About game mastering and rest-ability

[katekeeper 0]

On question about game masters (imperial) campaign books readings.

Rebel icon tells what to tell to teh rebel players after sentece. Few time after rebel text and its rebel mark there is info about the game rounds.
Should I tell allso to teh rebel players how many raounds there are if its not told before this rebel mark in the campaign guide?
Like in "Aftermath" in the same bullet there is rebel players objective, then teh rebel mark and after the mark it says there is 6 rounds.

 

Secondly about rest-ability
Can heroes rest if they havent got any strains?

Because rest makes strains to go away and excess is taken from the damage. Can they recover from damage with rest still without have gotten any strains before?

 

Thank you!

You should read out loud every single thing under the Mission Briefing section including the round limit.

Heroes can rest without strain and just recover health.

*IF* the mission briefing says what the round limit is, then you tell them the round limit. There are certain missions that have progression points instead of round limits, they will be listed in the mission briefing section.

 

Most, if not all, of the missions that have a hard round limit will state this in the mission briefing.

 

Basically, just make sure you are reading EVERYTHING under the Mission Briefing section and you'll be fine.

 

Rest: Yes, a hero can rest with zero strain, she recovers wounds instead. Heroes can also spend both of their actions during their activation resting.

That Rebel emblem has nothing to do with the text that you read. That indicates the Rebel victory condition.
