| Feb 6, 2018 at 20:32 | comment | added | Xirema | @ArcanistLupus Commodities are kept in the same hand as Resources, and have the same cardback. So unless players rigorously count cards, they can only speculate based on how large a player's hand is how many Commodities they have. | |
| Feb 6, 2018 at 20:30 | comment | added | Arcanist Lupus | I'm unfamiliar with this expansion - is the number of commodity cards a player has public information? If it is, that makes the answer easy. | |
| Nov 28, 2017 at 11:17 | comment | added | xorsyst | If it was clear that player A had definitely played the card, D should have pointed out the correct way to play the card (as per the answer). However, it's possible D thought A was just asking for information, and would rescind the play if everyone said they didn't have a commodity, and didn't want to give away information about what was in their hand. | |

| Nov 24, 2017 at 2:47 | comment | added | Keith Nicholas | seems legit to me, Player A didn't play the card correctly. If this was a "friendly" game, D should of said, "That's not how you play that, you need to make an offer" | |

| Nov 23, 2017 at 20:02 | comment | added | Xirema | @Malco That's what all "Rules Lawyering" is though: justifying why what you specifically did wasn't against the rules. =D | |
| Nov 23, 2017 at 19:42 | comment | added | Malco | I wouldn't really consider Player D "rules lawyering", more cheating and then trying to justify themselves after the fact. This is compounded by the fact you say Player A is a new and less confident player. | |
