Question about Lini


Pathfinder Adventure Card Game General Discussion


So my roommate and I have been playing this game, and while the rules need some serious technical writing expertise, they are navigable enough that we think we're playing the game correctly. There are, however, a few instances that we're not clear on. The one that comes up most often is Lini's ability to reveal her animal allies and get an additional 1d4 to a roll. Are there any restrictions on this? I can't seem to find any, which implies if she had 4 animal companions with her, then she can just reveal them for a 4d4 bonus to just about any roll. Is this actually the case?


You can't do what your suggesting.

Read the attempting a check section again in the rule book.
It say each character can use each one of their powers no more than once per check.

So at most Lini will only be able to reveal on animal ally for 1 d4. But she can do this for each check for any type of check, so it's still a pretty good power.


2 things :

1. One character cannot use more than one card per type per check, so she can't reveal the 4 of them on the same check.

2. Only on checks, so not all rolls can benefit... but most of them!


Alright, thanks, I thought it would be something like that. I love this game, but I swear the rules needed about another two or three pages of explanation and examples.


Now I'm curious about another thing as well, if anyone can help. If two heroes are in the same location and one encounters an enemy that requires one combat check and then another, what happens if they fail the second check? Can the other hero pick up that second combat check? Or do they need to defeat both as well?

Silver Crusade

I'm pretty sure each combat check can only be attempted once. So once it's failed, that's it.
