27 Aug 2020 23:51 • Joseph2302 • Defectul nu a fost replicat încă de programatori:

Company owner should be given option on whether or not to use this tile
And it shouldn't work for the whole decade, as that is too powerful

28 Aug 2020 22:43 • mitcharf • Defectul nu a fost replicat încă de programatori:

I agree that it is a powerful capital asset, but it is not intended to work just once per decade. The designer clarified this on BGG here:
boardgamegeek.com/thread/2256464/article/32703243#32703243

In terms of it being optional rather than mandatory, I'm trying to think of a case where I would NOT want to have my stock price protected from dropping. If there are legitimate cases where that would be of possible benefit, then it's worth pursuing that with the game designer, to see what he thinks. Otherwise it seems like it would needlessly delay the game if a player had to be prompted every time to see if they wanted to use it (especially since it can be used multiple times per decade)

29 Aug 2020 00:57 • arcadized • Defectul nu a fost replicat încă de programatori:

A player in that game asked the designer and the designer agrees this is bugged here:

@mitcharf

Did you even read the link you posted? When I go there I see the designer has edited it to reflect the current version of the rules:

boardgamegeek.com/thread/2256464/article/32703243#32703243

also see the thread I posted:

www.boardgamegeek.com/thread/2493015/capital-asset-price-protection

IF you tool tip over the asset in BGA, you can see BGA is using the current version of the rules. this is a bug and the designer agrees

29 Aug 2020 05:00 • mitcharf • Defectul nu a fost replicat încă de programatori:

I've been participating in both of those threads. When I posted my comment here in the bug, it was before the designer had stayed that this was a change for the second edition. I was just coming here now to mention that I was mistaken in my previous comment, but I see you've beaten me to it.

Hopefully you also saw that I asked the designer about whether you can choose when to use this asset, and he replied that you do get to choose.

29 Aug 2020 16:52 • arcadized • Defectul nu a fost replicat încă de programatori:

Ah, I see now. Sorry, looks like it was a timing issue. Didn't realize that was your thread, I don't use BGG very much. Thanks for coming back to correct the information here.

29 Aug 2020 17:18 • mitcharf • Defectul nu a fost replicat încă de programatori:

No problem. We all want the same thing here -- for the BGA version to implement the rules correctly. :)

30 Aug 2020 03:49 • ggohierroy • Defectul nu a fost replicat încă de programatori:

Hey, so this adaptation was implemented when the 2nd edition rules were still being worked on, and the latest information I had at that time was that Price Protection was a passive ability that could be used multiple times in the same decade.

Now, I understand this has changed with the 2nd edition, but it wouldn't be easy to change with the implementation because it means multiple actions can be interrupted and switch to the player holding price protection because they now have a decision to make. This changes the flow of the game significantly, and in asynchronous games, this also has a big impact.

Just so you know, I have no intention of changing this in the short term because of those reasons. I'll leave it open for visibility.

I think it would be reasonable to trigger the Asset automatically the first time it could be used. I can see where there would be edge cases where you wouldn't want it used, but I think the loss from automatically applying it would be less of a problem than letting it work all the time.

@alexsim

Good idea, but knowing this, a player would use this knowledge to their advantage, making this capital asset go from amazing, to complete shit.

Bug appeared in real time game. Price protection not exhausting during stock phase

Neramoor, the company that lost 3 steps is not the same as the company with the asset.

18 Jan 2021 13:48 • attagamer • Defectul nu a fost replicat încă de programatori:

The designer of the game has published a rewording of the capital asset effect on BGG:
boardgamegeek.com/thread/2256464/article/35690787#35690787

I believe the BGA implementation is in accordance with this new/clarified rule.

19 Jan 2021 08:53 • attagamer • Defectul nu a fost replicat încă de programatori:

Ooops, sorry! I meant that the BGA implementation is in accordance with the v1 rules.

Note the inconsistence between the behaviour (v1) and the tip text when hovering over the capital asset: the latter reflects the v2 rules!

The v2 rules have changed the ability of the capital asset, and the BGA implementation has thus become wrong.

Clarification by Mr Chandler (author) here: boardgamegeek.com/thread/2256464/article/35690787#35690787

He says: "In the Second Edition, this rule has changed to be a "ONCE PER DECADE" ability. It is no longer a passive ability."

Do not forget to grey out the capital asset once used.

Thank you for your time!

18 Apr 2021 20:28 • MrGeorge • Defectul nu a fost replicat încă de programatori:

So, to clarify, how do we use this asset to prevent the stock price from dropping during the stock phase?

22 Apr 2021 03:10 • JohnOrigan • Defectul nu a fost replicat încă de programatori:

Price protection is currently always enable (passive ability).

To follow the rules, it should protect only once (not implemented)
