Bonuses for extra actions are not triggering

Post by tiford »

I have tried playing cards that have a bonus to take another action (e.g. Douglas Fir, Badger). But I am not given the option to take the 2nd action. Why is that?

When you play the appropriate cards (ie the matching colour required to trigger the bonus) are you seeing the bonus turn from a red cross to a green tick?

I did made the same experience. Some cards have the bonus to take an additional turn (there are no special requirements as far as I can see it), but the game jumps to the next player.

Me again. Played a deer, which would give me 2 cards as a bonus, received none. I guess the game needs a fix.

Edit: I might got it. Boni just work, if the tree card showas the same colour...? One should read the rules, I guess...

I know of two circumstances for the bonuses not triggering:

1) The cards discarded or the card with the bonus have different symbols. Bonuses only trigger of the cards discarded have the same symbol as the card played.

2) The card with the bonus itself was played as part of a bonus action. In that case the bonus is not activated.

If you obeserved the behavior under different circumstances, it may be worth filing a bug: https://boardgamearena.com/bugs?game=1841
