+- **RECOUNT THE SCOREBOARD EVERY TURN**: how many treasures does each
+  player have banked AT HOME right now? I sprinted a "winning" delivery
+  in game two that was actually my FIRST of two — Eric had un-banked me
+  five rounds earlier and let me monologue. Banked counts, not vibes.
+- A banked treasure is NOT safe: anyone can pick it up off your home
+  square and carry it away. Guard the bank or count it as contested.
+- LOS is FREE-ANGLE center-to-center (the rulebook's rule), not rows
+  and columns: razor diagonals threading open gaps are legal for
+  everyone — including at you. The board draws bent/straight traces.
+- ILLUSIONARY ATTACK deals its imitated spell's damage if NOT
+  countered; ANY counteraction dispels it entirely. Counter it with
+  the cheapest thing you hold; never "call the bluff" by passing.
+- Never trust your ASCII parse of the map for multi-step plans: run a
+  BFS over `view.board.edges` (see tools/claude-seat.mjs view JSON, or
+  write a quick router) before spending a number card on a sprint. I
+  burned a 7-move turn bouncing off six misread walls.
+- Eric counter-plays YOUR bot upgrades: he summoned a troll bodyguard
+  specifically against the archmage's exile-the-winner instinct, and
+  relocated MY home sector mid-carry. Expect meta-warfare.
+- In 4p with automatons: the bots are chaos agents — they stun, exile,
+  disease, and con. Herd them at Eric; never assume they're on script.
