Gain the top card of a location that you did notdeploy to this turn, then gain that location’s bonus.b. Gain the top card of the deck, then roll the Risingdie and gain the resulting bonus.Play continues clockwise until all players have had the same number of turns (and Apollo had their bonus turn)after the game end is triggered (see Game End and Scoring on page 6).Notes Unless otherwise specified, the bonuses gained fromLeading and Scouting are only triggered when takingthose actions. Do not gain a location’s bonus if yougain a card through other means (e.g., if a charactercard says, “Gain the top card from Luna”). The deploy ability of some cards may instruct you todeploy another card. As usual, deploy that card faceup on any location and trigger its deploy ability (ifany). This concludes the deployment. You may stillperform the final step of the LEAD action only once. The deploy abilities of some cards instruct you to“end your turn.” This indicates that you may notproceed to gain the top card of a location or the deckand the corresponding bonus. If it’s not possible for you to use the deploy ability of acard, you may still deploy it and ignore the ability. The deploy abilities of some cards may move the cardyou’ve deployed to a different location. You are stillconsidered to have deployed to the original location. Some deploy abilities mention “another location,”referring to any other location than the one on whichthe card was deployed. If a card instructs you to move or place a card, it doesnot count as a deploy action.Edge CasesThese situations are highly unlikely, but just in case youstumble upon them, here’s what to do: eck runs out: If there are no cards in theDdeck, the deck simply ceases to be an option forplayers to draw from or interact with.Zero cards in hand: If you have no cards inyour hand, you can still either Lead or Scout on yourturn. If you Lead, skip the deploy portion of the Leadaction (as you have no card in hand to deploy). 0 is an even number (for cards that consider odd/even point values). Deploy actions that result in a trade of resourcesmay only be taken once per turn (e.g., Sponsor, StockBroker).3RR Rulebook r17.indd 32/21/21 9:08 PM
