Rules quiz
How much of Endeavor: Deep Sea do you still remember? Each question opens on its answer.
Which actions require a second disc from your Staging Area in addition to the disc placed on the Specialist?
Sonar, Conserve, and Journal each need a second disc, which must come from your Staging Area and never from your supply.
When you spend a Dive token, what do you get from it?
You take either its Research or its effect, never both, and the token goes to the discard pile.
How many Dive tokens may you keep on your mat at the end of your turn?
You may keep only 1 token, and you must spend any extras.
What happens if an attribute cube would advance past the end of its track?
The cube goes back to the Impact symbol and you gain that Impact again.
How is leftover Research converted into points at the end of the game?
You add your leftover Research, including Research on a stored Dive token, to the discs in your Staging Area, divide by 3, and score that many points, dropping any remainder.
