Iniziamo giocare
Each player receives a random roller card at the beginning and with 2/3/4 players 4/3/2 player cards as hand cards.
Svolgimento
Each player performs the following actions in succession:
- Plan and execute four actions
- Two player cards
- Spreading disease
Plan and execute actions
Each player has up to four action points in his play, which he may use as desired. Various actions are available to him. Executable actions are shown in colour.
Movements:
Cars
This allows you to drag your poplar into an adjacent city. Adjacent are all cities connected by a red line. This also applies to cities on the edge of the schedule (e.g. Sydney and Los Angeles). Each train to an adjacent city costs a point of action.
Direct flights
This allows you to fly directly into a city whose player card you own. The card must be issued for this. The flight costs a point of action.
Charter flight
If you are in a city whose player card you own, you can fly from there to any city. The card must be issued for this. The flight costs a point of action.
Access flight
If you are in a city with a research laboratory, you can fly from there for an action point to any other city in which a research laboratory is located.
Specific functions:
Treat disease
If you are in a city where epidemic cubes already lie, you can remove a epidemic cube for one action point.
If an antidote has already been developed to this disease, all the epidemic cubes of this city can be removed at once.
Building research laboratory
If you are in a city whose player card is kept on hand, you can build a research laboratory in this city for an action point. The player card of this city then comes to the deposit pile. If no research laboratories are available in stock, an already set laboratory may be transferred.
Developing antidote
In order to develop an antidote, a player must have five cards of a color and are located in a city with a research laboratory. For an action point, it can then develop the antidote corresponding to the color of its five cards.
If an antidote has been developed for a disease and there is no more epidemic cube of this color on the field of play, this disease is considered to be erased. In the further course of the game no cubes of this color are brought into play.
sharing knowledge
With the "share knowledge" action, a player can pass a card to a fellow player or get one of them. It is necessary to both Players in the Stop town. This city must be the one whose card is to be passed on. This action costs a point of action.
With the top symbol you can pass a card, with the middle symbol you can get a card. When clicking on one of the symbols, a selection of the cards that can be passed on or received appears, as well as a selection of players to which the cards can be forwarded or received.
Alex wants to give Sven his food card because Sven has already collected four blue cards. Alex and Sven have to meet in Essen.
If a player has more than seven cards on his hand after this action, he must discard countless cards. If he has event cards on his hand, he can also play them instead of discarding them.
A player can also finish his move without running all four actions.
Postcards
After the player has carried out his four actions, he receives two player cards from the draw-off pile. The player draws Epidemic cardan epidemic is triggered (see Epidemic). He has more than seven Cards on the hand, he has to discard countless cards. If he has event cards on his hand, he can also play them instead of discarding them. A player can play event cards at any time without cost even outside his train.
When the game situation changes drastically (epidemic pulled or event card pulled) by posting cards, players get the chance to play an event card before the next game phase (e.g. performing or performing epidemic).
To play out an event card, simply click on it and confirms the execution with the green check. If you don't want to play a card, click the red X.
Spreading disease
After a player has pulled two cards, the disease is spread. To this end, as many cards as corresponds to the current rate of infection are successively covered by the pile of infection cards. For each exposed map, a dice of the corresponding color is placed in this city.
If there are already three cubes in a city, no fourth cube is added. Instead, there is a Outbreak the epidemic: A epidemic cube is placed in the colour of the outburst and the outburst marker is pushed further. Such an outbreak can also lead to chain reactions in neighbouring cities if there are also already three epidemic cubes. In these cities the same procedure will be followed. However, no second outbreak can take place in a city within a train.
If Hong Kong were to be pulled here in the example, there would be an outbreak. In each case, a red epidemic cube would be distributed to Shanghai, Taipei, Manila, Ho Chi Minh City, Bangkok and Calcutta. There will also be an outbreak in Shanghai: epidemic cubes will be distributed to Beijing, Seoul, Tokyo and Taipei (Hongkong will no longer be given as an outbreak occurred there). Tokyo and Seoul also break out, etc.
Rollers
There are five different roles for pandemic in the basic game that players take over. Each of these rollers provides benefits in a specific area. The reels are added at start of play. Undistributed reels do not participate in the game.
The Operating expert can set up research laboratories wherever he wants without having to own the corresponding player card. Creation, however, also costs him a point of action.
The Scientists requires only four instead of five cards of a color to develop counter media.
The Doctor fights disease more effectively: if he manages the action "treat disease" in a city, will All Sculpture cubes of a color from this city. If there is an antidote for a color, the doctor can even perform this action without using action points. These properties also apply when the doctor is moved, for example, by the dispatcher.
The Research can perform the action "share knowledge" in any city. To Entering a map he has to go with the player he has the card forward wants to be in the same city, but the card to be passed does not have to be that city. Retained the researcher, however, has a map and the normal rules apply. The special rules for the researcher apply even if he is not on the train and a fellow player carries out the action "sharing knowledge".
The Dispatch in his train with his action points Movements for the pöppel of his fellow players. If he wants to move a player by charter or direct flight, he must play the corresponding card.
As usual, the dispatcher clicks on the desired movement action and then selects the pusher he wants to move.
The dispatcher has an additional possibility of moving: it can beam any poppet to any other poplar.
epidemic
If an epidemic card is drawn during the aftermath, an epidemic breaks out immediately:
- The infection rate increases: after 1/2/3/3/4/5/6. Epidemic card is the infection rate at 2/2/3/3/4/4.
- The bottom card of the pile of infection cards is revealed. Three epidemic cubes are placed in this city. If there are already epidemic cubes of this color in this city, the outbreak. If there are no more enough epidemic cubes of this color, the game ends. The Stacking of Infection Cards mixed and again Top placed on the trailing pile, so that now first the cities in which pathogens have already been spread have come back.
Fine del gioco
The game can end in four ways:
- Players manage to develop all four counters -> the players win against the game.
- There are no longer enough epidemic cubes of a color available to perform an action -> the players lose against the game.
- It comes to the eighth outbreak of a disease (outbreak marker reaches the skull) -> the players lose against the game.
- There are no longer enough cards on the draw-down pile of the player cards, so that a player can draw -> lose the players against the game.

Then a small ellipse sticks to the mouse, which can then be placed on the map with a click in the desired city.
To suggest beaming a poppet to another with the dispatcher, right click the target poppet instead of the arrow.
Undermenu combat disease
In order to combat the suggestion of a disease, the ellipse is placed in the desired city in which epidemic cubes are to be removed.
Submenu Research Lab
For the proposal to build a laboratory, the ellipse is placed in the desired city where a laboratory is to be built.
Share Knowledge
In order to share a proposal for knowledge, first click on the two pushers (left of the giving, right of the receiving) to replace a card. Then the corresponding card color is selected in the middle and a check box is placed under the arrow. Alternatively, you can also select a city by selecting the arrow.
