorGreen|green messenger}} or {{ColorRed|your scoring meeple}}, as the {{ColorBlue|blue robber}} isn’t on the same space as either one of them.

<!--T:47-->

# {{ColorRed|You}} decide to first score the road worth 2 points with {{ColorRed|your messenger}}, which does not stand on the same space as the {{ColorBlue|blue robber}}. Then {{ColorRed|you}} also score the city worth 8 points with {{ColorRed|your messenger}}. The {{ColorGreen|green}} player first scores the city worth 6 points with the {{ColorGreen|green scoring meeple}}. The {{ColorBlue|blue robber}} can only rob half the points from the {{ColorGreen|green scoring meeple}} (3 points) because {{ColorRed|your messenger}} is not standing on the same space as the {{ColorBlue|blue robber}}.
