hi! Love fallen. Playing this solo as my first quest/rules-teach. Just got wrecked by a giant-flay-spider in space one of the woods of despair sending me back to wake up at the tavern. But I got a plan! Next time I face it, I’ll be the one wrecking!
Nice!! Yea it's a tough game. I went back and forth tweaking the difficulty on this and eventually added the "solo" scale to bump it down a bit. Just to get through the adventure, you could scale it down even more with 8+ being success. Or head back to Herot and keep gambling!! I wish you luck traveler.
