In depth success token placement

Recommended Posts

On page ten, on unchallenged stories, it says that if the active player may place an additional success token on a story for an unchallenged story. Is that an additional one on top of the one won from being successful at the story? Ex. Active player commits 3 character to all three stories, opposed player only has one character to commit. Do the two stories that are unopposed get 2 for the wins, or just one from the success.  Ex 2, if the icon struggle results in the opposed player's cards to be removed from the story (Such as terror or combat) or result in skill 0, does the active player win one token and get the unchallenged success token as well?

Also, if you are unchallenged, does that just mean that you get to use the special events for winning icon struggles? Like untapping the card on an arcane win?

Yes, if you have at least 1 skill on your side, and your opponent has 0 total skill on their side, and it's your turn, you'll get an additional succes token, on top of any other.

Yes, you get to use the effects. In case of Terror and Combat struggles, it won't do much good, but Arcane and Investigation still work.

 You do still have to have a positive score for either Investigation or Arcane icon struggles, otherwise it is a tie of zero to zero and not a win for that icon.

 

Example, you have a Miskatonic character with 1 skill, 1 investigation, 1 arcane. For whatever reason, you opponent(s) do not commit to the story that your character is commited to (perhaps all of the other characters are exhausted).

Terror struggle, nothing happens because it is a zero to zero tie.

Combat struggle, nothing happens because it is a zero to zero tie.

Arcane struggle, your character wins, one to zero. You get to ready the character.

Investigation struggle, your character wins, one to zero. You place a success token on this story.

Skill struggle, your character wins, one to zero. you place a success token on this story.

Unopposed story, you place a success token on this story, winning the story. You may choose to activate the story's effect (or not).
