I am sorry if these questions have been asked before, but I can't see a posting if they have.
P67 Placing terrain.
'A player cannot choose more than two identical terrain elements.'
If 'Plain' has been chosen for the game, can a defender have three fields, one compulsory and two they choose?
Placing a river or coastal zone.
'If the defender has not successfully selected a river or coastal zone, the attacker can try to select one or the other.'
This implies that an attacker can only attempt to select a river or coastal zone if the defender has tried and failed. Is this what was intended?
Thanks in anticipation

1) No, only 2 including the compulsory
2) Yes and if both attemps fail, both can choose another terrain element. Only a river OR a coast may be placed not both.
3) Yes as the defender choose first.
Ex:in plain, the defender select a field and try to choose a coast and fail, he cannot try to choose a river but try to choose a village and fail again,he may still choose 2 to 4 elements. Tha attacker may try to choose a coast. _________________ "Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead"

But if the defender does not choose a coast or a river, can the attacker still choose either?

If the Defender chooses coast (or river) and gets it the attacker cannot choose either piece.
If the Defender chooses river or coast and fails to get the piece (or does not attempt to get either piece), the attacker can attempt to get one of these two pieces. |

The attacker can pick water feature regardless of defenders failure to get it Or failure to pick it in the first place.
Implication is that defenders failure does not mean total failure for both players. _________________ Player 747 don't call me Jumbo |

Thanks very much for the replies.
I asked for someone who doesn't want to come on these forums.
