Replacement Tiles

These tiles replace the following tiles in the game: Conan = Champion; Kull = Wizard; Agnes = Ranger; Solomon Kane = Priest.

Incorporating the Tiles

There are two ways to incorporate these tiles into the rules. Both players should agree which rule they'll use before the start of play.

  1. Players randomly determine who will choose first. The first player selects one of the four tiles from this expansion pack. The second player selects the next tile, then the first player selects the next tile and finally the second player selects the last tile. Both players remove the tiles corresponding to the tiles they've chosen (as noted above), place the new tiles in their bags and the game proceeds as normal.

  2. For a more challenging game, players lay the four tiles from this expansion pack on the side of the board, then start a standard game. Whenever a player pulls one of the four tiles noted above, they can choose at that moment to replace the drawn tile with the appropriate tile from this expansion pack. If the player decides not to replace the tile, he cannot replace the tile at any future time. Yes, this means a single player could have all four tiles on their side.

Tile Movement Grids

Each tile has a movement grid on each side. The square in the centre of the grid (marked P below) is the tile's own square. The other squares show the movement icons printed on the grid. The grids are listed as printed on the sheet, left side first and right side second.

Key used in the grids below:

  • ● solid dot
  • ○ hollow circle
  • ✡ hollow six-pointed star
  • ▲ solid triangle
  • / square split diagonally (half-shaded)
  • P the tile's own square
  • . empty square
