Hunt Events

From Kingdom Death Wiki
(Redirected from Hunt events)

A hunt event describes an encounter that the survivors face on their journey during the Hunt Phase. They can be disastrous, bizarre, or even beneficial. These events occur on a variety of hunt event cards, or direct players to roll on tables, or read specific story events.[1]

Hunt Event Cards[edit | hide | hide all]

Represented by the "Hunt Event Icon" icon. There are several types of hunt event cards; basic hunt event cards, monster hunt event cards, special hunt event cards, encounter hunt event cards, scout hunt event cards, and arc survivor hunt event cards.[2] During the Hunt Phase survivors take turns as the event revealer. The event revealer draws the top hunt event card in the survivor's current space, reads it aloud to the other players, and follows the rules on the card. When an event is complete, the card is archived and the next survivor becomes the event revealer. If no cards remain in the survivor's space, the survivors move on space towards the monster and the event revealer draws the top event card in the new space and follows the rules on the card.[3]

Hunt events are resolved one at a time, from top to bottom. Unless compelled to move by an event, the survivors must resolve all hunt events in their currently occupied space before moving. If there are no hunt event cards on a hunt board space when the survivors move into the space, the event revealer makes one roll on the hunt event table before the survivors can move to the next hunt board space (unless directed to skip spaces).[3]

Hunt Events[edit | hide]

Often hunt events will require players to roll on a table to determine the outcome of an event. Each event will specify who should roll (event revealer, random survivor, or survivors meeting certain criteria). If no survivor is specified, the event revealer rolls. The event revealer is also responsible for making any randomized choices (picking random survivors, gear, etc.). The event revealer can roll dice, names in a hat, or whatever they prefer. Some events will have requirements for survivors to participate. For instance, some events require survivors to have high levels of courage or understanding to participate in the event.[3]

Basic Hunt Event Cards[edit | hide]

Basic hunt event cards describe events survivors may encounter out in the darkness.

The 12 basic hunt event cards found in the Kingdom Death: Monster core game are all identical and direct the event revealer to roll on the hunt event table to determine what happens next, though several white box expansions have included additional cards that are added into the basic hunt event deck. The hunt event table lists 100 possible events the survivors may encounter. The event revealer rolls 1d100 to randomly determine the event. To roll 1d100, take two 2d10 and nominate one die to be tens and one die to be ones. Roll them together for a result between 1 and 100.[3]

Example: If the tens die result is a "3" and the ones die result is a "5", the event number is "35". If the tens die result is a "10" and the ones die result is a "10", the event number is "100". If the tens die result is a 10, and the ones die result is a "1", the event number is "01".
