H4ppy, would you take a look at my "Card Recommendation" thread and answer my questions there? I think you are the best fan authority on card sequencing. Essentially, the question boils down to if you evade an encounter, do you REALLY evade the encounter? I think that's a misnomer, as it seems that you still have an encounter and all you did is evade the combat.

"Evading" is a step within "Encountering." You have still encountered a card that you evaded.


Glad to hear it :)

At least I figured that one out correctly!

There are two cards that say "-based": Blessing of Erastil and Blessing of Gorum. The current thought is that they probably shouldn't.

And that if you're making a combat check, and using Melee (and your character card says that your Melee is Strength +2), then your check is considered a combat check, a Melee check, and a Strength check, and no other kind of check. If you're making an Acrobatics check, and your character card says that Acrobatics is Dexterity +2, you're making an Acrobatics check and a Dexterity check, and no other kind of check.

We have updated the FAQ here and here.


Great stuff! For the second one you might want to add a note (probably in the FAQ bit, not the resolution bit) along the lines of:

Note that if your character does not have the Perception skill listed on their character card then their character's Perception is NOT based on Dexterity and is not boosted by cards that help Dexterity.
