Sheep & Shepherds

[CKorfmann]

Version 1.0 ready to go.  Sorry, I forgot I hadn't finished it.

Hmm... Can the shepherd be placed on a farm with the barn or a farmer?

[CKorfmann]

Yes it can.  That's a rule I've changed from the original.  I talked to Kevin about it.  Barns weren't around when he made it and since the shepherds and farmers have no effect on each other, I felt that it shouldn't matter.

The rules doesn't say that.

[CKorfmann]

Well, I think it's implied when it says that it can only be placed in a field with no other shepherd.  If you would prefer it, I can put it in there, but I don't really think it's necessary.

[Novelty]

There are lots of things implied in the rules which leaves them open for interpretation.  It's usually best to have them in, if not in the rules proper, then as a footnote.  It would be nice if the rules are clear about it as well.

[The Missionary]

Yes, you should probably make it clear in the rules, so people know you can do it. Otherwise, I think its most enjoyable aspect, the fact opponents are more likely to help connect fields instead of subverting your farmers, is lost.

The corrections have been made and the file was made a PDF.  You can get it HERE.

And that's the fourth of Kevin Graham's expansions on the Public Downloads.  Well done Korf!

[CKorfmann]

If anyone is interested in making this expansion, you can get a set of six one-arm-up meeples and all the sheep you need at THIS site.  The prices are fairly reasonable.  Thanks to Scott for the link from another thread.
