Subject: Grand Inquisitor & Colonies: How long does GI stay in court? rss

I have the English Decennial English edition. I noticed that the rules for the "GI and Colonies" expansion mention that if the GI is in no player's court, his black caballeros belong to no one and count as an "invisible player" when scoring. However, I've noticed that once a player has claimed the GI from the GI action card, neither the expansion rules nor the other expansion action cards allow for the GI to ever belong to "nobody"--the GI will always belong to another player.

It gets more complicated. In the Grandissimo expansion rules here, the same Inquisitor rules are listed, then later it is explicitly stated that the GI will leave a player's court just before general scoring. So of course this solves the problem I described above. Additionally, the action card in this expansion that gives you the GI explicitly mentions that the GI will leave its controlling player before the next general scoring.

However, the "GI and Colonies" says nothing about the GI leaving you.

So I'm wondering whether there has been a ruling on this, or whether you players think that in order to balance the power of the GI in the expansion "GI and Colonies", he needs to leave his owner right before general scoring, just like in the "Grandissmo" expansion.

Thanks!
