Questions here read: Catanbg-13-en-1e · Catan: Cities & Knightsbg-926-en-1e This box expands Catan, so a question here is asked on the base game and reads both books.

Asked on Catan, with this expansion included.

Questions asked here are kept, and join the public shelf once they clear a check. In a flood, questions RuleSage has to turn away are counted, not kept. RuleSage stores nothing about who asked; the web server's visit notebook, like every site's, notes each request's address for 30 days.
