I've been playing through SotR with some friends at home and one of them is going to be out of town for a couple of weeks so we're taking a break while he's gone. However, I realize that I won't last that long without playing this awesome game! Since I own the box and subsequent adventures it will be easy for me to do some solo play. We are currently playing through Adventure 3, though we are all tier 4 characters as we played the first adventure in SotS prior to starting SotR.
I'd like to keep this character legal in case I ever do play it outside of home play.
My first question is if I am using "companion character(s)" who will gain rewards and upgrades but not get chronicle sheets or be registered, can I use the rules for creating a character at higher tier? (i.e. Option 1 or 2 from page 7 of the SotR Guild Guide) In this case a tier 3 character.
Does the below rule from the WotR rule book legal in Guild play?
"When you encounter a card your character just can’t deal with,
remove it from the game and replace it with another card of the
same type that roughly matches its power level but isn’t quite
so impossible to overcome." (pg. 18 from WotR rulebook)
My second question is regarding not advancing to the next tier. Since we are already tier 4 I don't want to advance to tier 5 as then I won't be able play tier 3 adventures with my friends when we resume play. As long as I don't take the card feat or adventure reward for Adventure 3 can I play any and all of the 4 scenarios without advancing? We've completed 1-3A and 1-3B. Can I play 1-3C and 1-3D and not take the card feat and not take the adventure reward but take deck upgrades and remain at tier 4? Can I replay the scenarios too (for deck upgrades) multiple times and not advance?
Thanks!
