When I follow a Utilize a Colony die, can I activate a planet colonized by the active player?
No
When following, you activate the die as if you have rolled it yourself, so you can only choose from the planets you have colonized yourself (or you may choose to upgrade your empire, paying the usual cost).

Yes
When following, you activate the die as if you have rolled it yourself. So in this case you must pay the number of resources, equal to the next level of your Empire Track.
When I follow a die, do I get the exact same rewards as the active player?
No
When you follow a die, you activate this die as if you have rolled it yourself. So, for example, when following an Acquire Energy die, the active player may gain 3 energy, while you may gain only 2 (because you have 2 of your ships next to an energy symbol).
When the Rogue Galaxy reaches max culture and rolls Acquire Culture dice (as a part of the 3 bonus actions), does it gain any culture?
No

Where does a Rogue ship move?
Leftmost orbit

Can I follow Rogue Galaxy's dice?
