Thank you again to everyone for the support on all of my games so far, I’m excited that I finally get to
share this one. I hope you enjoy it, and please let me know if you have any suggestions, or find anything
unclear, broken, or out of balance. I want to keep doing this, so hopefully when I finish my next game,
some of you will check that out too. Have fun!

Board:

I recommend ​www.printplaygames.com​ for the board. You can order the


mounted boards in any size, and just upload the included image of the board and
size it to 20x20.

Cards:
I am by no means a professional, so you may find some imperfections, slight size differences in cards,
etc. For example, the backs of most of the cards are not the same shape or size as the fronts. I did this
on purpose, as it is nearly impossible to print the backs of the cards in a standard inkjet printer and have
them aligned perfectly. I’m even using a duplex printer now, and it still isn’t always perfect. So I made
sure there was a bit of room for error there if it was off by ½ cm or so, and you may need to trim off a bit
of the front border on the cards as I did, just keep that in mind as you are printing the cards.

Use whatever type of paper you like. I recommend either 65 or 110 lb. white or cream card stock, and I
laminated all of my cards as well, and cut them out individually with scissors to round off the edges and
make sure they were all relatively the same shape and size. I’ll also include a few recommendations for
websites to have the cards printed professionally if you prefer. This would save you a ton of headache,
trust me. Honestly, if you want really high quality prints, it is probably cheaper that way also, I probably
went through a few hundred dollars in ink cartridges alone creating my original copy of the game, and
I’ve added quite a few cards since then.

Character Tokens:
Sticker Pawns from The Game Crafter. They come in several colors.

Dice:
You will need 9 dice total. 3 for the movement dice, 6 for combat dice. Only 5 will usually be used for
combat, but in some cases a 6th is needed. I would recommend getting 2 different colors, to keep things
simple. I used red for movement and purple for combat, but they come in 24 colors, so pick whatever
you like. Cut out the dice faces and either glue them on or run them through a sticker maker if you have
one.

Experience:
To track experience, I used little plastic wheels with 6 wedges each, similar to Trivial Pursuit. They are
sometimes in short supply, but when I ordered mine, there were several colors of both the wheels and
wedges available. If you can’t find the pieces right away, any sort of little tokens will serve the same
purpose, as long as you have enough for each player to have up to 6 of them.

Here is an example of the wheels and wedges:

If they are out of stock and you need to use something else to track experience, you can find pretty
much anything at
www.meeplesource.com

or

www.boardsandbits.com

Really all you need for this is 6 small tokens for each player, or if you are using the large character mats,
there are spaces for XP, hearts, and health, and some printable markers included.

Clips:
Small plastic clips for each player to track their health on their character card.

They are $0.10 each, so just order about 8-10 of them, or you can even just use paperclips or something.

Hearts:
You will need a lot of these, but they are cheap too. If you think you will ever have 6 players, I would
recommend about 100-125 to make sure you have enough, but for most 3-4 player games, about 60-75
should cover it, depending on which characters you use. I used the wooden ones from
thegamecrafter.com, which are $.10 each.

Alternatively, if you are using the large character mats, you will just need one heart marker to slide up
and down.

Relics and Status Markers:


For the 5 relics, I printed out the images and glued them to 5 little black wooden discs, which you can
find here:

https://www.thegamecrafter.com/parts/disc-black

I included printable versions of the status effect markers, which you can use instead if you like, but I
used little wooden pieces for those as well:
