Tips lineae

The goal of Lineae is to be the player with the most victory points after 7 rounds or after 8 all rockets have launched.

Earning Victory Points

There are two primary ways to earn victory points:

Filling rockets with mineral cubes

You'll need to have mineral cubes in your surface vessel, move your research vessel to be located below the rocket you wish to load, then select the Launch Pad action.

Do obtain mineral cubes, you'll generally want to dock with and unload them from submersibles (at a cost of $1/cube).

To load cubes into submersibles, you or another player will need to move those submersibles around on the ocean surface and load mineral cubes (which earns $1/cube).

Excavating deposit tiles

Instead of bringing submersibles up to the surface of the water to dock with your surface vessel, you can pilot them down to the ocean floor to excavate a mineral deposit. This moves you along the excavation track for that tile and earns you VP and possibly other bonuses.
