Rules questions

Answered from the rulebook by Ludoya's rules assistant.

Do I randomly choose the Special Action, Correspondence, and Beagle Goal tiles when using a Scenario card?

No. Use the specific components indicated by the Scenario card’s reference numbers instead of choosing them randomly. Place Correspondence tiles in the shown left-to-right order, moving top to bottom on the board (page 1).

Can I use these Scenario cards with the Firelands expansion?

No. The Scenario cards in this expansion are not compatible with Firelands (page 1).

When do I add the new tiles and Crew cards to the game?

Shuffle the new Beagle Goal tiles, Special Action tiles, Objective tiles, and Crew cards with their matching base-game components before setup. These components are compatible with all other expansions (page 2).

Does Crew card B1 let me use a Tent again, and do I get anything extra?

Yes. Choose one of your previously placed Tents and perform its associated actions as if you had just placed it; you also gain 1 Temporary Knowledge token (page 1).

Does Beagle Goal B2 count Wax Seals I gained during setup?

Yes. It scores 2 victory points for each Wax Seal on your personal board, including Seals gained during setup (page 2).

For the new Objective tile requiring a silver distinction, how many Wax Seals does my worker need?

At least one worker must have 4 or more Wax Seals to earn the silver distinction (page 2).
