Quick answer
The Huntress and Stableman promo cards add two new characters to Raiders of Scythia, each with unique abilities that can be swapped into your crew for fresh strategies.
Why add these promos to your game
These two promo cards are optional additions that don't change the core rules but offer new tactical choices. The Huntress provides a combat advantage, while the Stableman focuses on resource management.
Because promos are not required for play, you can introduce them one at a time or together. This makes them ideal for players who want to vary their crew without investing in a full expansion.
What you get in the pack
The promo set includes two Huntress cards (54 x 86mm) and two Stableman cards (54 x 86mm). Having duplicates of each allows for consistent use across multiple games or for players who prefer having a backup.
How to use the Huntress and Stableman promo cards
- 1. Add the cards to your crew pool: Before starting a game of Raiders of Scythia, shuffle the Huntress and Stableman cards into the deck of available crew members. They become draftable options just like any other character. Common mistake: Forgetting to shuffle them in before the draft. Set them aside with the rest of the crew deck during setup.
- 2. Draft a character as normal: During the game, when you recruit a new crew member, you may choose the Huntress or Stableman if they appear. Their abilities activate immediately upon recruitment. Checkpoint: Read the card text aloud to all players so everyone knows the new ability in play.
- 3. Use the Huntress ability in combat: The Huntress typically provides a bonus during combat encounters. When you send her on a raid, apply her effect as described on the card—often an extra die or a reroll. Common mistake: Applying the bonus to a non-combat action. The Huntress only helps in fights, not during resource gathering.
- 4. Use the Stableman ability for resources: The Stableman usually offers a resource benefit, such as gaining an extra supply or reducing the cost of a future action. Trigger his ability when the card specifies, often at the start of a turn or after a raid. Checkpoint: Place a token on the Stableman card to remind you when his ability is available each round.
- 5. Remove promos if you prefer the base game: If you find the promos unbalancing or just want a classic experience, simply remove them from the crew deck before your next game. No rules are broken by leaving them out. Common mistake: Thinking promos must always be used. They are entirely optional—use them only when you want variety.
