Hi, should the Sistrum of Bastest say:

"You may reveal this card..." for its first power rather than "discard" otherwise the "additionally you may discard this card to add your dexterity or charisma skill" can't be used?

For quite a while our group has wondered about traits on checks (especially with spells)- and banes immune to particular traits.

I am now more confused as we had come to a reasoning that if the Traits listed that element, then the bane would be immune, even though some spells specifically said certain damage traits. BUT the example for encountering a villain has the undeaed dragon Tukanem-Hanam who is immune to Poison being defeated by Clinging Venom which has the Poison Trait.

An error? Or is the Bane actually only immune if it says use your x+dy and the Z trait.

In WotR there are quite a lot of barriers in particular that require the acrobatics skill (e.g.. many of the armies)- why are there no characters who actually have acrobatics? Rolling d4s to defeat an army on difficulty 23 is really quite taxing when you have to do it 7 times!

Unless of course you are lucky enough to have the quarterstaff of vaulting and/or (as we do) Shardra with the ability to use her knowledge instead against them.

How does the banish ability on this card work? Is it only if you end your turn with it in your hand?

Did e-mail this through more than 2 weeks ago, but apparently nobody bothers to reply:

Hi, the two final maps in the adventure (the warehouse and Engineering) appear to be missing markers- where are the unsealed doors and the crate? Where is the weak pipe?

Thank you
