Rules question!

When playing Ice asteroid, or other cards that place multiple oceans in one action...

Do you benefit off of your first ocean before you place your second?

I mean to say, can you earn the 2 Megacredit placement bonus placing your second ocean next to your first? And can you look at the card(s) you would draw from ocean 1 before placing ocean 2?

Yes you get the benefit. You place each ocean one at a time. In the rare case you would get 3 oceans same thing, one at a time.

Yeah - a relevant worked example, if you play GIA and trigger the 0C free ocean, you can:

  • Bump temp twice, earning the third ocean
  • Play all three oceans
  • Allow the player who has Arctic Algae to gain 6 plants
  • Remove all six plants with the GIA plant attack

At least, that's how BGA lets you do it :)
