He was down to 1 die with 4 HP

@Shadowborne Games Group 3: 3/3/2/2 Dread Company Hardcore (Penitent/Avi/Priest/Cur). Combat time: 2H 28M

Few injuries there Tonzin :).

I managed to take first round yesterday. I can see it will be a great ride to get through. 😄

Thankfully, only a net 1 injury. I've been maxing our curatives and took True Grit to help ensure I have higher odds of pulling them when these situations happen.

A wise choice

We decided to take down first the leader and then the 2 berserkers, had to plan in advance for when berserkers would drag someone with them so everyone was in kinda range for interrupts which helped a lot

what a brave group

uh...but ye...i also think their ability to hit harder while you chop them is pretty cool... first they seem weak, then they get quite terrifying before you hit them often enough that their power goes down again...

That's why i try to get all at low health before killing them off.

And be sure they don't all mob focus on the same target.

How to play Chain Hook if both berserkers are adjacent to the same Oathsworn?

I found the answer on bgg forum

Mind posting it here so others can quickly reference it?

Wouldn't you activate 1 Berserker who then moves away and pulls the target and then the 2nd Berserker would activate?

Answer from @Shadowborne Games on BGG forum: You perform each step of the card sequentially. So first you move the Berserkers to the closest Oathsworn moving the Berserker who is closest to the target first thne the other. Then the Most northernmost Berserker will drag the witch away and the second berserker will not drag anyone away. However step 3 is all tribesmen Move 4 and attack which will then cause second Berserker to move again and will likely attack.

Oh good, it's a reply from Jamie. The order of actions taken can sometimes be fuzzy but when in doubt, just use the rule of North and West to solve your problems.

It was the move away part on the second step that was confusing.

Yeah, that's the significance of using N&W ruling. Helps prevent word bloat on the cards and rulebook for these types of things

The North and West rule does solve 99%. 🙂

will the 2nd Berserker still move away?

No, but he does move and attack

This is similar to if he wasn't close enough to reach a target.

Another thing that came up that I wasn't entirely sure about is: Can an enemy "move directly away" if they aren't adjacent?

Help me understand your scenario you're thinking of a bit more

I believe the Stage card said they all did Move 3 directly away from their target and one of them couldn't reach anyone. I wasn't sure if that Scar Tribe would even move away since it never reached its target

This is the stage card:

Right, the adjacency condition causes the 2nd Berserker to do nothing

I believe if it just said to Move 3 directly away then you would move them

The Chain Hook card, as you mentioned, has the adjacency condition for the Berserker's movement
