Rules quiz
How much of Pandemic Legacy: Season 2 do you still remember? Each question opens on its answer.
When you start your turn in a location with 3 Plague cubes, how many exposures do you gain?
You gain exactly 1 exposure, no matter how many Plague cubes are in that location.
How much does Local Production add to a location that already has more Supply cubes than its population?
It adds nothing, because Local Production only fills your current location up to its population.
During the Infect step of an Epidemic, what happens if the city drawn from the bottom of the Infection deck has no Supply cubes?
You remove all Supply cubes from that city but add no Plague cubes, even if it was already empty.
What happens when an Infection card is drawn for a city that already has 3 Plague cubes?
The city outbreaks, removing 1 Supply cube from every adjacent location, placing a Plague cube and moving the Incident marker up 1 for each adjacent location with no cubes, and triggering chain reaction outbreaks after the current one in any adjacent location already at 3 Plague cubes.
How does rationing change after a won game and after a lost game?
A win lowers rationing by 2 to a minimum of 0, and a loss raises rationing by 2 to a maximum of 10.
