The reading of the oracle will depend on the type of situation that has originated it for Yes/No questions or exploration in Wilderness, we use Matt Kay’s Oracle table: If a situation is favourable, an automatic success can be added, and if it is unfavourable, an automatic bane. Successes and banes cancel each other out. When an Oracle reading is to be performed, roll 6 six-sided dice. If the Location has to be abandoned for any reason, the Advance Pool is halved, but you can keep the remaining value for future explorations.If the Risk Pool is reduced to zero dice, the Risk for the location materialises immediately.In case of success, you find the target you were looking for in that room.If the roll fails and there are unmatched banes, the remaining banes will reduce the Advance Pool by one die each.When narratively significant, Check Progress (Roll the dice from the Progress Pool and read as a Yes/No Oracle):.Successes and banes cancel each other out.Three banes: Waste! Roll for a Consumable (Water, Torches, … ).One success: add a die of to the Advance Pool.having two successes also implies what happens with one success): Oracle reading (levels accumulate, e.g.If the roll is a success, nothing additional to the Oracle reading occurs.Failing the Lead the Way roll reduces the size of the Risk Pool by one die.In addition to considering whether or not there is a success, the roll must always be read as an Oracle. The character acting as a Guide in this location rolls Lead the Way.If not lit, roll for Torches to see if they are consumed.If you have not been to the location before:.24 turns in a Quarter of a day) if the location is considered large or if there have been encounters, more turns can be spent as you see fit. It takes one turn to explore a location (there are approx.Assign size to the Risk pool by 1/4 of the locations that compose it.Choose the Risk to be taken when exploring the Site.Determine the objective you are searching for.
The mechanics work, are fun, create tension and can be used in a solitaire, cooperative or directed game.īelow we list the steps, and then we will go into detail on some concepts. They fit pretty well with the sensations we like to experience while playing. Over the course of several games, a mechanic that is a bit of an amalgam of different sources was refined and adjusted. We had to stop the game and start thinking about more suitable rules to examine this kind of place. We thought that using the mechanics of Wilderness exploration for a Site was not very appropriate.
