Fear effects from fell abilities

Mon 20 Feb 2023, 21:03

I'm sure this question has already been brought up, but couldn't find it elsewhere...If multiple undead adversaries have a shadow producing effect, do they stack up??!

Are you using the updated PDF? Note that in the updated pdf, lots of foes have Thing of Terror rather than Strike Fear.

"THING OF TERROR: At the start of the first round of the battle all Player-heroes in sight of one or more creatures with this ability gain 3 Shadow points (Dread). Those who fail their Shadow test are daunted and cannot spend Hope for the rest of the fight."

My emphasis above. So in the updated pdf fighting 10 Marsh Dwellers is just one Shadow test. Previously all 10 could trigger Strike Fear, creating a crazy Shadow test nightmare.

No worries, sometimes it helps to ask! Plenty of folk here to help. Glad you have the update files. :)

Just getting back into the forum after a long absence. There are updates to the Core rule book? How does one obtain these?

There are a few options! Happily, Free League provide a range of options. :)

- errata pdf: https://freeleaguepublishing.com/en/gam ... ?downloads
- download updated pdf version of the rulebook (if you own the pdf)
- buy the updated second printing of the rulebook.
- the errata is also included at the end of ruins of the lost realm (pdf and printed version)
