what can i do on my turn?
Answered counted as answeredOn your turn, you must perform the following actions in sequential order: * **Move Action Token:** You must place your action token on a different section of your Player Mat than where it was on your previous turn [1][2]. This includes the option to use a Factory card as a fifth section [3]. * **Take Actions:** On the chosen section, you may take the top-row action (optional), the bottom-row action (optional), or both actions in order from top to bottom [1][2]. You may also choose to take neither action while still moving your token [1]. * When taking an action, you must first pay the cost (red boxes) and then gain as much or as little of the benefit (green boxes) as you wish [1][2]. * You may use resources gained from a top-row action to pay for the bottom-row action on that same section [1]. * If you choose to take a bottom-row action, you may continue to pay for additional coins even after achieving a star for that action [4][2]. * **Objectives:** You may reveal a completed objective card during your turn before or after completing a top- or bottom-row action [1][5][6]. * **Movement Specifics:** If you use a Move action, you must move different units (not the same unit multiple times) [2]. If using a Factory card for a Move action, you may move one unit up to two times within that single action [3].

retrieval — what the search arm returned
score = the fused retrieval score (reciprocal-rank fusion over the search arms) — NOT a cosine similarity. How many arms fused this ruling was NOT RECORDED (it predates the boost trail, ran on the path that stored none, or stored one that could not be read), and the ceiling depends on that count (ceiling = arms/(k+1) at k=60): 2 arms top out at 0.03279; 3 arms top out at 0.04918. So a score above 0.03279 here is not an anomaly: it is arithmetic proof a boost arm voted, and the measured band 0.016–0.033 (taken on two-arm asks) is what does not apply. A chunk only one arm ranked highly lands near 0.016 (that one arm's #1 vote), so 0.03 here is an excellent hit, not a 3% match.
per-arm ranks (the rank each search arm gave a chunk): NOT DISCLOSED by the gateway. Fusion happens gateway-side and only the FUSED score crosses the wire, so rulesage cannot show them without a gateway change. The rank column below is the FUSED rank (position in the returned list), which is real.
token count per chunk: NOT DISCLOSED — chunk token counts are not reported on the ask path. The character counts below are of the bounded snippet/quote rulesage actually received — a real measurement of what we hold, never an estimate of the chunk.

- stream path
- not recorded — this ruling predates the stream-path column (V41)
- watchdog
- first-token watchdog: 30s per arming window (rulesage.table.first-token-watchdog-seconds), re-armed once by the passages frame — so the worst case before a reader falls back to polling is 60s. Whether it actually fired is a BROWSER-side decision that never reaches the server, so it is not recorded here. The stream path above is the server's half of that story: whether a delta was emitted at all.
- num_ctx · think posture
- both are the CHILD's settings, not rulesage's, and no ask reply carries them — an answer never states which context window or think posture produced it. The live-seat line above reads them from the running child instead, where the gateway can answer for itself; it describes the child NOW, not this ask.

errata registry — what the gate above had to match against
this game registers NO errata cards (edition 2), so "no registered errata card matched" above could never have matched one
Errata scope: the gate above matched this ruling's own edition only. When an ask also reads an expansion, that expansion's own registered errata cards stay outside the match — a stated phase-1 limitation, not a failed lookup.
