The Allies

[Old Dwarf]

I've been looking over the New AToE Allies
Supplement & find the Cards are well worth
the cost.I'll try to give a brief summary of them,
as go through them.

Two interesting ones are Carla,The Blacksmith's
Wife & Entourage.

Carla-lets you pay 1 Inv.less to buy Town Items inc.
the new Ally Item Cards.It is also noted this does
not apply to Monastery Item Cards purchased at the
Monastery on the Echo Lake expansiom Board from SWTHC

Entourage-could be a big boost for Hero's.It allows
you to carry up to 2 extra Ally Cards from any location
including the new Town Item Ally Item Cards.This is
in ADDITION to the Hero's normal carrying limit of 1
card from each Corner Location & up to 3 Town Item
Cards and there are 2 cards.,If I do my math right
that could be 10 allies total if you had both cards.

The New Ally Cards are :

Milita Soldier x2-cost 7 gives =1 Combat & 1 wound.He will
remain with the Hero unless you roll a 6 on a d6 roll after
assigning a wound to him.

Capt.of The Guard-cost 8 gives +1 Combat Text-can didcard ANY Soldier
Ally to cancel a Mystery Card or to prevent ALL wounds done to
you from one source

Carla-Windmill Card-gives +1 Cunning & see above for text

Ben-Olde Woods Card-gives +2 Combat(also a Soldier card)

The Scarlet Shadow-Abandoned Keep Card-gives +1 Cunning & +1 Combat

Delanti--The Manor Card-gives +1 Spirit(also gives game 1st Black character)

2 Mystery Cards

Domination-player who draws must immediately choose any Ally Card
inc unsold Allies from Town Items,to join Villian where it functions
as an Evil Elder.

Ancient Evil-Remains in play-gives Villain +1 Combat & 1 Wound & gains
Keyword Ancient.

2 Event Cards-Entourage x2-see above for text

2 Minion Cards

Night Terror-The Manor Card-Fight 3,Wounds 2-If not defeated on 1st Fight Round
The Terror steals 1 of your Ally Cards(your choice to discard)& disapperas.If
Hero defeats get +4 Inv.

Shackled Spirit-Abandoned Keep Card-Fight 4,Wounds 4.Have to use Spirit
to combat.You can discard any Ally to auto defeat.Gain +6 Inv by defeating.

1 Item Card-Windmill Card-draw a random Location for Key.While at that
Location you may discard the Key as an action & gain d6 Inv.OR
Discard Key anywhere to gain +3 Cunning for the rest of the turn or showdown Fight Round.

2 Investigation Cards

Feeding Ground-Olde Woods Card-Make Cunning Check at +5 & gain +2 Inv.
If fail take d6 Wounds or lose 1 Ally.(really creepy art work)

Puzzle of Chains-Windmill Card-Make a Cunning check at +6.If successful
gain +5 Inv.Fail lose 1 Ally or Draw 2 Mystery Cards.

Interesting yes, but to help improve your Math... heh. Isabella can carry one extra Ally from any location, and if you have Jack the Servent boy you can carry an additional Ally from any location. Then add in Magistrate's Mandate and Party Invitations that let you carry an extra card from locations. So now you can have 16 Allies?! lol. You can have a Mob!

thanks for the info OD.

Oh I forgot to ask OD. Did the Allies pack come with tokens to represent the new Allies?!?!

Alas No

Just realized that the other Ally Cards have a counter,maybe these Allies
will be picked up in SWTHC.

Thanks for the sneak peak Old Dwarf! Maybe Flying Frog will just give us a printable token sheet off the site for the allies. Or maybe one of us who are good at that sort of thing can make a set for download off the site here.

I went ahead and tossed some tokens together and put them up in the Gallery. I hope you can use them!
