Common Clarifications and Scoring FAQ


A few players have had questions about how scoring works in Rust & Revenue. To make things easier, here’s a quick checklist that covers the most important steps.

Quick Scoring Checklist

  • Treating routes as “snake everything” instead of the best contiguous path from a hub up to Service Capacity.  (Think Winsome's Baltimore and Ohio)
  • Forgetting to count the home hub as $1.
  • Recording only the route value instead of multiplying by the number of shares.
  • Skipping the Presidential Bonus each round.
  • Not using rival hubs when connected.
  • Counting only the biggest train instead of the sum of all trains for Service Capacity.
  • Misvaluing stops (cities $2, towns/hubs $1, mines $0 unless Company #6 at $3). 

If you score the full three rounds, this should bring scores between $150 and $300.  

Thanks for gaming and happy railroading!
