How to cross out bonus fields
If you have already crossed out a number of a normal colored row (e.g. the green 10), you can now cross out the neighbouring two-color bonus field, if the same number is rolled again (in this example, the green 10). This also applies if you're using a corresponding "white number" (white 10). You may not cross out a bonus field if you have not already crossed out at least one neighbouring colored field.
Example (diagram on the sheet, described in text): Sarah has crossed out the yellow 3 and the red 5. If she ever rolls a yellow 3 or a red 5 again on her turn, she can cross out the neighbouring bonus field. She can also cross it out, if she (or another player) rolls a white 3 or a white 5.
What else you need to know?
- For both of the bonus rows the general rule also applies: Numbers must be crossed out from left to right and previously skipped bonus fields may not be crossed out later on.
- A colored row, as in the original game, can be locked after crossing out the number on the far right of the colored row as long as it is (at least) the 6th crossed out number of this colored row. Crossed out bonus fields do not count towards the minimum number of required crossed out fields (minimum of 6) to be able to lock a colored row.
- If a colored row has already been locked (e.g. green), the neighbouring bonus fields can still be crossed out as described. Bonus fields crossed out, even after one colored row has been locked, count for both neighbouring colored rows when counting the score at the end.
- If you cross out only a bonus field after completing both actions on your turn, this does not count as a misthrow.
Scoring example
Example (scoring diagram on the sheet, described in text): Sarah has crossed out 3 red-yellow bonus fields. The 3 crossed out numbers count towards her point total for both the red and the yellow rows. Sarah has also crossed out 4 green-blue bonus fields. These 4 crossed out numbers count towards her point total for both the green and the blue rows.
Note: Although you are allowed to cross out more than 15 numbers (including neighbouring bonus fields), a maximum of 15 crossed out numbers per colored row count towards your score.
