Hello all, I downloaded Pfr_Fate’s Hunting the Night a while back and have enjoyed a few scenarios v Headless Rider, Vampire, Bog Fiend, Banshee, Necromancer and Werewolf with various levels of success and failure with mainly my wife, but on occasion with my daughter and her fiancé and our family friend, who can turn his mind to tactics at a level far superior to me! I find it adds that little bit of atmosphere to the game, not that it lacks any, and can be the difference between a ravaging defeat and a slim victory - my dice rolling generally hovers on average or below!
I really enjoyed the Vampire game, but was a little unsure how to handle the Catch it at Rest tactic, and felt I had to formulate my own addition by allowing the hero with the wooden stake one attack with any weapons held unopposed by the Mist defence (he is asleep!) and no strikeback. We did win, not rampantly I might add, but after our first use it appeared that rolling Combat plus wooden stake doubled, then defended by Mist, just had little or no effect and was soundly beaten by Fangy!
I am looking forward to getting the Fortune and Glory new releases in 9 weeks or so, the Temples and Treasures and the new band of baddies (I hate The Crimson Hand, and have a fear that this lot will be even harder to beat!), but just love this game so much!
Regards, Mark
