Played my first game, a few questions.

By Herrozerro, in Runewars

First of all, I love this game. It is totally worth it.

So to the questions:

1. Rally Support: If there is no neutral units starting on the city then the neutral unites feature of this car is worthless? I ask because none of the city tiles we used had any neutrals at all on them.

2. Hero reward Amulets: Can a hero have multiple rewards of this type and turn them both in at the same time?

One more question.

3. If a unit if a unit is routed and that side wins must it retreat? Example: defending routed units.

For cities, you go by the icon on the city itself. If it has a rectangle and the number 1 that means you can recruit 1 neutral rectangle unit there (a Hellhound). You may actually notice that none of the city areas have starting neutral units. They are all 1 resource and a city, and that's it.

You can have as many Timorran Shards on a hero as you can get, and there is no limit to how many you can turn in at once.

If a unit was routed before the battle started, it dies at the end of the battle. If a unit is routed during battle but not killed, then it may retreat with any other units that retreat. If a defending unit is routed but not killed and the defender loses, the routed unit must retreat. If an attacking unit is routed but not killed, and the attacker wins, then if the attacker has to retreat units, he MAY retreat the routed unit. That is, whether or not a unit is routed during combat has no bearing on whether or not that unit has to retreat.

I can't recall any city hex which actually gets nuetral units during game setup.

The Rally Support order lets you add nuetrals to a city you control. So they would be immediately friendly to you. Since you only get to chose 1 option per city with Rally Support. I usually choose to gain either tactics cards or influence. Depending on what each city is best at.

Heroes are restricted to 1 weapon & 1 armour. No other reward types are restricted.

Ah, I see. The bases are on the city tiles. Thanks!

I should point out, a Hero can CARRY as many weapons or armor as he wants. You can only use one weapon and one armor in any particular duel, but you could carry a whole slew of them, for different situations, if you wanted.
