In the multiplayer puzzle game Railroad Ink\u2122, your goal is to connect as many exits on your board as possible.
Each round, a set of dice is rolled in the middle of the table, determining which kind of road and railway routes are available to all players.<\/h3>

The Underground Expansion Pack contains 4 dice that you can use in two ways.<\/p>

With the Standalone mode<\/strong>, you use them instead of the normal Route dice, to build underground networks of Subway Routes<\/strong> and Water Pipes<\/strong> to score points in a whole new way.<\/p>

With the Expansion mode<\/strong>, you use them together with the normal Route dice, but without mixing them! You need two boards<\/strong> for each player, one for the Surface<\/strong> and one for the Underground<\/strong>. The basic Route dice are used on the Surface board (following the normal rules), while the Underground dice (and rules) are used on the Underground board!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

\"RailroadUnderground is a single 4 dice expansion. Manage an underground network of Subways and Water Pipes. You can use the Underground dice either as an Expansion<\/strong> to the base game or as a Standalone<\/strong> game.<\/p>

To play with the Underground dice as an Expansion, you need two boards<\/strong> for each player: one board for the Surface<\/strong> and one for the Underground<\/strong>. You will play alternating<\/strong> between Surface and Underground rounds for a total of 14 rounds<\/strong>: 7 Surface rounds and 7 Underground rounds. Start with a Surface round<\/strong>, following the normal rules of the Railroad Ink version whose boards you chose as the Surface boards.<\/p>

During an Underground round, the Underground dice are rolled and every player must<\/strong> draw the results of these dice on their Underground board, following the Underground placement restrictions<\/strong>.<\/p>

The the two boards interact in two ways<\/strong>: you can create Hubs<\/strong> and gain points by matching the positions of Subway Stations and surface Stations; additionally, you will break a pipe<\/strong> and lose points if you draw a surface Station above a Water Pipe space.<\/p>

Creating a Hub:<\/strong> If a surface Station and an underground Subway Station share the same space, fill the Subway Station: it is now a Hub.<\/p>

Breaking a Pipe:<\/strong> Drawing a Station \u201con top\u201d of a pipe will break it, but not vice-versa.<\/p>

\"RailroadWhen playing the Standalone version, you only play with the Underground board. Follow the rules of the Expansion Mode with just a few changes:<\/p>

Play only for 7 rounds<\/strong>.<\/p>

Don\u2019t use<\/strong> a Surface board and the white Route dice.<\/p>

Ignore<\/strong> all the interaction rules between the Surface and Underground boards.<\/p>
