The exploits of the Amber Knight-volume 1

I'm not sure if this is the correct answer and how to be sure about it. Usually a solution is a numbered card with card_pick_thumb on it indicating that the answer is correct. Here is nothing such like this. Just "if you know the answer...".

So there is this book The exploits of the Amber Knight-volume 1, which is a quest to find out
how to kill a certain monster.
. I got
another book titled Restless sleeping boy
which seem to contain the answer to that quest. Is the solution to the quest that
milk must be poured on that monster to defeat it
?

EDIT: beware, last spoiler contains the correct solution!

Question about Purse Storage?

There is no storage at the Citadel. What you can do is to give some items to the new players at the beginning of the game following the rules. Remember you can exceed your purse weight limit until you want to do the move action action_move

Just don't do this, you are spoiling the game for yourself.

The version of card
344 with the banner that has a ring symbol on it
has an action to return all cards on the Board and in the Past and then place card
533
into play and place all figurines onto it. However, the green version of that card isn't a Terrain Card, it's a Permanent Event (though its gold version is a Terrain Card). After looking around some more that card seems to be attached to Terrain Card
573
. Should card
344
's text say
573
instead?

[Checked] Missing Cards : What should I do ?

If you sleeved all cards, check whether you didn't put in one sleeve with card 149...sometimes happens. It is unlikely they leave out just a single card since it comes on one sheet.

Am working through the “A New Beginning” threat. I am missing.card A0591 (card 150). While looking through cards in case it was somehow misplaced I have discovered another missing card A0624 card (175). I have been careful opening and storing cards.

Would like a response from Serious Poulp on how to resolve this issue.

Can I barter blocked items?

Well... some people interpret the rules blocked purse have no effect except its weight. And keywords are part of its effects. So no, blocked purse cards have no keywords.

(On the other hand though... some game effect check if you have a card with a specific keyword AND unblocked at the same time. This only makes sense if blocked cards can have keyword. So I am not sure myself.)

I think you are not allowed to play a skill cards during the Consequence part of the action = you cannot use a skill card, that you obtained as part of the consequence of an action, for that action.


Again, it was already confirmed, that skills/purse cards can be used anytime during the action.LINK

I now played the next scenario with my proposed errata and it was way more interesting again, after it became a bit boring with that exploit.


Let's wait for the official answer from Sarah, I'm really curious myself whether this is even an error or not.

[No error] Two errors

I think people should stop sending "errors" like this. First, they are not gameplay errors, at worst they are just typos which won't affect anything. Second, there is a high chance it is not even a typo since there are many many words which iare just different. This world has its own language.

Omg what? Do NOT take them apart! Why would you do that? Just rotate the discs and set the life.

Timing of Use ? (Satchel Card / Hand card)

Call me stupid, but the more we discuss how timing and effect resolution works the more I am confused. Can we just list all the cards which can be applied twice using the You are focused card?

However, be careful, for this to work the card must have been discarded, which happens once all its effects have been applied or at step 4-B of the action resolution otherwise.

For example, a card like Improvise (D) could not be used in this way (Add 1 card to your hand only applies at step 4-B and it will be discarded at that time).


Wait, this is something new and not covered in the rulebook...
So you say card effects like "Discard this." and "Block this." can not be activated until ALL of the card effects are resolved?

So this specific Improvize card with the hand_blue_addsymbol cannot be used twice with You are focused card because of this? Maybe can I just forfeit the hand_blue_add effect (and not use it later) of Improvize and discard it in the 3.C Result step?

"Kickstarter exclusive" content seems pretty anti-consumer to me.

In fact, the effect of selected card_type_purse cards and card_type_skill cards in hand can be used at any time during the action resolution.

What is stated in step "3.C Apply the effects of their cards" is that this is the moment when the effect of these cards is applied "in order to get additional successes and/or take additional cards into account and/or convert class icons into various bonuses." For all other effects, they apply at the step concerning them, or at the moment you decide.


Thank you for confirming this. Let me bring an example to check if this play is legal during the Consequence step - top row are the revealed cards, bottom row is my hand:

  1. Activate Consider and take Anticipation to my hand.
  2. Discard Consider.
  3. Activate Anticipation in my hand and shuffle Improvize and Jack of trades back to action deck.
  4. Discard Anticipation.

I don't think they can be used at _any time_ as the rulebook is clear that by default skill cards (and gear cards too) are used during the Result step.

Hi all, sorry for the confusion, in my example I meant Casek's Determination and Improvize, both of which can be used at any time (not only Gear-Up step) and get discarded on use (not blocked). I've updated the original post to represent this.

There is another skill card which does the same as Card 150 and I use it like I described. However, this will not work for Determitnation as it has to be used during the GEAR-UP step.


Actually your example is not so good because in order to use improvize you have to block it, not discard it. Otherwise a valid example


I just checked and my Improvize is discarded after use. Maybe you use a different character.

Sorry, I did not remember how Improvize worked... but you got the point.

I think you made an error "your may read" is not grammatically correct.

Pay special attention when applying the big Drums of desolation booklet sticker so you would not cover what should not be covered - compare with the official errata PDF.
Specifically, that sticker should cover texts up to the "If you want to restart this scenario immediately:" line which should not be covered.

Scenario Respite

In this scenario there are some side quests available to choose from and at the end it is checked if the quest is finished with a Dialogue book number. If I can't finish the side quest during that scenario but I finish later in a different scenario., can I return to that epilogue and check the outcome? Or are the unfinished quests failed for good?
