    It's confusing because at the story check part, they specificly mention "survival check and basic check" like they are different things

    All survival checks are basic, but not all basic checks are survival

    Basic means white dice only and one roll for whole company (unless stated otherwise), and only bonuses that specifically say for “basic” apply

    Empowered tokens can only be used with 'Might check' during story.

    Had it been stated by someone official that you can’t use empowered tokens in a story combat check? Because the wording here says you can.

    The wording on using combat tokens in a story combat check is a touch sloppy, because it says you can use them all, see appendix. But then the specific entries in the appendix limit their use and says that during story combat you can only use redraw and empower. It’s clear, it’s just not concise. The entry for story combat should say you can use redraw and empower, see appendix for details if they wanted to be more concise. It’s my one real complaint with the rules writing, they make you run around the books to piece together things instead of being concise in each section. See timing on taking things in and out of the backpack for another example 😉

    You can use empower and reroll tokens on might checks and Round of Combat checks, but not other types of checks

    Be careful doing so, if you fail those checks you don't get your tokens back.

    Who can contribute redraw tokens during a basic skill story check that is a one for group type? Just the person rolling, or everyone?

    I play that anyone can contribute redraw tokens during the story for a group check. The rulebook isn't explicit but I believe this is what is intended and is in the spirit of the text.

    Same. Would be great to know the official answer though

    My groups plays the same way, but I'm talking with Jamie about this and seeing if we can clarify this in the updated rules. I'll let you know his thoughts on the topic when he wakes up and responds.

    He taught me how to play, so I think you're doing it right, but it would be interesting to see how he wants to update things.

    At some point of the story I am asked if i succeded or fail a round of combat, but if only part of the Company fail what should I chose?

    Failed. Send me a message about the specific spot you're referring to and I'll verify if this is a bug that needs to be fixed.

    Anyone in the party can use reroll tokens when it is PERFORM A CHECK. If it is ALL OATHSWORN PERFORM A CHECK then only the player can spend rerolls on their own check. This will be clarified in the updated rules.

    Thanks for checking! I would have helped, but since only you were checking we assumed that wasn’t allowed 😄

    No. What situation is this referring to? Something like caged?

    Well, if you take the time to set it up all of the different actions to make it work then you get to use it 😉

    The same is true of using Fire tiles

    how does water tile interact with KB?

    I don't think this is outlined in the current rules. My group plays it that if they cannot do the 2 movement needed then they don't move onto it, but this is a grey area right now
