Temporary alias text on rulebook page 7 applies only to the Burned icondesigner
- RULING
- "The text, 'When you start your next turn, choose a temporary alias. Use that temporary alias for the rest of that game.' should have been indented. It's a continuation of the paragraph above and applies to the flame icon only."

- RULING
- "I verified with Rob and that is, indeed, a typo. That should have read, '(from any region).' … For purposes of the extra card then, any City card will do."

DESIGNER CLARIFICATIONS6
Incident effects chain without limit and can hit the same city repeatedlydesigner
- CONTEXT
- A group lost a game to incidents bouncing back and forth between two cities and asked whether a single city can be hit more than once from one initial draw.
- RULING
- "We don't call out an exception in the rulebook because a single city can be hit more than once in a chain of incident effects."
AUTHOR: mleacock (Matt Leacock, designer)SOURCE: boardgamegeek.com(19 replies, 34 thumbs)DATE: 2020-10-25"Region X or Region Y" on a card effect means both regions, not a choicedesigner
- CONTEXT
- Card text of the form "Players in Europe or Africa (that are not in a safehouse) each lose 1 cover" was being read as affecting only one of the two named regions.
- RULING
- "Here's what we intended, in verbose mode: - Each agent in Region X loses 1 cover. - Each agent in Region Y loses 1 cover. - Agents that are in safe houses, however, are immune from this effect."

- CONTEXT
- The Commercial Flight action says to reveal an allied City card, but hands are already face up, so players were unsure what "reveal" required.
- RULING
- "the cards are revealed already since they're face up. For purposes of play, you can simply point to the card in your hand. The key thing is that you don't need to discard it."
AUTHOR: mleacock (Matt Leacock, designer)SOURCE: boardgamegeek.com(4 replies, 12 thumbs)DATE: 2020-12-28Surveillance stickers may be placed over Counter-Surveillance stickersdesigner
- CONTEXT
- Players asked whether a space holding a Counter-Surveillance sticker is protected from receiving a new Surveillance sticker during the after-game step.
- RULING
- "Counter surveillance can be covered up by surveillance."
AUTHOR: RobDaviau (Rob Daviau, designer)SOURCE: boardgamegeek.com(5 replies, 30 thumbs)DATE: 2020-10-21You may deliberately fail an Acquire Targets objectivedesigner
- RULING
- "You can fail an Acquire Targets objective by picking a city you know is the wrong one but you must still have an active team in that city."
AUTHOR: RobDaviau (Rob Daviau, designer)SOURCE: boardgamegeek.com(4 replies, 9 thumbs)DATE: 2020-10-21The Medical Conference Coordinator's move ability is usable once per actiondesigner
- CONTEXT
- The alias's ability moves a team or another player up to 3 spaces as an action; players asked whether spending several actions on it in one turn was intended.
- RULING
- The ability may be used once for each action, so a single player can move pieces up to 3 spaces four times in one turn. Leacock: "You are correct. It is indeed that good."

EDGE CASES3
"Shift each team to Washington" places teams there directly, regardless of distancedesigner
- SITUATION
- The Teams Compromised incident effect reads "Shift each team in a city with surveillance (that is not in a safehouse) to Washington." It was unclear whether affected teams move one space toward Washington or are placed in Washington outright.
- RULING
- The teams are placed in Washington outright. Daviau: "Directly to Washington."
AUTHOR: RobDaviau (Rob Daviau, designer)SOURCE: boardgamegeek.com(3 replies, 6 thumbs)DATE: 2020-10-29Scramble Teams does not enter the cities it passes throughdesigner
- SITUATION
- The Scramble Teams event moves a team up to 3 cities away, and players asked whether the team passes through — and therefore enters — the cities in between, as a separate character ability explicitly says it does not.
- RULING
- The team is placed directly into its destination and does not enter the intervening cities, so effects that trigger on entering a city do not apply. Leacock confirmed the answer: "Matthew is correct."
AUTHOR: mleacock (Matt Leacock, designer)SOURCE: boardgamegeek.com(4 replies, 4 thumbs)DATE: 2020-12-09Encoded Messages cannot be used to swap Symptom cardsdesigner
- SITUATION
- Encoded Messages has two players each select 1 card from their hand and swap them. Players asked whether any card in hand qualifies, including Symptom cards.
- RULING
- Only player cards — City cards and Event cards — may be swapped this way. Leacock: "Randy is correct. You cannot swap symptoms."

HOW MIRA KNOWS
Not an AI guessing rules. A curated archive.
Every answer Mira gives is grounded in an official rulebook — not in what a language model thinks the rules probably say. Our team reads, structures, and curates each game's rulebook before Mira can answer a single question about it.
An opponent's settlement blocks your road network — your road cannot be built through or past an occupied intersection.
◆ Catan — Roads & Building, p. 7
At the end of each round, the player with the most of the goal trait scores points equal to their amount; the player with the second most scores fewer.
◆ Wingspan — End of Round, p. 11
Null cards deal 0 damage regardless of base value or any bonuses applied.
◆ Gloomhaven — Attack Modifier Deck, p. 23
