Adding Kulu-Ya-Ku to your Campaign

Monster Hunter World: The Board Game - Kulu-Ya-Ku, known as the Kulu-Ya-Ku set, can be played with both Monster Hunter World: The Board Game - The Ancient Forest and Monster Hunter World: The Board Game - The Wildspire Waste, known as the Ancient Forest set and the Wildspire Waste set.

This gives hunters a unique new monster to hunt, and equipment to forge!

If including Kulu-Ya-Ku in your Ancient Forest set campaign or Wildspire Waste set campaign, follow the below steps in order:

  1. Add 5 days to your campaign timer.
  2. When you've completed your first quest, Great Jagras or Barroth, you may select the assigned quest for Kulu-Ya-Ku.
  3. Completing the assigned quest for Kulu-Ya-Ku allows you to select the investigation quests for Kulu-Ya-Ku.

Kulu-Ya-Ku Reward Table

Editor's note: the Kulu-Ya-Ku Reward Table is printed as a component sheet shown at thumbnail scale on the Game Components page (page 5). Its item column and the part-break icons are not legible at that size, so the rows below were aligned from the PDF's text layer and the icon glyphs are shown as [icon]. Check against the physical reward sheet before relying on the row assignments.

Part Break Rewards. Printed text: "Gain 1 in addition to Loot Table rolls if [icon] were broken during fight." (The same line is printed for several part icons; each variant also reads "Gain 1 in addition to Loot Table rolls if the [icon] was broken during fight.")

Crude Tools. Printed text: "After resolving a behaviour card, Kulu-Ya-Ku gains +2 [icon] on its [icon] and [icon] body parts until its next turn."

Behaviour note. Printed text: "Behaviours with [icon] have –1 [icon]."

Downtime Activities

In addition to selecting a new quest, campaign days may be spent performing downtime activities at the Astera basecamp.

Of the 25 days you have to complete the campaign (where each quest takes up 1 day), you may spend 1 day at a time performing downtime activities.

When you spend a campaign day on downtime, you may choose up to 3 activities to perform. Each activity is chosen as a group and may only be completed once per day. You all perform the activity once one has been chosen.

1. Visit the Resource Centre

Each player may roll two dice and check their result on the following table.

2d6 RollResource Gained
2Carbalite Ore
3Machalite Ore
4Dragonite Ore
5Fucium Ore
6Quality Bone
7Monster Bone Small
8Ancient Bone
9Dragonvein Crystal
10Boulder Bone
11Coral Crystal
12Firecell Stone

2. Visit the Provisions Stockpile

Each player may remove any 3 common ores, bones, or hides from their character sheets to receive any 1 common ore, bone, hide or potion in return.

3. Visit the Meowscular Chef

Select one elemental type. Each hunter gains +1 resistance to the selected elemental type for the duration of the next quest.

Each player takes a token of the selected elemental type and places it on their weapon card as a reminder.

4. Visit the Handler

As a group, select a single investigation or tempered investigation quest and play it again regardless of how many times the group has already attempted the quest. The selected quest must be played next.

For example, if a group has already attempted a total of four Great Jagras investigation quests and wish to attempt a fifth, they must do so by visiting the Handler. If the group were to fail this fifth quest they could attempt it again for a sixth time, again, by visiting the Handler.

5. Pet the Poogie

Pet the Poogie; some believe this brings you luck, others believe this is a myth.

Arena Quests (Alternative Play Mode)

The arena quest pages give, for each quest, a set of hunter loadouts (weapon, helm, mail, greaves) and a table by number of hunters for the potions granted and whether Palicos join. The manual splits each loadout list into two groups, each with its own weapon-icon header; the two groups are run together below in printed order, with the group split not marked.
