Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
I can use two equal cards as a joker, but I cannot use them to place 2 cloisters/advisors at once. Is this a bug?
You can set 2 cloisters/advisors at once: First play one card, then place the first cloister/advisor. After that you can play the second card and place the second cloister/advicor. At least you draw two cards. Note: You are not allowed to place two pawns, if you choose a land with no cloisters.

After drawing a face-up card, shouldn't the drawn card be replaced with another one from the deck, before the player chooses their next card to draw?
The german rules (I only own the german board game edition) are clear: After the player has filled up his hand cards, the face-up cards are filled up from the desk.

The board is not displayed correctly within my browser. What kind of browser do I need?
You do not need a special browser, any browser that supports images and tables should do, e.g. Netscape 4, Internet Explorer 4, Opera 4 and many others. The board is not displayed correctly, if your browser uses a hugh font size. So please check the font settings of your browser and choose a smaller font size, that should help.

The images on every page are loaded from the internet. How can I reduce the time to load?
The images have to be loaded at game start, but then the images should not be re-loaded from the net. Please check your browser settings and activate the file cache/temporary internet files in your browser, so that the images are not loaded everytime.

Why are you still use german spelling for the names of the lands and cards?
As the graphics are shared between the german and the english implementation of the game, I decided to use the spelling that corresponds to the texts on the graphics (Andrew made this suggestion and I think, he's right)
