Shackleton Base: A Journey to the Moon

← All Shackleton Base: A Journey to the Moon questions

Can you build a solar panel outside a Command action, such as a Lunar Gateway action or a bonus build?

The rulebook limits panel building to a Command action, and several players and a relayed designer answer agree.

No. A solar panel is built only during a Command action, once per turn. A Lunar Gateway action, or a bonus or immediate build on its own, cannot place a new one, though you can still use a panel that is already powered. If the funding or build happens within a Command action you took, you may build your one panel during that action.
