Can't right now. Will make a note to maybe fix that. Not sure that you should actually be able to. Thanks.

Also, in Legacy H&H it seems to be possible.

Might as a general rule of life be a good idea to test the veracity of your plans before executing them.

I can tell you that this doesn't mean what you think it means. "Set in sand" means that you use a solid base of some sort, be it packed dirt, concrete, clay, etc. place a layer of sand down, usually a half inch or so, then place your cobblestone or paving brick over it. After all stone is in place, you then pour sand over the top and broom and tamp the sand down in between your bricks so it all locks in place.

this is not the same as putting bricks or other paving down over sandy beaches as they have no stable base to build on. Don't allow paving over sandy areas. it's just not right. (Maybe if you add concrete in the game....)

+1 for paving on sand, I'd like to make my beach house grief=proof.
