## Rules questions

### Can I place a Building tile anywhere on my map or does it have to touch a road or other buildings?

A Building Tile must always be placed on a land space and be adjacent to a Road Tile or to a Building Tile of the same type (color); rotation is allowed but adjacency rules must be respected (page 4).

### Can a Long Road go over water, or does it have to stay entirely on land?

A Long Road Tile can be placed over water but it must start and end on land; in this case flip it to the Bridge side and it is still treated as a Road Tile for adjacency purposes (page 4).

### When do I increase my city's production and population—when I buy a Building/Monument or later?

When you purchase a Building or Monument you immediately advance the Resource markers shown on the tile/card, and whenever a Resource marker lands on or passes a Population symbol you immediately move your Population marker (page 4).

### If I buy a Monument do I have to spend all my remaining Gold and does that end my round?

Yes — to buy a Monument you must fulfill its placement requirements and spend all your remaining Gold, and buying a Monument ends your round (pages 3 and 5).

### How do Loans work — how much gold do they give, how do you repay them, and is there a penalty?

Taking a Loan is a free action that gives +2 Gold for the round (raising your round cap to 9); repaying a loan later is a free action that costs 3 Gold, you may have only one loan at a time, and any unpaid loan at game end costs −2 Victory Points (page 4).

### What exactly counts as a City District when scoring at the end of the game?

A City District is any Building Tile that is surrounded on all sides by features other than green spaces — each side must be adjacent to Building Tiles, Road Tiles, Monuments, Towers, Natural Resource spaces, Water spaces, the Sidewalk, or the map edge (page 5).
