Great Lakes
Difficulty: ★★☆☆☆
Set up four water (Great Lake) cups next to your game cups. If the opposition sinks a Great Lake, you receive +2 shots on your next turn. Great Lakes are not removed when sunk, and you can change the location of the Great Lakes each time you are re-racked. Grenades can trigger this ability, but you cannot choose Great Lakes as collateral for bounce shots.
