The Trading Post

The Trading Post offers warbands special equipment apart from that in their faction entry, and can be visited during the Manage Warbands step of the Aftermath Sequence. The items at the Trading Post are available to all factions, and can be purchased freely by both HENCHMEN and HEROES (although they can only equip one of each item).

Rare Items

Rare items (symbolized with a crow’s skull ) are hard to find and usually require knowing the right person or carrying a big purse (usually both). All other items are considered to be common.

To find a rare item, you must make a rarity roll: first select a Hero and declare what rare item they are looking for, and then roll a dice:

• On a 6+, the Hero has successfully found the item and may buy it for the listed gold cost. If the item is listed as Single Use, roll a d3 to see how many items are available.
• You may send additional heroes to assist looking for the item. For each hero beyond the first, you may add 1 to the rarity roll.
• A hero can look for, or assist in looking for one rare item per Aftermath Sequence.
• A roll of 1 always results in a failure.

Single-Use Items

Some items, such as drugs and poisons, are listed as 'Single-Use'. Each item states when it can be used and its effects resolved, after which it is discarded and removed from your warband roster.
