It is far more interesting to calculate RUINS card scoring the following when playing the advanced rules:
RUINS cards are valued as +1 additional TRIBE card on the route, not simply +1 additional point. This makes the RUINS card alot more enticing to add to a route.
E.g; The route is completed with 3 TRIBES cards and 1 RUINS card. This would then give you a total of 16 points for the completed route. Whereas if you give only 1 pt to the RUINS card you'd get only 10 points. As the advanced game scoring is exponentially based on the number of 'TRIBE' cards it gives you more strategic options in where to place your RUINS cards (whereas previously being only ever 1 pt it didn't really matter where you placed it)
So to sum up, letting the RUINS card score just like any other TRIBE card during an advanced rules game is altogether more logical (and fun) as only in the advanced game can a RUINS card be placed next to a WAR card. |
