TURN SUMMARY

You will take the first turn and then alternate turns with The Machine, taking your turns as normal.

The Machine’s Gear Wheel token will either occupy a space by itself or a space that contains a Basin pawn. In either case, the space and the pawn in that space are not available to you. You cannot end your movement on a space that the Machine’s Gear Wheel token occupies, and you cannot move a Basin pawn that holds the Gear Wheel token. When moving, treat the Gear Wheel token like a Basin pawn, skipping the space it occupies.

THE STEAM MACHINE'S TURNS

On The Machine’s turn, it will always move one space in a clockwise direction, whether that space is occupied by a Basin pawn or not. When it moves onto a space with a Basin pawn, slide the Gear Wheel token over the top of that pawn.

After moving, The Machine will collect the top Fountain tile from the adjacent stack. The Machine does not build a Fountain, but collects tiles into its own supply.

Leave all Machine tiles visible for Reward scoring.

The Machine will always trigger Rewards when it ends its movement on the White, Blue, or Green space on the Basin board. This occurs whether or not there is a pawn on that space. The associated Rewards will always be triggered.
