Example 1: Basic landlord win
Base 1, bid 1, no bombs or spring: S = 1 × 1 × 1 = 1. Landlord +2; each farmer −1.
Example 2: One bomb, farmers win
Base 1, bid 2, one bomb: multiplier ×2; S = 1 × 2 × 2 = 4. Landlord −8; each farmer +4.
Example 3: Two bombs and spring
Base 1, bid 3, two bombs (×4), spring (×2): multiplier ×8; S = 1 × 3 × 8 = 24. Landlord +48; each farmer −24.
Example 4: Rocket and reverse spring
Base 1, bid 2, rocket (×2), reverse spring (×2): multiplier ×4; S = 1 × 2 × 4 = 8. Farmers win: landlord −16; each farmer +8.
