Rules 26:02 - Outro Corrections: During setup I put the Council card on the right side, but technically it should be on the left. I don't think this would really affect gameplay, but they do say to put it on the left in the rules. I say that you can't tax systems with a Flagship, but that's not correct. However since you don't place cities on the board anymore, you can only tax systems that you control unless you have the Control Array upgrade. I mention that protected cards can't be removed from their owner's control unless they outrage that resource. This rule has been updated to add "or if the card is referenced by name" Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/rtfmshow Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/rtfmshow Personal Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/sheasayswords Want to check out the gaming table I use? https://bandpassdesign.com #tutorial #boardgames #RTFM #rtfmshow
