## Rules questions

### Can I draw more than two Ferry Cards?

No. You may not have more than 2 Ferry Cards in your hand, so if you already have 2, you cannot choose the “Draw 1 Ferry Card” action (p. 2).

### How do Ferry Cards and Locomotives pay for wave spaces on Ferry Routes?

One Ferry Card can cover up to 2 spaces with a Wave Symbol, while each Locomotive covers only 1 such space. Ferry Cards cannot be used on regular Routes or on Ferry Route spaces without a Wave Symbol (p. 2).

### Can I claim both tracks of a Double or Triple Route?

In a 4- or 5-player game, all tracks are available, but one player cannot claim more than one track of the same Double or Triple Route. In a 2- or 3-player game, claiming one track locks the other parallel tracks (p. 2).

### How many Destination Tickets do I keep at the start of the game?

Each player is dealt 5 Destination Tickets and must keep at least 3; discarded Tickets are shuffled and placed under the deck (p. 2).

### When I draw Destination Tickets during the game, how many must I keep?

Draw 4 Destination Tickets and keep at least 1 of them. You may keep 2, 3, or all 4, and return any others to the bottom of the deck (p. 3).

### How does the Regions bonus work, and do separate networks count together?

At the end of the game, count the Regions connected in each network and score that network using the Regions chart; separate networks are scored separately. Sardegna, Sicilia, and Puglia each count as 2 Regions if all their cities belong to the same network, and there is no Globetrotter or Longest Route bonus (p. 3).
