Rules: a rule of the game has not been followed
Detailed description
• Which part of the rules was not followed by the BGA adaptation?

If yes, at which move number?
In the replay it's Move 3: "3ntn moves a piece from outside the board to C1".• Which browser are you using?

There are so many versions of the rules. That is a variant in the copy of the rules I got from BGG. So when you start the game you can chose to place or not in the middle external square.
As you can chose to remove only 1 animal from the board or as many as you want.

Well, my fault the rules I have from BGG says it's a variant, while the rules from the publisher says it's the default behavior, so I leave it as a variant but set as default the rules of the publisher.
Thank you

If it helps, previously the game was implemented on BGA as I describe, as being able to play in the central column in the first move is a big advantage.

As I said my fault, the rules I had show it as a variant, while publisher rules say that the right thing.
Now it's still a possible variant but the default is like publisher rules says, player cannot place there in the first 2 turns. If necessary I can remove the option.
