Report history
"If a player has a palace bordering a city wall space with a wall component and any player rebuilds this wall at a later point in time so that it borders this palace, the owner of the palace also receives the cor- responding tower tile."
Since I rebuilt the wall so that it bordered that palace again, I should have received the corresponding tower tile 4.

"Everything is okay with tower tile 4. Blue put a wall on 0,8 and Red got the tower tile 4. Later Blue put a wall on 2,12 and now Blue got the tower tile 4.
Red didn't get the tower tile 4 if he put a wall on 0.7. because this palace was already connected. A palace gets a tower tile only at the first touch. "
Thanks for your interest in Medina.

"If a player has a palace bordering a city wall space with a wall component and any player rebuilds this wall at a later point in time so that it borders this palace, the owner of the palace also receives the corresponding tower tile."
Let's break this down:
1) "If a player has a palace bordering a city wall space with a wall component ... "
If a player has a palace bordering a city wall space with a wall component that player should receive the tower tile as per the rules. That player may later lose that tower tile, as it happened w/ red in this game.
2) "... and any player rebuilds this wall *** at a later point in time so that it borders this palace ***..."
This too happened in this game, when after having lost the tower tile the red player rebuilt the wall again touching his palace for a second time.
3) "the owner of the palace also receives the corresponding tower tile."
Therefore the red player, after having rebuilt the wall "so that it borders this palace " (exactly as it is written in the rule) should "also receives the corresponding tower tile".
The implementation, as it stands, is not following part 2 above because it's not awarding the owner of the palace the corresponding tower tile when the wall is rebuilt AT A LATER POINT IN TIME SO THAT IT BORDERS THIS PALACE again.
If your interpretation were correct in that a palace that was already connected can't receive the tower tile again at a later point in time, the rules wouldn't clearly state "any player rebuilds this wall >>> at a later point in time <<< so that it borders this palace the owner of the palace also receives the corresponding tower tile".
I don't know how to better explain the obvious. Do you not see that your interpretation goes against the rules? This game is already not getting much action on BGA, implementing the game wrong (against the official rules) and refusing to fix the implementation may not be a good strategy to change that.
