Here's a link to a table, does this work? https://boardgamearena.com/table?table=480634832

That works! Thanks for taking the time to make the replay!

Hmm... An expert in the game can probably confirm if what I'm looking at is correct, but it seems at this point is where it shows that it's indeed a bug.

At this point I think I know what all the cards are by heart. :lol:

That's a good spot. Do we have a bug report forum?
Balance-wise I don't think it changes too much too often but that definitely does not agree with the card as written.

Haha! Perfect that we got your knowledge to solve and confirm this. :lol:

The bug report forum for Hadrian's Wall is here:
https://boardgamearena.com/bugs?sort=la ... &game=1820

Its currently sorted by last commented on/update, and the top three reports are about the bug. On the first one out of the three that were posted, the dev marked as fixed, but seems the bug still persists.

Can also try asking Mistergos, the dev, directly about it. While I do agree that its a minor bug and shouldn't matter as much, would definetly be nice for it to work as intented as it could cause confusion for newer players.

Honestly I think it's a bigger deal than you two think -- as written, it depends on stone, and in the implementation, it instead depends on blue and black workers. That is huge, completely changing the relationship of resources to each other. I hope this gets fixed soon. I know with coding things tend to be more complicated than I think, but surely this is just basically one bit of code pointing at the wrong other bit of code, maybe even just a one word change?

I meant something more along the lines where optimal play typically has both fort and wall completely filled since they are so efficient. And if you don't fill fort you can't fill out wall so I typically don't see many games where fort is filled without wall also filled.
