The rules say to roll the 9-sided die for sectors, but with the addition of Laser Red, there are now 12 sectors. It seems like common sense to roll the 12-sided die to place objects (carrots, pineapples, etc.), but I couldn't find that in the rules. What do you guys do?

It seems like common sense to roll the 12-sided die to place objects (carrots, pineapples, etc.), but I couldn't find that in the rules. What do you guys do? The Deep Blue rules are thus: The coordinate system is a way to locate any hex space ‘address’ on the board. Many times during play, an object (perhaps a ship or a marker) will need to be placed on the board using the coordinate system. To accomplish this task, the d10 (Green) die is rolled first to determine which sector of space to place the object, the d12 (Yellow) die is rolled next to determine the row within the sector, and the d12 (Yellow) die is rolled again to determine the space within the row. Each set of three coordinates is a unique hex space on the board. The Laser Red rules modify this: Each time that a card asks a player to roll for a Random Location (such as the launch of Beyea Aliens), please use the d16 (Blue) die instead of the d10 (Green) die that you have been using. If a 15 or 16 is rolled, then simply roll again. |

If a 15 or 16 is rolled, then simply roll again. I did see this, but I wasn't sure if it also applied for placing things according to the coordinate system. Because there are only 12 sectors, we've been rolling the 12-sided die. I guess, even though it's not explicitly stated in the rules, it wouldn't make sense to do so otherwise. |
