1. Roll the Dice Pool
At the start of your turn, roll your active dice pool. You have up to 2 rerolls per turn to lock in the values you need.
2. Assign Dice to Carriages
Each carriage on your train has specific slot requirements:
- Locomotive (Engine): Needs ODD numbers. Powers your speed to move forward along the tracks.
- Shield Carriage: Needs EVEN numbers. Generates armor shielding to absorb incoming damage.
- Artillery Carriage: Needs HIGH (4, 5, 6) numbers. Fires at threats to reduce their HP.
- Cargo Carriage: Needs LOW (1, 2, 3) numbers. Generates gold to buy upgrades at the depot.
3. Surviving Hazards
Every sector presents obstacles or bandit attacks. If you don't destroy the active threat (reduce its HP to 0) before ending your turn, it will inflict damage on your train's integrity. If Integrity hits 0%, you crash!
4. Reaching the Terminal
Upgrade your train components, purchase extra dice, and travel all 100 kilometers to reach the grand terminal and claim ultimate victory!
