Could I claim a tunnel if there are no cards matching the color of the cards played to claim the Tunnel?
I want to claim a red tunnel of 4 cards. I have 4 red cards. Three top cards from the Train draw pile are turned face-up and there are no red cards or train cards there.
The rules state:
When attempting to claim a Tunnel route, a player first lays down the number of cards required by the length of the route. Then the three top cards from the Train draw pile are turned face-up. For each card revealed whose color matches the color of the cards played to claim the Tunnel, an additional card of the same color (or a Locomotive) must now be played from his hand. Only then can the player successfully claim the Tunnel route.
