I’ll take all three wounds
I’ve got the card to heal d6 wounds from 1 player
What’s everyone’s situation?
I can ignore two wounds by paying my two Investigations.
It’s just one step. I vote we let it go this time. If we keep getting KO’d from wounds, or Isabella keeps spending Investigation to avoid them, we aren’t going to get anywhere.

If it goes down, it does give the Villian 2 extra Wounds for the Showdown - when you get there - and does mean that Lady Hanbrook leaves Isabella and goes back to Town, although someone can pay 4 Investigation to pick her up in future.

Happy to let it proceed then.

Thoughts, @RogerBW and @Captbnut on @COMaestro’s suggestion
I think you may be right @COMaestro, we need to build up investigation to Do The Thing.

Sounds sensible

Sounds like it’s unanimous then: the Shadow Track moves 1 step closer to Darkness, granting the Villain 2 extra Wounds and sending Lady Hanbrook back to town.
Now, the Mystery Card, which is…`.
- Murder! The Villain has struck again! Place 3 Investigation on the board at a random Location. Move the Shadow Track 1 step closer to Darkness.
The Random Location is the Fields.
Round 6 will begin shortly once I’ve updated the board and Thomas will be the First Player.

@gmwhite999 asked for a die roll:
Round 6 begins and here is the board at the start of the round.
All Heroes are back in play now, and here are your movement rolls for this round:
-
Thomas (@RossM) rolls
d6+2: 6 -
Heinrich (@Captbnut) rolls
d6: 3 -
Anne Marie (@COMaestro) rolls
d6: 2 -
Isabella (@RogerBW) rolls
d6: 5
Thomas to move - or linger - first!
Back to the keep please!
Thomas wanders back to familiar ground at the Abandoned Keep and there he finds …
- Ghosts in the Fog. Rolling in from the nearby marsh, a thick fog surrounds the keep. Cold apparitions begin to take shape, whispering dark promises for only a taste of your vitality. Make a Spirit 4+ Test and gain 2 Investigation for every 4+ rolled. For every roll of 1, take one Wound.
Thomas’ Spirit is 3 … unless Anne Marie (@COMaestro) wishes to play her card to help him …
Yes, I will play Intuitive Hunch to give a bonus to spirit.

Smells like team spirit!
Thomas’ Spirit test with 5 dice: 5d6: 2 + 1 + 4 + 4 + 5 = 16
Thomas sadly takes 1 Wound but gains 6 Investigation from his trials. @RossM Do you wish to take any more actions this round or save your Investigation?

Saving it. To confirm, to pick up investigation I need to roll against cunning?
Picking up Investigation from the board is a test against your choice of Cunning or Spirit, with each roll of 5+ gaining you 1 Investigation.
On to Heinrich (@Captbnut): where do you wish to move to with your 3 movement?

@COMaestro my plan for next turn is to head to the blacksmiths and buy the book of town history. Hopefully we can organise meeting somewhere so I can pass it to you.
I’d appreciate it. I was hoping to save up for it, then died!
