Being new to Arkham Horror, I thought it best to ask a few rule clarifications on some issues I came up with while playing. If these questions are answered in other posts, my apologies; didn't really find anything doing a search.
Anyways, here are my questions:
1. In the vanilla Arkham Horror (revised print), Page 24 states:
"Terror Level: 10 ---> Arkham is overrun (no monster limit and add one doom token)"
For the adding of one doom token, do you add one when the track actually lands on 10, or only when the Terror Track extends BEYOND the 10? Previous pages mention the latter, but nothing about the former.
2. In Dunwhich Expansion, Tasks/Missions are clarified on page 5, where 2 different triggering conditions (if you can call them that) are stated for Tasks:
In the sidebar box: "Had Jim been working on a Task instead of a Mission, he would not have needed to make a sacrifice at each location. Instead, merely being present in the location during the Upkeep Phase would have sufficed."
Under the Paragraph describing Tasks/Missions: "For Tasks, merely spending an Arkham Encounter Phase in the listed area is enough to complete each step."
These 2 say Tasks may be rewarded at 2 different Phases. Can I collect my Task before I encounter, immediately after, or on my next turn during Upkeep?
Thanks again for the help!
