## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this work with the classic version?**
A: Yes. No issues.

**Q: Does this zman set match the old rio grande base edition specifically, do the back of tiles look the same as the rio grande edition?**
A: They have the identical design on the back. The shade of the "C" might be slightly lighter in bright light, but not so noticeable. If you just randomize beforehand and stack or use a draw bag, it completely gets around any potential issues. Hasn't affected our games in any way and we mixed old and new tiles.

**Q: Do I need the original board game to use the expansion?**
A: Yes you do need the original board for this game.  The expansion is not enough pieces to play on its own.  I'd recommend starting with the original board game first before adding the addition play this expansion gives you.

**Q: What color are the meeples for the 6th player?**
A: the addtional colour of the meeples that comes with this expansion is pink
