Bridges, Castles & BazaarsCarcassonne

When a tile completes a city of only 2 tiles that your meeple occupies, you may place a castle on it instead of scoring the 4 points. The castle scores nothing then; it scores the full points of the first feature completed in its neighbourhood: the 2 castle tiles and the 2 tiles on each side of them (6 tiles; a monastery counts only if its own tile is one of them). That feature's owners still score it too, and every castle next to it scores it. An unscored castle is worth nothing at game end. Each player has 3 castles (2 each with 5–6 players).
