## Rules questions

### Do dice represent wood — and are they spent when I use them for actions or orders?

Yes — dice are the game’s lumber resources; when you complete an order or glue dice you return the required dice/tokens to the bank, and other actions (saw, splice, glue) explicitly change or consume dice as described. Also note your lumber dice occupy your lumber pile (max six) and excess are returned at end of turn (pages 2, 6, 8, 9).

### Can I perform free actions and a bonus action on the same turn, and in what order?

Yes — you may perform any number of free actions in addition to your chosen action, and you may optionally buy a bonus action; your chosen action, free actions, and bonus action may be performed in any order (page 4).

### When I plant a tree, how does it grow and can I harvest it the same turn?

Trees grow by +2 pips at the start of each of your turns (to a maximum of 6); you may move a die from a pot to your lumber pile at any time during your turn as a free action, and any pot die that reaches 6 is moved to the lumber pile immediately (pages 7–8).

### If I take an order with the Choose Orders action, can I complete it immediately?

Yes — orders you take must be placed beside your board in the matching row and can be completed as a free action on any of your turns, including immediately if you have the required dice/tokens; completing an order returns the required dice/tokens to the bank and grants the listed rewards and row effects (pages 6, 8).

### How many dice can I keep in my lumber pile and what happens to extras at the end of my turn?

You have six lumber spaces on your board; during your turn you may temporarily hold more, but at the end of your turn you must return any extra dice to the bank (trees in pots do not count toward this limit) (pages 6, 9).

### If I buy a bonus action (pay 3 lanterns), does that move the action tile or give me the action‑wheel bonuses?

No — a purchased bonus action lets you perform an action shown on any tile but it does not move that tile and therefore does not trigger action‑wheel movement or wheel bonuses; only choosing a tile normally moves it and can produce bonuses (page 4; action wheel details page 5).
