The Phantom does not come with any special tiles.
Place your meeple or perform an alternate action based on whatever
tile you drew.
After placing a tile, the player may deploy the phantom to it as a second
follower (on a second feature). Just like a normal follower, the Phantom
can only be deployed to an unoccupied feature. Thus, in one turn the player
may deploy two followers to two different features of the tile he or she
just placed. When the phantom follower is returned to the player's supply,
it may be deployed again in the same way in a later turn.
Other Expansions:
The Tower: The Phantom cannot be used to place a Tower Floor, but it
can be placed on top of a stack of Tower Floors to close the tower.
The Fliers: The Phantom can be used as a Flyer after your meeple is
placed normally. It cannot be used as a second Flyer after your meeple was
also used as a Flyer.
At the end of each turn and at the end of the game, the Phantom is always
counted and scored as a normal meeple.
This is where things can get very interesting!
I made the following post on Carcassonne Central:
The Bazaar, Tower, Builder, Phantom combo!
As I combine the Bazaar, Tower, Builder, and Phantom Expansions together, things really get wild!
I'm just one of the players in the game and I bid on a Bazaar Tile that will expand the feature that I currently have my builder on. There is also a Tower base on the map with one floor that is three tiles away from another meeple that is controlling a large incomplete city. When it is my turn to place my auctioned tile, I place it on my builder's feature, I do not place a meeple so that I can place a second tower floor on the Tower base. Then I take my builder second turn where I am lucky to draw the city tile that will complete my opponent's large city. Again, I do not place a meeple so that I can place the another tower floor on the tower base which puts the large city's owner in range, so I capture the meeple leaving the city unoccupied then place my Phantom on the city tile I just placed scoring all of the point for the large city, or should I say stealing them!
There are no specific rules in CAR for the combination of these expansions, but as far as I can tell, all of what I just said does follow the rules for each individual expansion!
And this is the reply I got:
As far as I can tell, this indeed follows the rules and is simply a... Very well played double turn!
