Random questions (Collecting them all here)

By Saint7x, in General Discussion

Hey all,

Just had my 4th session of Eldritch Horro recently and a few random incidents came up that turned into questions that I'm now posting here (for you more experienced players to answer).

1) Let's say the Doom Token is still sitting on its initial starting position on the Doom Track (i.e. the number specified on the Ancient One's sheet during set-up). Then you pick up a card that says "Retreat doom by 1"... Are you allowed to retreat doom past its initial starting position?

2) An investigator you controlled has been defeated so you take all of his remaining possesions and set them aside on the Character Sheet. Then you select a new investigator and begin assigning Starting Possessions to her. You realize that one of the starting items you are entitled to have is still with the previously defeated investigator. What do you do? Does your new investigator just grab the starting item that she needs anyways?

3) An encounter card states "Take 2 spells from the spell deck." Does this imply that a player can look through the Spell deck and take what he wants? Or does this still imply drawing 2 spells randomly from the bottom of the deck?

Feel free to post your own random and/or miscellaneous questions that you've always wanted answers to.

1: You can retreat doom beyond the starting doom of your chosen Ancient One.

2: Any starting gear already taken is not available for the new investigator (there are a few house-rules on these forums to amend that if you wish).

3: You take 2 random spells from the bottom of the deck. Remember that you can only have one of each spell. If you draw 2 spells of the same, draw another and discard the 1st.

Correct me if I'm wrong anyone.

That's right.

Thanks!
