It seems to me that since the second bridge card only showed up in the Online game, you shouldn't be using it for normal games. Cool

The cards in the online game includes scenario special rules, so I guess the scenarioi question has " enter only from road hex" as a special rule. Arnheim has a similar rule.

Tacticly, it would be a great idea, if a bridge is on a road, you would get the road bonus and that way it would make a diffrence if it is on a road or not Rolling Eyes

Otherwise, it could be a good idea and also of tactical importance to only allow access to a bridge from the hexes in the direction to cross it. Idea

If a scenario has a special rule, either it shouldn't be shown on the online card, or the online card should somehow indicate that the rule is scenario-specific.

And if special rules are shown on cards for the particular scenario, then it would be good for the scenario editor be modified to allow users to do this, as well. (However, this may be a problem is foreign languages, if the user doesn't translate the scenario rules.)

Hello,

I ran into another card that was different from the hardcopy version (http://www.daysofwonder.com/en/msg/?goto=253499)

http://i48.tinypic.com/kxamf.jpg

I think those cards are not scenario-specific. Otherwise, they would need a good amount of cards adapted according to Specific Rules for almost each scenario.

My guess is that those are updated cards that at some point will be included in any of the upcoming expansions.

Cheers,

It would be nice to have some "Official" ruling on this.

I don't understand that bridge card line at all. There's one scenario, Arnhem Bridge where you have specific exit and entrance. You could change the card for that circumstance but that has nothing to do with roads.

Since we're discussing cards changing for the Online game, can someone fix the Mobile Artillery card so it reads that Artillery Bombard prevents Mobile Artillery from battling after moving?

Newbies and experienced players still make that mistake.

The card is not scenario specific.

At the Belgian open "Chabrehez" scenario there was a similar situation, The Bridge could only be entered by a road hex.

Do note that the Bridges card printed on the Cadets of Saumur and Hedgerow Hell maps have the additional clause.

Yes, absolutely true. So that enforces the idea that these cards are not specific for a scenario.
