7 Wonders (2nd Edition)bg-316377-en-2e Abstained — no grounded answer; closest passages below
The answerer couldn't ground a confident answer in the rulebook. The closest rulebook passages are below — check them before ruling.
Each Age ends with the Resolution of Military Conflicts. Count all military symbols on cards you have constructed and those on your Wonder board, if any, to determine your military strength . Then compare your total military strength with that of each of your neighbors. For each neighbor: If your mi
Military Conflict tokens represent your Military Victories and Defeats. There are four types of Military Conflict tokens: Military Defeat -1 tokens Military Victory +1 tokens Military Victory +3 tokens Military Victory +5 tokens
Add the value of all your Military Defeat and Victory tokens to determine your score for Military Conflicts (the total may be a negative number).
If your City does not produce the resources needed to construct a card or Wonder stage, check your neighbors' Cities. If they produce the resources you need, you can buy these resources from them. For each resource bought, give 2 Coins to the owner of the resource. This player keeps their card and c
To buy resources, you must spend the required Coins at the beginning of your turn. You cannot use Coins you receive from other players during the same turn. You cannot buy resources from a Building your neighbor constructed that same turn. You can never prevent a player from buying your resources. B

7 Wonders: Leadersbg-291204-en-1e Abstained — no grounded answer; closest passages below
7 Wonders: Leaders has nothing to add here — an expansion's rulebook only speaks where it changes the game, so silence on a base-game question is the book working, not failing.

- layering — how this ask was counted
- counted as ABSTAINED — carried by layer 1 (7 Wonders (2nd Edition)); layer 2 ABSTAINED; 0 not read; rung: ANSWERED ▸ ABSTAINED ▸ UNATTRIBUTABLE ▸ REFUSED
- layering — books not run
- layer valve: rulesage.table.max-layers = 8 (today's setting, not necessarily the one this ask ran under). A book the valve trims is not read and leaves NO row of its own, so it cannot be listed above or counted in the census — an empty list here means the corpus breaker marked nobody, not that nothing was left out.

retrieval — what the search arm returned
score = the fused retrieval score (reciprocal-rank fusion over the search arms) — NOT a cosine similarity. How many arms fused this ruling was NOT RECORDED (it predates the boost trail, ran on the path that stored none, or stored one that could not be read), and the ceiling depends on that count (ceiling = arms/(k+1) at k=60): 2 arms top out at 0.03279; 3 arms top out at 0.04918. So a score above 0.03279 here is not an anomaly: it is arithmetic proof a boost arm voted, and the measured band 0.016–0.033 (taken on two-arm asks) is what does not apply. A chunk only one arm ranked highly lands near 0.016 (that one arm's #1 vote), so 0.03 here is an excellent hit, not a 3% match.
per-arm ranks (the rank each search arm gave a chunk): NOT DISCLOSED by the gateway. Fusion happens gateway-side and only the FUSED score crosses the wire, so rulesage cannot show them without a gateway change. The rank column below is the FUSED rank (position in the returned list), which is real.
token count per chunk: NOT DISCLOSED — chunk token counts are not reported on the ask path. The character counts below are of the bounded snippet/quote rulesage actually received — a real measurement of what we hold, never an estimate of the chunk.
no payload was recorded for this ruling (the call never returned one)

- stream path
- not requested — no progress token attached (stream-answers off, or a non-streaming caller)
- watchdog
- first-token watchdog: 30s per arming window (rulesage.table.first-token-watchdog-seconds), re-armed once by the passages frame — so the worst case before a reader falls back to polling is 60s. Whether it actually fired is a BROWSER-side decision that never reaches the server, so it is not recorded here. The stream path above is the server's half of that story: whether a delta was emitted at all.
- num_ctx · think posture
- both are the CHILD's settings, not rulesage's, and no ask reply carries them — an answer never states which context window or think posture produced it. The live-seat line above reads them from the running child instead, where the gateway can answer for itself; it describes the child NOW, not this ask.

errata registry — what the gate above had to match against
this game registers NO errata cards (edition 12), so "no registered errata card matched" above could never have matched one
Errata scope: each book this ask READ got its own errata gate, keyed on that book's own edition — so an expansion's registered cards were matched against that expansion's own layer rather than left outside the match. The per-layer table above shows what each one sent, and any book that was not read ran no gate at all.
