Advanced Abilities Cards
Just a few questions that came to mind.
1. Are the AA cards hero specific? 2. What about with the new characters from TP? 3. Since the experience system came out in TP...is the AA supplement obsolete now? 4. What are the requirements to get the AA for a hero? Could it be drawn from a pile if you choose versus the experience abilities from TP? |

RE: Advanced Abilities Cards
1) Yes there's a AA card for every Hero up to SotF. There's also 4 available for the Zombies too.
2) They don't have AA cards. 3) Acording to Jason C. Hill it's fully compatible. When I get in front of my PC I will find you the official answer. 4) In any Turn a Hero kills 1 or more Zombie(s). That Hero gets 1 point. When that Hero scores 3 points he/she gets their own AA. The Zombies get an AA any Turn they kill 1 or more Heroes. Remember, you can never get more than 1 point per Hero in one Turn. 4) (ii) I need to look this part up. |

RE: Advanced Abilities Cards
If I remember right the AA are specific to heroes (at least those that were around at the time of the expansion) whilst the Zombie ones are picked at random and are generic.
Same mechanic as TP - 1 wound inflicted = 1 Experience. Heroes cash in 3 experience for first AA, then 3 + 1 for the second, 3 + 2 for the third etc. I prefer the AA in TP to the AA suppliment, not sure if it is now obsolete but I guess sales will fall as TP matures in the market. |

RE: Advanced Abilities Cards
Yeah I'm a fan of the TP experience system but was wondering if these could be included as a choice for like your first upgrade since it would cost 3 same as experience upgrade

Can you re-post your answer to my question about how many Experience Tokens a Hero gains if he kills a Zombie in Ranged Combat and another in Close Combat in his turn? Thanks |

RE: Advanced Abilities Cards
Remember the 1 point per Turn only applies to AA. You are playing TP correctly. In TP you get 1 point per wound caused.

RE: Advanced Abilities Cards
Correct so if you were to kill a zombie hero instead of wounding him you would fill up all wound boxes and collect the appropriate 2-4 experience tokens if it currently had no wounds.

So you can only "cash in" Experience tokens once per turn, but actually gain Experience once per wound.

Good call! I hadn't realised that. |

RE: Advanced Abilities Cards
It seems this questions came up on BGG and the answer got lost in the "great crash" of server so I am reposting it.
This is a quote from Jason C. Hill on the advanced abilities and how they work in the Timber Peak/Blood in the Forest System. Note that a heroes upgrade is paid like normal depending on when they choose their respective advanced ability, 3 exp for 1st upgrade, 3exp+1 for 2nd, 3exp+2 for 3rd, etc. The zombies advanced ability upgrade is 5 exp since they are a little more powerful than the normal 3 exp upgrades.
