It is illegal to place a leader such that it joins two kingdoms. When selecting a leader for placement, invalid spots that join kingdoms will be highlighted.• What is your browser?

I saw this on a previous game but didn't have the opportunity to screenshot it. This behavior seems consistent across multiple games and devices. On table 238836328 at Move 27, I can select one of my leaders for placement and have it highlight an invalid square.

It did still prevent you from placing it there, yes?
It should come back with a red message saying that a leader cannot join two kingdoms and then let you place somewhere else.
I agree that it isn't ideal to show invalid moves, but cases such as this would require a good deal of additional code tidy up.

Correct, I did get a message saying that placement was not allowed and was able to place somewhere else.

I actually managed to join 2 kingdoms with a leader. Bug report filed.

Hi, Ive played Tigris and Euphrates for a long time, and just wanted to point out that this is a commonly misunderstood situation. The relevant rule is: A kingdom is defined as having a leader in it.
In the original complaint, spot L1 does NOT unite two kingdoms, as the red tile to the left is alone, and is therefore not a kingdom. Placing a leader in L1 at that time is a legal move and should be allowed.
I hope that is helpful
