Aug 20, 2018 at 14:09 comment added GendoIkari Can you be more specific? Although I saw people wording the rules in their own ways, I never found more than 3 different versions of the rules mentioned.
Aug 20, 2018 at 14:08 comment added Steve B I was looking through a Carcassonne thread on BGG. If every post is accepted as accurate, there were at least 6 combinations of farm and small city scoring.
Aug 20, 2018 at 14:08 comment added GendoIkari As far as finding a copy of the actual 2nd edition rules; I think that it was never printed in the US this way. The rule changes were made by Hans im Glück for the German printing, and Rio Grande only reluctantly adopted the newest rule later on.
Aug 20, 2018 at 14:01 comment added GendoIkari There are certainly more than 3 printings; but I've never seen anything about a 4th version of the rules. From what I can tell, second edition was very similar to current edition farm scoring; but it didn't allow for a player to receive more than 3 points from a single city.
Aug 20, 2018 at 13:52 comment added Steve B There must be more than three editions. The last time I checked a physical rule book, which was many years ago, it had the small city exception and scored farms as they are currently scored. That is, it was a combination of what people are calling the second edition and the third. It seems strange to me that no one has a copy of those 2nd edition rules.
Aug 20, 2018 at 13:18 comment added GendoIkari Works now, but it looks like that's a link to third edition rules. You can tell because a small (2-tile) city is worth 4 points instead of 2 points.
