Zack!: Push a target turtle shell up to 6 squares. If the shell moves into a square adjacent to a Hero, its movement ends immediately. The Roller Toad immediately makes an offense roll against that Hero, with 1 per square the shell moved. This roll does not use the Roller Toad's STR.

When Turtle is active at the start of this model's activation, replace the shell with the original model, which may act normally and activate Turtle again.

Translator's Notes
These notes are the translator's, not part of the card text. They list every term that was rendered into English, so that a player can check the wording against the German set.
Attributes. ATT is read as STR, RÜS as ARM, GES as DEX, and WILL is unchanged. These follow the four attributes of the base rulebook.
Keywords that match the base rulebook's terms: Backlash (Zurückschlagen), Burst (Explosion), Augment (Verstärken), Dangerous (Gefährlich), Heal (Heilen), Immune (Immun), Insignificant (Unbedeutend), Knockdown (Umwerfen), Slow (Langsam), Ice (Frost, as a status effect), Fire (Feuer), Cross (Kreuz), Wave (Welle), Lance (Lanze), Missile (Geschoss), Range (Reichweite), Hookshot (Hakenschuss), Stealth (Tarnung), Tough (Robust), Status Effects (Zustandseffekte), spawning point (Portal).
Keywords not in the base rulebook (translator's rendering of the German term; check against the German card set if in doubt): Tunneler (Tunnelgräber), Turtle (Schildkröte), Dodge (Ausweichen), Immobile (Unbeweglich), Massive Damage (Massiver Schaden), Vulnerable (Verwundbar), Stun (Betäuben), Choke (Würgen), Weaken (Schwächen), Strike Range (Schlagweite), Little Splash (Kleiner Spritzer), Splash (Spritzer), Shell Shock (Panzerschock), Turtle Clatter (Schildkrötenscheppern), Turtle Cannon (Schildkrötenkanone), Turtle Power (Schildkröten-Power), Fire Ring (Feuerreif), Starlight (Sternenschein), Feast (Festmahl), Fire Bile (Feuergalle), Riddle of Steel (Rätsel des Stahls), Burning Chitin (Brennendes Chitin), Ash Cloud (Aschewolke), Fire Blast (Feuerstoß), Earth Shock (Erdstoß), Wobble (Wackeln), Splat (Platsch), Zack! (Zack!), Favor, Pledge and Kiss of the Maiden (Gunst, Pfand und Kuss der Maid), Until Her Dying Day (Bis an ihr Lebensende), Boomerang (Bumerang), Bow (Bogen), Acorn Grenade (Eichelgranate), Fairy Syrup (Feensirup). "Weaken" is the least certain of these: it is the literal reading of Schwächen on the Roxor card, and the status it applies is not named on the card.
Printed names. Heroes and bosses use the English names from the BGG listing (Roxor, Rock Gut the Troll, Princess Ruby, Deeproot Scout, Star Guild Sapper). The BGG listing spells the third hero "Scrapper"; the German card reads "Sappeur" and is rendered "Sapper". Other names are translated from the German: Rock Pile (Felshaufen), Rock Top (Felsrücken), Lava Vortex (Lavawirbel), Blazing Beetle (Loderkäfer), Ember Hound (Gluthund), Burning Gel (Brandgel), Fire Gel (Feuergel), Smasher Toad (Schmetterkröte), Roller Toad (Walzkröte), Bombard Toad (Bombardkröte), Dawdler Toad (Bummelkröte), Turtle (Schildkröte), Roxor's Curse (Roxors Fluch), Clatter & Rumble (Polter & Rumpel), Wobbling Stalactite (Wackelnder Stalaktit), Fool's Gold (Narrengold), Fire Gel Glob (Feuergelgliber), Grisly-Grim Granite Greaves (Grausig-Grimme Granit-Beinschienen). The product name "Rock Top Gang" comes from the BGG listing.
Rule priority. The card texts govern (see Rule Priority in the base rulebook). Two card texts differ in mechanics from the base rulebook's entries of the same name. Stealth on the Ember Hound is a DEX roll that subtracts stars from the attacker's range; the base Stealth ability reduces range by 3. Tunneler is an action that places the model up to six squares away, which is not the base Burrow ability.
Layout. The card file prints some cards twice on a sheet (Rock Pile, Roller Toad, the Roxor adventure side and the Wobbling Stalactite). Each is transcribed once. Card flavour text, copyright lines and the sheet instructions are not reproduced.
Not reproduced. Hearts, attribute values and skull point values printed on the game cards are not in this rulebook, and the Fairy Syrup symbol is shown as "[symbol not reproduced]". Action point costs are given where the card prints them as a number in a circle.
