Winds of the North Update & Call for Feedback

As expected after re-building the PDF, there were some errors resulting from the rebuild. There are a couple of other things to correct or update. Overall, nothing was a major problem, but I wanted to get an update out and also put out the call for feedback.

Updates & Corrections

  • Your starting Field (6 crop squares) should be circled. The pre-printed circle got lost in the rebuild!
  • Clarification on Plant Crops: You only use 1 Seed Item per Activity (but it may result in multiple planted crops).
  • Sickness: When your character or Hirðmenn becomes Sick, reduce their current HP by 1 (not maximum).
  • During End of Month, you should also reset any Monthly abilities on your Hirðmenn (such as the companion).
  • Skills & Bonuses: Ignore the Initiative spaces for Survival and Seamanship. Initiative has changed and these should no longer be there.
  • Raid: When instructed to roll for Weather, it should be the Late Summer Weather (p. 19).
  • Early Winter: Ignore the Plant Crops Activity in the list, it shouldn’t be there.
  • Some Item values are incorrect or out-of-date. The simplest one to correct is that Wolf Cloak and Wool Cloak have swapped values in some places. Wolf Cloak should be 27s and Wool Cloak should be 14s.
  • End of Month: In the end breadcrumbs, “Begin a Late Winter Month” should point you “below” to Late Winter Months, not point to page 21.

Call for Feedback

The new version has been out for a couple of weeks, and I’ve gotten a little bit of great feedback so far, but hopefully, more of you are making it through your first in-game year. I’d love to hear from you!
