Endeavor: Age of Sail

When a region opens and its Governor card is awarded, any Keys on that Governor are placed on the matching crests of Exploits; when an Exploit has Keys on both of its crests it is activated and each player with presence in both regions places a Shield on that Exploit to show they may interact with and score from it (page 3).

If you use an action (from a building or an Action token) to activate an Exploit ability, you do not perform the normal action; instead you perform the ability printed on the Exploit tile (page 4).

No — to spend a Trade token you must actually have the physical Trade token on your player mat, then discard it and adjust the related track; other tokens or discs do not count (page 4).

If you run out of discs in your supply you may not gain any additional discs from the Exploit (page 4).

If you lose all presence in one of an Exploit’s regions you lose access to that Exploit and must remove your Shield; only players with a Shield on the Exploit are eligible to interact with it or participate in its endgame scoring (pages 3–4).

Exploits are scored first during final scoring, before any other scoring, and you should record each Exploit in the top three rows of the score pad; only players with a Shield on the Exploit may be involved in its scoring (page 4).
