Hello and a silly question

Link to this post 10 Nov 11

Hello all ; glad to meet you.

To the creators : thanks and congratulations for your game

I have one silly question (well I guess I'll have more than one but for now I only have one)
Quoting the rulebook I downloaded :

When playing a basic game or the first game in a campaign, players may not purchase close combat weapons, ranged weapons or armors; instead, they must play with the characters as they appear in the profile in order to avoid unbalancing the game. Later, some characters are allowed to purchase other equipment options. For example, the Barnaboti from the Patricians faction may substitute their hand weapon for a pistol for an extra 10 points or for a sword for an extra 5 points.

So, still quoting the rulebook :
Any model in your squad with the Soldier descriptor may substitute the sword for a halberd with no additional cost. Any model in your squad with the Soldier Descriptor may substitute the sword for a musket with bayonet paying an extra 15 points in the model’s cost

Does that mean I can't have a soldier with musket if it's a basic game or did I misunderstood ? (English being a foreign language for me, I wouldn't be surprised to have misunderstood :D)

Hi Njall, welcome to Carnevale!
What that means is that, unless it is stated in the character description page, if you want to buy extra equipment for your models you'll have to do that in a campaign game. In the case of the Soldiers, since it specifically allowed in their character sheet, they can change one piece of equipment for another for the stated price.
Let us know if that makes sense now ;)

Thank you.

So, just to be sure :
1st game of a campaign : I can have a Noble with sword and pistol (55+10 SP)
2nd game of a campaign : I can buy and equip my Noble with a musket if I want (and if I have enough SP) (just an example ;) )

Correct ?

That's my status too and it seems it will be a long wait... maybe until february or march. I hope it will be sooner.

Waiting for Patrician's news will be worth. I can assure it :D
