## Rules questions

### Does carrying treasure reduce the air each turn?

Yes — on Step 1 you move the Air Marker toward 0 by the number of Treasure Chips you are carrying (treasure retrieved in previous rounds does not count). (page 1)

### Can I turn back to the sub if I'm not carrying any treasure?

No — you may only turn back for the Submarine if you are carrying treasure, and you can change direction only once each dive. (page 1)

### What happens if I forget to declare I'm turning back and roll the dice?

If you roll the dice without declaring a direction, you must dive deeper (you cannot turn back that turn). (page 1)

### How do my dice rolls interact with the treasure I'm carrying?

You roll both dice and then subtract the number of Treasure Chips you're carrying from the total before moving; you may be unable to move, and you jump over any Undersea Chip currently being explored by another Diver. (page 1)

### If the air reaches zero on my turn, is the dive over immediately?

If the air falls to 0 or below on Step 1, your turn becomes the last turn of the dive, but you still continue and finish your turn; the dive then ends when the air runs out. (page 1)

### If I don't make it back to the sub, do I lose my treasure forever?

Players who don't make it back drop their treasure to the bottom of the sea and return to the Sub; those dropped Chips are stacked at the end of the line and act as a single Treasure Chip in subsequent dives (counted together for movement and air). (page 1)
