For '''The Tunnel''' we have three sets of rules to draw on: those originally published in ''Spielbox''; a set on Hans im Glück’s website; and, based on that, an English translation on the Spielbox website. We have used those of [[Hans im Glück]] as a basis for this section, although we will point out any differences between versions as necessary.

The color of the tunnel tokens is only important for linking two tunnel openings. Indeed, the tunnel is built for everyone; for example, a thief of another color can score a road which goes through a finished tunnel. In extreme cases, a road may lead underground several times in a row <ref>

The ''Spielbox'' English rules add that a road may "[pass] behind other roads underground." We are inclined to think that this is a mistranslation of "hintereinander," or "in a row."

After scoring, the tunnel tokens remain where they are, so that at most five tunnels (or six with tunnels from other expansions) can be built.

=== Additional Clarifications ===
Take care with the tiles shown beneath. <ref>
{{IconBook}}
This clarification was confirmed by Christwart Conrad, the author of the expansion. He confirmed the RRRR tile has 3 field segments.
{{FAQ|title=We would like to verify if the road ending at the group of houses splits the field at the top or not. In other words, does this tile have 3 or 4 fields?|
text=This tile has 3 fields. (8/2021)
[[File:Tunnel_C1_Tile_4.jpg]] }}
He also provided a link to BGG discussing the fields on the four tiles.

=== Variants ===
Players may use tunnels in a cutthroat way to make a road impossible to complete and trap all the followers on it for the rest of the game: a player may lead to this situation by claiming a tunnel opening with a token and never placing the second token. This possibility has generated much debate.
In order to mitigate this situation, some variants have been suggested: <ref>
{{IconWorld}}
The first two variants were discussed on two consecutive posts available on BGG:

The remaining variants where discussed on several posts on Carcassonne Central (replies #2 and #10):

* You are only allowed to place a tunnel token on a tunnel opening if at least 1 of your followers is placed on the road connected to that tunnel. (Thanks to Player77)
* The affected player is allowed to steal the 2nd tunnel token and place it immediately during their turn, if the token's owner did not use at least one opportunity to place it. (Thanks to Christwart Conrand, creator of the expansion)
* Both tunnel tokens must be placed at the same time when road with a tunnel is occupied by a player. Moreover, tunnel tokens should not be player-specific. (Thanks to Whaleyland)
* Players cannot use a tunnel token to block an opponent's follower. (Thanks to corinthiens13)

This section contains additional information about the interactions with other Carcassonne expansions.
 
{{OtherExpansionRule|expansionlink={{BaseGameLink|text=''}}Tunnels in other expansions|rules=


Tiles from other expansions, such as [[The Princess and The Dragon (1st edition)|The Princess and the Dragon]] and [[Abbey and the Mayor (1st edition)|Abbey and the Mayor]] which also depict tunnels, can also be used with the rules for the ''Spielbox'' tunnel expansion; as such, the openings can be claimed with tokens. In this case the road leading through the tunnel does not count as continuous, contrary to the stated rules.
