Hi Tom !

I just read your FAQ and I found there some explanations about animal tiles,
and I think I have understood the way to use them.
What I didn't found is the use of my special 4 tile cards with the chinese
character, and the real name of the four tiles I found in my tile game.

Do you want that I send you scans ?

Cheers,

Gilbert
