Rules Question: Weapons & Weapon Proficiency


Rules Questions and Gameplay Discussion


Hey fellow adventurers!

I have a question on weapon cards. I apologize that I do not have the cards in front of me. But the rules of these certain weapon cards will say something like this (not exactly, I'm sure):

"Reveal this card to add 1d8 to your combat check. You may discard this card to add an additional die to the check.

If you are not proficient in weapons the difficulty of this check increases by 4"

I'm thinking that the check with the increased difficulty is the combat check - each time you use it. Or, part of me is thinking that the check to acquire the card is increased by 4?

Can anyone confirm?

Thanks!


You are correct - it refers to the combat check for which you reveal the weapon. Notice that the difficulty increase is always in the same paragraph as the power that tells you what to do to use the card for your combat check.

Thanks! I was afraid of that... I am currently playing the theif but I love all those weapons!

And thanks for the clue on the syntax and grouping of rules to each paragraph. This is why I kind of thought the rule pertaining to the increased check may have been associated to every combat check. I always hated algebra!
