DESIGNER CLARIFICATIONS2
A20 Crane and C22 Architectural Statics card interactionpublisher
- CONTEXT
- Players were uncertain whether A20 Crane's "stored material" discount requires all materials to already be in storage, and whether Crane and Architectural Statics can combine. Note: in the English rules, "raw material" = a resource on the continent (German: *Rohstoff*); "stored material" = a resource in your storage (German: *Gut*).
- RULING
- "A20 Crane: The costs for settlements are reduced by 1 stored material. Example: Instead of paying 1 wood and 1 Stone, you pay 1 wood only. C22 Architectural Statics: After paying for a settlement, return 1 of the stored materials you spent to your storage. Example: You pay 1 wood and 1 stone for your settlement, then you return 1 stone to your storage. This means that the effects of these two cards can actually work together."
Calendar card gives 2 actions on last turn, not 3designer
- CONTEXT
- Players asked whether Calendar grants a third additional action on top of the normal activate-or-reset choice on the last turn of each era.
- RULING
- "It shouldn't say instead because your turn is either activate a module or reset. Calendar just allows you to do both." Calendar gives you exactly 2 actions on your last turn of each era (activate a module AND reset, in any order) — not a third action beyond those two.
Q&A2
Migration within the same territory is not possibledesigner
- QUESTION
- Can a tribe migrate from the wilderness back to an encampment within the same territory in a single migration action?
- ANSWER
- No. A single migration cannot move a tribe to the same territory it started in. Rulebook p.15 states this explicitly.
Success Points when procreating into a Fire Encampmentdesigner
- QUESTION
- Do you score Success Points when using Procreation to place a tribe directly into a Fire Encampment?
- ANSWER
- Yes. Procreation follows the same rules as Migration for this purpose; the rulebook (p.16) confirms that Success Points are awarded when a tribe is successfully placed into a Fire Encampment via Procreation.
EDGE CASES2
Official tutorial video wrong about Stage 4/5 flip orderdesigner
- SITUATION
- The official BGG tutorial video (produced by Paul Grogan, checked by the publisher) stated that Stage 4 must be flipped to active before Stage 5 can be flipped.
- RULING
- "It is an error." There is no rule requiring Stage 4 to be completed before Stage 5. Stage tiles can be flipped in any order.
AUTHOR: PaulGrogan (Paul Grogan, designer)SOURCE: boardgamegeek.com(17 replies, 5 thumbs)DATE: 2024-11-26Two-step migration can return a tribe to its starting territorydesigner
- SITUATION
- When the migration module is upgraded to 2 steps, a player moves their tribe out of its starting territory in the first step and then back in the second step, ending in the territory it began.
- RULING
- This is permitted. The rule that migration within the same territory is not possible (Q1) applies to a single step only; a two-step migration that genuinely visits another territory before returning is allowed.

HOW MIRA KNOWS
Not an AI guessing rules. A curated archive.
Every answer Mira gives is grounded in an official rulebook — not in what a language model thinks the rules probably say. Our team reads, structures, and curates each game's rulebook before Mira can answer a single question about it.
An opponent's settlement blocks your road network — your road cannot be built through or past an occupied intersection.
◆ Catan — Roads & Building, p. 7
At the end of each round, the player with the most of the goal trait scores points equal to their amount; the player with the second most scores fewer.
◆ Wingspan — End of Round, p. 11
Null cards deal 0 damage regardless of base value or any bonuses applied.
