AToAH/Varient

[Old Dwarf]

The Dunwich Dryad

Well I'm still working on this project,the main
problems are getting the Mythos Beings stats converted
into AToE stats (both games use a different combat system)
& getting the Minion Tables correct.

So I've decided to go ahead & convert the AToE Game
mechanics to The Dunwich Horror Board to see how
smooth that goes.I'm setting up a test game with the Dryad
as the Villian.

Note this is about 85% straight AToE with just the DH Board
& Location Cards used & modified to AToE checks
& skills.

The following are preliminary rules to convert the Arkham
Horror supplement The Dunwich Horror(DH) into a A Touch
of Evil( AToE) Supplement:

The following are preliminary rules to convert the Arkham
Horror supplement The Dunwich Horror(DH) into a A Touch
of Evil( AToE) Supplement:

1.AToE game sequence & mechanics are used but
the playing Board is the Dunwich Horror Board.

2.The 5 Dunwich ally cards are used as as allies
but their abilities are converted to AToE (see below)

3.The AToE Location Cards are NOT used ,instead use
the Dunwich Horror Location Cards with there results
converted to AToE (see below)

Dunwich Horror Map conversion to AToE:

1.The arrows are road locations

2.The Rectangle areas are Named areas they correspond to
AToE Locations as follows:

-Village Commons=Town Hall
-Blasted Heath=Fields
-Back Woods=Crossroads
-Sentinel Hill=Marsh

(when you stop on these areas treat exactly as the
AToE Game Board)

3.Special Locations replace the AToE Corner Areas &
use the DH Location Cards as follows:

-Darke's Carnival=pay1 Inv.& make a Cunning Check
if successful get 3 Inv.tokens

-Dunwich Village=pay 4 Inv.tokens & make a Cunning
Check if successful get 1 Unique item fail pick 1 common item
(see below for unique/common items)

-Harney Jones' Shack=spend 1 Inv.token remove all wounds
OR gain +1 Spirit point.Note per DH Card Text this location
can be closed-if so No Inv.or Encounters may be undertaken
but Inv.can travel through.If stopped on roll d6= 1-2
draw Mystery Card,3-6 No Enc.

-Devils Hopyard=spend 1 Honor & gain 3 Inv.tokens
(must have extra Honor Token or NA)

Note#1 on the above Special Locations first roll d6 on 3+ you
encounter nothing ,on a roll of 1or 2 you encounter the card text
for that location.

Note# 2 on all other Dunwich Locations you encounter the
Card Text


4.Vortex Spaces-Any Minion in an Area adjacent to a road
that goes to a vortex & is called upon to move roll d6:

Even=miniom moves toward Village Common

Odd=Minion goes into vortex-remove from board & advance
Shadow Tract by 1.(Mythos Villain is drawing powers
unto itself)

DH and AToE Skill equivalents:

Lore=Spirit
Will=Honor
Fight=Combat
Sneak=Cunning
Focus=increases any skill by +1
Luck=reroll or force any minion to reroll 1 die
Sanity=effects Spirit

DH to AToE Skill Checks equivalents:

Speed-roll 1 d6 to get speed to check against then roll d6
for Hero if = or over 1st die roll Hero successful.
Note use modifiers as per Card Text

Luck-use Cunning Check

Sanity-use Spirit Check

Lore=use Spirit Check

(use any modifiers the card Text may call for,results
are as card text)

Other Conversions:

-When a Gate,Dunwich Horror or Doom Track called for
advance the Shadow track that many spaces.

-When Monster appears its a 1 round attack by the Villain,
Inv. gets 1 Inv token per hit made on villain


-Fight means roll on Minion Chart & reroll any Event.

-$ ,Spells or clues =Inv. Tokens.Regardless of # stated
3 is the Maximum you can gain or loose.

-Make text 18th/19th Century Friendly
(cars become Horses)

-Any modifiers on checks given in the Card Text are handled as follows:

negative (-) Modifiers reduce the # of die the
Investigator/Hero rolls ,however if reduced to Zero die or less
1 die is still rolled but needs a 6 for success.

Positive (+) Modifiers allow Investigator/Hero to reroll # of
die per modifier.

-Party Invitation Event:Roll d6

1-2=Harney Jones Shack
3-4=Gardners Place
5-6=Whateley Farm
(Card does not remain in play)

-Any card text that directs Inv.to Location not on the
KP Board instead Roll on Random Location Table.
