Red Dragon Inn Boxed Card Game

Product Information

Chieftain’s Ice Beer is a right of passage for men and women of the northern barbarian kingdom. Legend tells that the Chieftains of old would meet over a fresh batch of Ice Beer, challenging one another to a drinking contest. The young Chief Killian, as the story goes, not only bested all challengers, but never felt the ill effects of the brew on the morning after. Killian would later become the Chief of Chiefs, and his clan’s recipe for Ice Beer became the standard among the tribes. Brewed by fermenting steppe vegetables and then allowing the water content to freeze off, this “beer” is more of a distilled spirit. The remaining liquor is then mixed with various spices, sampled, and diluted with water again to create a refreshing yet full-bodied beverage. Boys and girls among the barbarian tribes drink this brew to prove their vigor.

The Wench thinks you should stop playing with the drinks" cannot be used to Negate a card that affects a Drink Event Card.

Game Play

Example: Wizgilleplays "Hey! Let's test out my new drink creation device!" She reveals the Gear Card "Too much steam!" and chooses Kaylin and Phrenk to each loses 1 Fortitude. Kaylin plays "*Poof!*" to Ignore the Fortitude loss. Wizgille may still give one or both extra Drinks to Kaylin.

Minimum and Maximum Fortitude, Alcohol Content, Gold”: in the RDI 3 rules, this example was wrong! “You’re looking a little green. Drink this.” makes the target lose 3 AC and pay Phrenk 2 Gold. Relevant Sometimes and Anytime Cards may be played in any Phase of a turn, either before or after the special action for that Phase. If a Drink's total Alcohol Content is less than 0 (such as "We're cutting you off!"), it counts as a 0 Alcohol Content Drink in a Drinking Contest. The Drink will still affect your Alcohol Content as normal. You may play one Action Card. To play an Action Card, read the title of the card out loud, give other players a chance to respond to the card, then follow any instructions on the card and discard it to the Discard space on your Player Mat. Your Fortitude and Alcohol Content can never go below 0 or above 20. Your Gold can never go below 0, but it has no maximum. If the Inn runs out of Gold Pieces, use some other markers as a substitute.Example: Gerki reveals Wine and has “Dump it on the floor”, as before. Gerki has the first chance to respond and chooses not to play anything. This time, Dimli and the other players also choose not to play anything. Since no player has a response, Gerki’s Wine resolves. At this point, it is too late for Gerki to choose to dump the Drink.

Getting Started”: now specifies that 2-player games start with 8 Gold each rather than 10. With 10 Gold, we found that it was nearly impossible, even for a strong money-stealing character, to win on Gold. Changing the starting Gold to 8 makes for many more interesting decisions in 2-player games.If your Alcohol Content is ever greater than or equal to your Fortitude, you fall unconscious and the Wench drags you up to your room to sleep it off. Your Gold is divided between the Inn and any players still in the game. The Wench thinks you should stop playing with the drinks" cannot be used to Negate a card that buys you Drinks, forces you to drink, or directly increases your Alcohol Content. Timing”: we made two changes here. First, we removed the concept of the “Negate window”. In the revised rules that came out with the release of RDI 3, we decided to structure responses to cards by saying that first you have a chance to Negate the card, then you have a chance to do anything else to it. After a bunch more playtesting, we’ve decided that we don’t like this change, so we removed it. Some cards force a player to leave a Round of Gambling. When a player is forced out of the Round, each player, including the one being forced out, has a chance to respond (for example, with "Oh, I guess the Wench thought that was her tip.. ", "My holy blade detects lies!", or some other anti-cheat card).
