Pre-populated Gears?

[20181180]

Question:

Can the pre-populated gears on the Airships (1 on the 3rd rotor, 2 on the 4th rotor) be moved to another rotor?

Simple question, but our team can't seem to find the answer anywhere in the manual...

Thanks

Rule H10 has at least some of your answer, but not all of it. It may be worth looking at the field drawings (it's reasonable to assume the pre-populated gears are locked down somehow) and/or asking Q&A when it opens.

EDIT: Sorry swear I saw it on another post, just listen to the person before me.

Different question.

One rule (I don't have the manual on me) states that gears cannot be removed once they are placed.

They cannot be removed once they are used to start a rotor.

And then the question becomes two-fold:
1) If they have not been used to start a rotor, can they be moved to another location?
2) Does the answer to 1 still apply if they are pre-placed?

Very interesting question. I don't know the answers, but I think I know what they would be if asked.

Additionally if they can be moved, can they be moved in auto. I suspect that they will not be movable, but if they are movable it will not be allowed in auto.

The gears that are already place either pregame or during the game cannot be moved.

Can you please share where you found this information? H10 was already mentioned but does not seem to fit the proposed situation.

Source? Haven't found it yet in the Manual.
