This expansion module plays by the Incidents module rules of the Tales from the Ruined City expansion; the Incidents text below is reproduced from the Tales from the Ruined City rulebook (its Incidents chapter only; the rest of that booklet is not included here).

Disclosure: the five Scenario sheets (one double-sided sheet per Scenario, with setup text, card and token lists, and the backs' charts and tracks) were not reachable in any source, so they are not transcribed. The Incidents chapter below refers to them and to the envelopes they unlock; setup for each Scenario must be taken from its sheet.

Incidents

Each day of this hellish siege is full of countless stories and personal drama. Yet there are tales that are so deeply moving, so important that they must be told no matter what.

This module is comprised of 5 completely new Scenarios and their accompanying game components. Each Scenario features 1 sheet, a set of cards and tokens used only with it and a closed envelope marked with a letter (from A to E).

The Scenarios allow you to enjoy shorter – albeit very intense and hard – games, introduce special rules as well as new elements and each of them tells a unique story. Below you can find a quick overview of each Scenario:

• Blood in the Snow: besides trying to survive, you must also investigate a near-murder case, casting suspicion on each other and your neighbors, with your bleeding friend standing at death's door.
• Refugees: a group of persecuted strangers enters the Shelter. Will you manage to keep them hidden from their enemies, at the same time cunningly using their presence to help you in ultimate survival?
• Epidemic: with thousands of corpses left unburied, a horrible disease starts ravaging Pogoren's populace. Staying alive becomes even harder and the only way is to obtain vaccines… by any means.
• Side By Side: what happens to good people when a war starts? What do you think would happen to your neighbors? Do you even know their names? Now, surviving becomes your common goal.
• You and Me: a Shakespearean romance among the ruins – Dina and Zoran are torn between their turbulent past and desperate presence, with the local safe area offering a chance to live a normal life.

All the information required to set up each Scenario-based game can be found on one side of the corresponding Scenario sheet. It also contains a list of all cards and special tokens required to play. Additionally, general rules for using Scenarios can be found in FAQ 905 in the Book of Scripts in the base game.

If a Scenario refers to a script, this script can be found in the Wartime Diary I, in the Incidents chapter under a proper heading.

Do not open any closed envelopes found inside the box until you are instructed to do so by a Scenario sheet (i.e. until you successfully complete a given Scenario).

Note: Each Scenario can be played on each side of the board, as well as with the use of any other game modules provided for This War Of Mine: The Board Game. However, choosing the advanced side of the board or certain modules may radically influence the gameplay and difficulty of a Scenario (e.g. the Farmers module in case of the Refugees Scenario). Therefore, it is recommended to play any Scenarios on the basic side of the board and without any modules (besides Emira).

Scenario Sheets

The five Scenario sheets are double-sided. Each sheet gives its own narrative, Setup and a list of the cards and tokens used. The Scenario sheet is the source for setup; general Scenario rules are in FAQ 905 of the base game's Book of Scripts.

Source note: the back sides of the Scenario sheets carry the charts and tracks that these Scenarios refer to (the Suspicions chart, the Cover and Condition tracks, the Blizzard track, the Neighbors' Needs tracks and the Visit the Neighbors table). They are not part of this 8-page booklet and are not reproduced here.

Blood in the Snow

What you see before you is almost beautiful. The world is covered in snow and there is only one exception – the red pool of frozen blood beneath your feet. As you look closer, you notice something glittering like diamonds in the snow. A knife? The blizzards of the last few days are something Pogoren has not seen for ages. The streets are empty, the fighting has calmed down. The city is even more of a dead shell than it has been lately. Everything is covered by a thick layer of snow. And it's still snowing. The visibility is often no more than a few meters. Even the snipers from across the river have left their stations. Instead of bullets now, it's the chill in the air cutting us down.

Yesterday though, something terrible happened. Luka, one of the four of us, was found behind our shelter, covered in blood. He had gone out to look for pieces of wood and found death instead. Almost. He's alive, but barely so – still has not woken up. There was a bloodied knife next to him. Our knife. Is one of us guilty? For so long we've lived in extreme conditions, but as mutual trust is beginning to dissipate, substituted by suspicions, it's becoming harder and harder to push through yet another day. We need to care for Luka and discover who tried to murder him, even if it was one of us. Maybe one of the neighbors saw something? Maybe they know something we do not? Luka might wake up and point to his attacker. We're watching others' behavior, over-analyzing each word, fish for hints and traces of evidence. Tonight somebody has brought back a long rope, in case we manage to find the attacker. When the time comes, when we are sure, we will need to capture and subdue the would-be murderer.

Setup changes

• Draw 1 OBJECTIVE card and place it on the Objectives space. Resolve it at the end of the game, while resolving script 1000 (Ceasefire), instead of resolving the Final Objective. If you do not manage to accomplish this Objective, you lose the game. Do not use any other OBJECTIVE cards when playing this Scenario. Remove them from the game.
• The NIGHT RAIDS and RESIDENTS decks should contain all of their cards. Do not remove any cards with a red corner.

Construct the Events deck

Before constructing the Events deck, find and set aside the HARSH WINTER card. Then place Event cards on the Events space face-down (without looking at their fronts) in the following order:

1. Shuffle 3 ENDING EVENT cards – this will be the bottom of the deck.
2. Randomly draw 3 EVENT cards and stack them on top of the deck.

Starting Cold: Place 4 COLD tokens on the Cold space. Additionally, place the HARSH WINTER card on the Cold space.

Draw 3 Characters: Take the Character cards, shuffle them and draw:

• the first BLACK-BORDERED card

Place the Character cards on the spaces on the back of this sheet. If new Characters join the group during the game, do not place their cards on these spaces. Place a MISERY LEVEL 2 token next to each Character. Place 1 SUSPICIONS token on the "0" space of each of 4 Suspicions tracks (3 tracks for the Characters and 1 for the Neighbors).

Starting Fittings: Find the SIMPLE HEATER and choose any 1 BASIC / ADVANCED FITTING card and place them on any empty Shelter spaces. Any advanced Fittings should be placed next to their prerequisite basic Fittings, according to the description on their backs.

Starting stuff: Place these on the Storage space:

• 2 WATER, 10 WOOD, 10 COMPONENTS,
• a KNIFE,
• any other TOKENS WORTH 20 or less

Scenario special cards:

• Place the WOUNDED LUKA card near the board and then place the CONDITION token on it on the Heavily Wounded level.
• Place the DAWN PHASE card on the Fate deck. You will need to resolve it at the beginning of each Dawn Phase, before drawing the Fate card.
• Shuffle 4 SPECIAL VISITORS cards into the Visitors deck.

Scenario special tokens: Place the ZIP-TIE token in the Storage. This token cannot be stolen, lost or traded in any way until the end of the game. The value of the token is 0. Finally, place the BLIZZARD token on the "3" space of the Blizzard track.

List of additional Blood in the Snow scenario items: BLIZZARD TOKEN; 4 SUSPICIONS TOKENS; CONDITION TOKEN; ZIP-TIE TOKEN; 4 SPECIAL VISITORS CARDS; DAWN PHASE CARD; WOUNDED LUKA CARD.

After finishing a game, please remember to find all the additional elements of the Scenario among the cards and tokens and pack them up separately, as they are used exclusively in this Scenario.

Blood in the Snow cards

• Dawn Phase card – Resolve this card at the beginning of each Dawn phase. If the Condition token is at the Heavily Wounded level, roll the Black die. Result = 8-10 – see Blood In The Snow script 2. If Wounded Luka was given Bandages: move the Condition token up by 1 and discard Bandages from Luka. If Wounded Luka was not given Bandages: move the Condition token down by 1. Make a roll on the Suspicions chart. Afterwards, shuffle this card back into the Visitors deck.
• Wounded Luka card – levels printed on the card: Heavily Wounded, Critical Condition, Dead. See Blood in the Snow script 1.
• Startling Revelation – A casual comment by one of our neighbors shed a completely different light on the whole story. Choose a Suspicions track with the lowest Suspicions level and raise its level by 2. Afterwards, shuffle this card back into the Visitors deck.
• Trust Issues – Who can we trust? Whenever the topic of the murder comes up in our house, everyone seems to avoid giving a direct answer. You may make a roll on the Suspicions chart and raise the Suspicions level on the proper Suspicions track by 2 (instead of 1). Afterwards, shuffle this card back into the Visitors deck.
• It All Falls Into Place – A neighbor gives us a hint during a conversation that turns out to be an essential piece to our puzzle. Raise the Suspicions level by 1 on 1 chosen Suspicions track. Afterwards, shuffle this card back into the Visitors deck.
• Is There Any Truth to the Gossip? – Who is responsible? Who had motive? After asking around the neighborhood, it turns out that nearly everyone could be under suspicion... Make 2 rolls on the Suspicions chart.

Refugees

When humanity is put to the test it easy to forget about those who are suffering even more than we are. A few remaining members of the minority have taken shelter under your roof. These people have lost all hope – don't let them lose the last bits of life they cling to.

There is a family living in our shelter's hidden cellar. Those people are hated by everyone, sought out by everyone as pests, subhuman, heretics. Blamed for everything wrong that happens to everyone else. They are made scapegoats only because of the tone their skin and their slightly different language, customs and preference for different clothing. They are people just like we are – we could find more differences between two random passersby than their folk and ours. And still, it's enough. When hatred and the burning desire for revenge are on the rise and there is no way to let go of them, when there are no answers to "who" or "why", any small reason is enough to direct all the anger at those who cannot fend for themselves.

These people cannot step outside even for a moment. They are prisoners whose escape would mean immediate and certain death. We are responsible for them now. Only we can gather food and medication for them. We need to care for not only our own survival, but theirs as well, or at the very least occupy them with something so that they can suffer their indignity in silence. Their lives are in our hands. Often enough, saving someone's life takes a truly huge toll. Few people would choose to pay it should they have a choice.

Epidemic

The streets are empty and deathly silent. The disease is far more scary than any human – not even the soldiers dare venture into the contamination zone. The chances of catching the disease are gravely high. For many days now there has been an epidemic in the city. Even the frost on the streets cannot stop the spread of the sickness and only weakens the bodies emaciated from hunger. The vaccines delivered to the city have run out long ago and the last remaining batches can only be purchased second hand for insane amounts of money. Whenever we meet anyone on the street, we first look at each other warily, watching for the symptoms of the disease. We treat those affected as plague carriers and not people in need. It's hard to help a fellow man when the price you would pay could be that high.

Epidemic cards

• Let's Avoid the Infected – Most people, upon seeing an infected person, keep their distance or even flash their weapons to drive the poor soul away. And what do we do? Talk with the infected or choose 1 Character present and raise their Misery by 1. If you talk with the infected, roll the Black die. Result = 1-3 – choose 1 Character present and raise their Illness by 1. Afterwards, shuffle this card back into the Epidemic deck.
• I Was Just Seeing Things... (two copies) – No one is here, only the wind. The epidemic has snuffed out most of the life in the city. It is a ghost town now. Remove this card from the game.
• The Infected! – The victims of the epidemic look more like ghosts than people. They clutch at hands and feet, begging for help. Like us, they know that there is no hope for them. We are finally able to get away from them, leaving their pleas and wails behind us. Choose 1 Character present and raise their Illness by 1. Afterwards, shuffle this card back into the Epidemic deck.
• Do Not Leave Me to Die... – Discard 1 Meds / Herbal Meds / Canned Food / Raw Food / Vegetable if you possess such a token (in the Findings Pile / the Storage), or roll the Black die and compare the result with the Empathy of each Character present. A result that is equal to or lower than a Character's Empathy = raise their Misery by 1. Afterwards, shuffle this card back into the Epidemic deck.

Side By Side

Before the war we used to see each other almost every day. We passed our neighbors while shopping or taking out garbage. From time to time we shared the newest gossip, lent salt to each other, helped take out old furniture… Those days we thought we understand each other and that each one of us is a significant part of the others' lives. We were sure that in the world which distances people, we'd managed to create a real community that would survive every possible turmoil. Now, everyone just looks through dirty windows, too scared of the looters to even open the door. Is it all that's left of our old, neighborhood friendship?

Side By Side cards

• Dawn Phase card – Resolve this card at the beginning of each Dawn phase. Raise the Needs of all Neighbors by 1. If Vladimir's card is placed with its red side face-up, move the Vladimir token to the Visit the Neighbors action space on the Scenario sheet.
• Vladimir – Vladimir unceasingly wanders around the neighborhood, angry like a wounded bear. For some reason he blames us for his misery. Now only vodka or blood can ease this man's torment... When resolving the Dawn phase card, place the Vladimir token on the action space Visit the Neighbors on the Scenario sheet. Before any Character performs this action, discard any tokens with a total value of 10 or more from the Storage. If you do, return the Vladimir token to Vladimir's card. Otherwise, enraged Vladimir attacks.
  • Vladimir's Attack: Place the Vladimir token in the first column of the Combat chart. Treat it as an Enemy token with a Prowess of 3, armed with a Hatchet.

• Andrei – If you wish to check how this Neighbor is doing, see Side by Side script 4 according to their current Needs level.
  • Needs: Discard any tokens with a total value of 10 or more from the Storage = lower Andrei's Needs by 1. Discard any 3 part tokens (Electrical Part, Mechanical Part, Weapon Part) from the Storage = lower Andrei's Needs by 1. You can fulfill these requirements more than once during one visit.
  • Aid: Place a new Fitting card in the Shelter for free (without performing any actions or discarding any required resources / tokens).
• Kovačević – If you wish to check how this Neighbor is doing, see Side by Side script 7 according to their current Needs level. During the Evening phase, assign 1 Character present in the Shelter to defend Kovacević's home (place their miniature on this Neighbor's card) and treat this Character as if they were placed on the Guard space. You can assign a Character this way even if no one visited Kovacević this day. During the Night Raid phase, the defending Character separately resolves Wounds from the Night Raids card drawn according to normal rules. This Character's rolls have no effect on Guarding the Shelter. Then, lower Kovacević's Needs by 1.

Source note: the Aid text for Durić and the Needs-level tables are not legible in the booklet text layer and are not reproduced here.

You and Me

Just you and me. Nothing else matters. The whole world may burn, but we must survive. Dina lost her parents a few months ago – they were killed in front of her. Her younger brother, Petar, was taken away to some unknown place. It would be easier to assume he's dead too, but Dina refuses to admit this. Almost every night she searches the city, fooling herself that Petar is still out there. It's like her own private ceremony, repeated more often than the prayers for her parents' peaceful rest.

Zoran doesn't know how his folks are doing. When the war started, he was with Dina. Despite the fact they'd known each other for just a few months, he was sure he found his soulmate, and that only death could do them part. Because of her, he never tried to make his way back to the countryside, to his family. These days he has doubts if it was the right decision, but there is no turning back now.

They both live day after day, sharing each moment – happy or sad, each loaf of stale bread and food leftovers and every musty drop of water from their leaking tap. Will the feeling that connected them so strong be stifled by the horrors of war?

This card remains on the Findings Pile until the Departure option from the Closing Down the Zone card has been resolved. Other cards can be placed on the Findings Pile normally (they do not cause this card to be removed from the game). If you have just flipped this card – see Side by Side script 11.

Aid Zone cards (7 cards)

• Humanitarian Aid – Rumor has it that the news worldwide report about the situation here, in Pogoren. Everyone wants to help us! Some say people from other countries send money and offer charity! Choose 1 token from the following: 1 Meds, 1x 100% Alcohol, 1 Bandages, 1 Guitar. Then add it to the Findings Pile. After you resolve this card, remove it from the game.

• Package – We have waited for a really long time, but finally it's our turn! A compassionate woman shows us a tent full of food and medical supplies. It feels like a different world – even the soldiers guarding the place are smiling… Add 1 Canned Food to the Findings Pile. After you resolve this card, remove it from the game.

• Goons – After several hours of waiting we are really close to the tents. Suddenly, a group of local thugs arrives. They elbow people standing in the queue, taking their place. We, among others, are the unlucky ones. No food today… Distribute 1 Wound among the Characters present. After you resolve this card, remove it from the game.

• Long Queue – The queue seems to be endless today. Hundreds of people – just like us – hope for some aid from the outside world, but the supplies are limited. There isn't enough for everyone – we won't get anything here today. Distribute 1 Fatigue among the Characters present. After you resolve the Departure option, remove all Aid Zone cards from the game.

  Source note: the text layer places the footer line "After you resolve the Departure option, remove all Aid Zone cards from the game." after this card, while the Departure option belongs to the Closing Down the Zone card; the footer is transcribed in the position the text layer gives it.

• Closing Down the Zone – Tents are already packed and the last few people are getting into the trucks. In the end, all that remains is the empty square full of mud and trash. The convoy leaves the place, escorted by armored vehicles. If the space below the Aid Zone deck contains the Preparation for Closing Down the Zone card, resolve the Departure option (see below). Otherwise, draw an additional Aid Zone Card and shuffle the Closing Down the Zone card back into the deck.

Source note: the "Only You and Me" rule that New Friend and the sheet refer to is not printed in the booklet text layer and is not reproduced here.
