Missing Step in Kingdom Rules, Edict Phase (UCam)

[Evil Genius Prime]

On page 206 of Ultimate Campaign in the Edict Phase section, Step 3 was left out. It goes from Step 2 to Step 4. Should Step 3 have been "Abandon Hexes"? If not, what was Step 3 supposed to be?

I posted this in the Rules Questions section but no one seemed to know, and my thread got jacked by someone asking other rules questions about that didn't relate to my question. So I thought I'd try it here. Sorry for the second posting.

Anyone? Anyone? Bueller? Bueller?

In my original turnover, Step 2 was "Issue Edicts" - where you would adjust your edict levels for the standard edicts and issue one "special edict" per month, then step 3 was "Claim and Abandon Hexes."

During development, it seems that they moved the "Issue Edicts" official step to the end but didn't renumber the earlier phases.

In short, I don't think a step is missing; I think it's just a numbering error.

Either that or step 3 was SO AWESOME that the gods erased it. What it was, only scholars can speculate.

[Jason Nelson]

Well, by definition it was clearly SO AWESOME. Totally!

But since I have the original turnover files I sent to Sean, I can be pretty sure that the gods didn't erase it. No speculation required. :)

It's a renumbering error.

Feel free to add:

Step 3—Secret Step: There is no Step 3.

(If you renumber the Edict Phase steps on pages 206-207, be sure to change "Step 7" in the sidebar on page 207 to "Step 6.")

Whoa.

Step 3—Secret Step

The first rule of Step 3: Don't talk about Step 3.

Thanks for getting back with me everyone. :)

Thanks for your "Step 3" explanation, Sean. Cracked me right up. :D

It's like the spoon. It does not exist.
