## Rules questions

### Do Legendary cards count toward my hand limit?

No. Your Legendary Critter and Construction are kept secret and do not count against your hand limit; they are not considered part of your hand (p. 3).

### How do I play a Legendary card, and can I still play its red-banner card afterward?

Pay its resource cost, or discard the card named in its red banner from your city to play it for free. After using that free upgrade, you may not play another copy of the named card into your city (p. 3).

### When I upgrade a Construction to a Legendary, what happens to a worker or occupied token on it?

Move the worker or occupied token onto the Legendary card, but do not activate it at that time. The Ever Tree cannot give you a Legendary Critter for free (p. 3).

### Do Legendary cards take up a city space, and can I later discard one?

Yes, they take up a city slot, though each Legendary also opens an additional slot in your city. Legendary cards cannot be discarded from your city for any reason (p. 3).

### Do we have to use the Extra! Extra! and Rugwort cards?

No. Extra! Extra! cards can be added by shuffling them into the main deck during setup, and the three Rugwort cards may also be shuffled into the deck; both are optional additions (pp. 2, 4).
