Dash! is a collectible Boost card that can be acquired from the Base Pack.
Effect[]
Upon use, the player gains the Dash! stock effect, which applies a x2 multiplier to the number of dice used in the player's movement rolls for the rest of their turn. This includes the initial roll, as well as any additional rolls caused by Move or Warp Move panels.
Notes[]
- Other effects which increase the number of movement dice can stack multiplicatively with Dash. However, there is a hard maximum of 4 dice that can be used in a movement roll, regardless of how many of these effects are stacked at once.
- Effects which increase or decrease MOV are applied after the final result of the dice roll, meaning they are not applied to each die.
- Effects which set the movement dice to a fixed value are applied to every dice individually.

On the other side of the coin, Dash! is an excellent escape card in most situations.

It is also useful for skipping dangerous portions of the board, such as areas with a high concentration of Encounter or Warp panels.
As a result of the two uses for the card countering each other, players should consider whether adding Dash! to their deck will be a help or a hindrance. If the player is using an aggressive character and the opponent draws Dash!, the card can easily be used to run from the player. Likewise, if the player is trying to escape and the opponent draws their Dash! it can quickly lead to a swift KO. The card is also not guaranteed to move the character far. At its worst, the player might roll snake eyes, nullifying any usefulness the card might have held.
