Crates

Crates

Why would anyone put frail wooden boxes packed with deadly weapons in a barge arena during a bout? Is that a trick question?

Structural Condition

Destructible

Used for Cover

Yes, until destroyed.

Activation

Player Activated

• Spend (3) AP to destroy a Crate. The helot must be in Standard Attack Positioning and retains its original position; the helot does not move forward into the now empty square.
• Once destroyed, the attacking helot’s owner rolls on the Crate Contents Table to determine the contents of the Crate.
• Execute the resulting instructions.
• If the item contained is a weapon, find the weapon card and place it in front of the player. The weapon is automatically equipped, and the helot status is changed to Armed State.
• A helot can choose to drop the weapon (0) AP at any time. The weapon is then lost in the muck of the arena floor forever. The weapon is unable to be retrieved by anyone, even the helot that dropped it. Remove the weapon card from the player.
