Had China boardgame since like 2006.  Didn’t realize you could play China online though since June 2009 and it uses the mabiweb.com backend.  Play 3, 4, or 5 player games turn based games (not realtime). On your turn you have 3 cards to play (replenish back to 3 when turn is over) which determine which region you can place a house and/or emissary in dragon circle).  Three methods of scoring are Regions (houses), Alliances (emissaries), Roads (four or more houses connected on roads). Two or more cards of the same color you can use as a wild card.  Can only place in a single region during your turn.  Only one house if nothing currently exists in that region. Emissaries can be placed but are limited to how many depending on the current 1st place majority of houses.  For instance, check out Wei it has 3 emissaries (1 red & 2 blue) since blue has a house majority of 3. Game ends after deck is exhausted for the second time.

Region Scoring – I’m purple I got 19 points for Regions (majority scoring). Shu region I get 2 points since I’m tied for 2nd place with green and red and score how many houses 1st place has which is two yellow houses.  In Chu I’m tied with yellow for first place so we both score entire region which is 8 points. In Lu I’m in 2nd place so score 2 pointssince 1st place has two green houses.  In Wei I’m tied for 3rd place with red so we both get 2 points since yellow in 2nd place has two houses. In Zhao I’m tied for 1st with blue so I get 5 points.

Alliance Scoring – got 20 points. You go and look at 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, etc. in order when scoring in real life. Must have majority or at least tied for majority in both regions of the alliance.  Purple for Alliance #5 I have 1 in Shu and tied for majority in Chu so I score that alliance which is 1 + 3 = 4 pointsAlliance #6 I score 5 points (2 in Lu and 3 in Chu). Alliance #12 I score 6 points (3 in Han and 3 in Chu).  Alliance #13 I score 5 points (3 in Han and 2 in Lu).

Roads – only one who scores with roads is green 5 points as he is only one who has a houses on roads with four or more.
