The Story So Far …

Lone Wolf
18:
Dawn of the Dragons

[
2
] (
The Game Rules
) If you have completed any previous
Lone Wolf New Order
adventures, remember to choose an additional Grand Master Discipline and add +1 to your basic
COMBAT SKILL
and +2 to your basic
ENDURANCE
for each adventure you successfully completed (cf.
Grand Master Disciplines
).

[
3
] (
New Order Kai Grand Master Disciplines
) Given the rules for the previous
Lone Wolf
books, it seems odd that a Grand Master is only allowed to choose to be proficient in one of the few Weapons listed in the
Equipment section
. In view of the unprecedented nature of this rule, you might decide that it is acceptable to be proficient in any of the ten Weapons that the Kai typically train to use.

[
4
] (
New Order Kai Grand Master Disciplines
) The rules in the Collector's Editions state that the bonus for Grand Weaponmastery with Bow is 5. Certain sections direct the reader to use different bonuses when using a Bow, ranging from 3 to 5, if you have Grand Weaponmastery with Bow. This may be the author adjusting the Grand Weaponmastery bonus on a case-by-case basis (and therefore this bonus should be used instead of the standard bonus) or an error (and therefore all of these bonuses should be 5). It is up to you to decide, but it seems most reasonable to follow the first alternative, to replace the Grand Weaponmastery bonus with whatever bonus is mentioned in that section.

[
5
] (
New Order Kai Grand Master Disciplines
) Details about the Kai Weapon appear in the next section of the game rules.

[
6
] (
Equipment
) During the adventure, the story will assume that you possess a Bow when you may not. If it is important to you to avoid this story continuity problem, you should ensure that you obtain a Bow.

[
7
] (
Equipment
) If you have completed any of the previous
Lone Wolf New Order
adventures (Books 21+), you already possess a Kai Weapon.

[
8
] (
Equipment
) These bonuses are
not
cumulative.

[
9
] (
Equipment
) ‘Valiance’ is also effective against magical creatures.

[
10
] (
Levels of New Order Kai Grand Mastership
) It is unclear why a New Order Grand Master becomes a Supreme Master by mastering only 15 of the 16 Grand Master Disciplines. It is also unclear why New Order Grand Masters must master four extra Disciplines in order to receive the same improvements to their Disciplines as Lone Wolf did with fewer.

[
11
] (
Section 6
) If you do not possess a Bow, it seems unlikely that you will be able to make effective use of the Arrow of Atonement against the Autarch. You may decide that you have had a chance after acquiring the Arrow of Atonement to also find a Bow (mark the Bow on your Action Chart, discarding another Weapon if necessary), that you are still able to use the Arrow of Atonement without a Bow, or that not having a Bow leads to a failure to accomplish your mission. Use your best judgement.

[
12
] (
Section 71
) If your Kai Weapon is ‘Illuminatus’, you may decide that you should add an extra 2 points to the Tomb Robbers'
COMBAT SKILL
as it is being used underground.

[
13
] (
Section 136
) If your Kai Weapon is ‘Illuminatus’, you may decide that you should add an extra 2 points to the Tomb Robbers'
COMBAT SKILL
as it is being used underground.

[
14
] (
Section 254
) If your Kai Weapon is ‘Illuminatus’, you may decide that you should add an extra 2 points to the Tomb Robbers'
COMBAT SKILL
as it is being used underground.
