<p>With this quest out, there should be at least 2 shield tokens. You also added 17 to it's deck, which gives you a way to get the third one out.</p>

<p>Card 16, "All Aboard", has a condition "Place the third shield on the map". </p>

<p>This is the condition to complete this quest, so how can I as a player complete this condition? What third shield? Place it how? Place it where on the map?</p>

This card is the prime example of one of the biggest stumbling blocks in this game IMO: cards usually don't spell out exactly how certain things are done. Don't get me wrong, I like the game quite a bit. However it takes a lot of getting used to since as far as I can tell there are many similar scenarios which are incredibly vague and not directly written in the rulebook, but they largely resolve in similar manners (i.e. the encounter decks).

# Fallout Board Game: How to resolve card 16

(Asked by: username_0 on 2017-12-08)

Card 16, "All Aboard", has a condition "Place the third shield on the map".

This is the condition to complete this quest, so how can I as a player complete this condition? What third shield? Place it how? Place it where on the map?
