CATAN
In Traders & Barbarians, does upgrading a settlement to a city that reaches the win total win at once if a barbarian attack follows?
One reply from Catan GmbH staff says the attack is part of the build, but other posters read the rulebook win text differently.

Probably not at once. A Catan GmbH reply says the barbarian attack is part of the build, so it resolves first and the win is not declared until it is resolved. Some players read the rulebook's 'at any point during your turn' as ending the game immediately, so this is disputed.
