Heyo! The following is Errata added to Demesnes & Domination! The pdf has been updated but for print copies, this is the official update to some rules, clarifications, and additions. I've split it into two sections, one for a general errata and one specifically for damage resolution for mass Combat as listed below. The following errata info is printable with both sections on their own sheets for easy printing and insertion into your print copy. Here is a link to the Main Errata Sheet and the Mass Combat Errata Sheet! For those that have ordered a print copy in the past month, the updates are minor grammatical fixes and the damage multiplier for mass combat. Enjoy!
ERRATA AS OF DECEMBER 24th, 2023:
ADDED:
Pg. 22; Class-Oriented Structures and housing for Henchmen: All class-oriented structures have enough housing for the listed maximum number for any level indicating 200 square feet of space per henchmen. However, zero-level henchmen can be provided 20 square feet instead, representing bunk beds and common housing areas instead of private quarters.
Pg. 67; Ransoming Henchmen: Players who are able to capture enemy leaders and/or their henchmen are able to ransom them back. The estimated gold piece value is equivalent to that NPC's XP level. For any first level henchmen, it is equal to ½ their second-level XP requirement (so a fighter that is 1st level is worth 1000 gp to ransom, a magic user is worth 1,250gp etc.) Conversely, a Player Character's henchman might be captured and may have to deal with negotiating terms to return a beloved and important henchman back into their party.
- Players are encouraged to set their own ransom price, including non-monetary rewards if desired or necessary, but the referee should use this benchmark to determine chances of success or failure when negotiating a ransom deal and having it modified using the reaction roll if necessary. Items, property, or services roughly equal to the gold/xp amount may also be considered an option as well.
FIXED AND CLARIFIED
Page 16; Labor Dispute: workers aren’t getting along with the PC or the Engineer. Increase total remaining time by 1/2 unless resolved
Pg. 30; Demesnes Encounter: Traveling Entertainers provide +1 morale if you pay them. Use the settlement size multiplier on page 18 and multiply it by 100 to determine the cost of the entertainers for that settlement.
Pg. 33: Landed Title Table: changed hex mile amounts by title
Pg. 80; Fortifying Encampments:
Trench: 1 turn per 5x5x1 area per individual digging
Fence: 1 turn per 5ft wide section
Abatis: 1 turn to make 1d4 sharpened sticks
Pg. 138: Bounty Hunter Encounter: 3) 3) looking for info on a Party associate
Pg.98; Magic Item Crafting - Charges: The base cost of treating a mundane item to hold magic charges costs 1000gp per spell level and takes one wee/spell level. Adding charges costs an additional +100 gp per level/charge. The maximum amount of charges is determined when it is crafted based on the time and cost needed but modifies the crafting chance by -5% per additional charge. Recharging a reusable item requires using two Magic Components per spell level for each charge when crafting.
Pg. 138; Human Encounter: 6) Bounty Hunters; 1) mislead by bad information 2) looking for a party member 3) looking for info on a Party associate
DEMESNES & DOMINATION MASS COMBAT ERRATA
ADDED & CHANGED:
Damage Resolution has been simplified and changed for easier and faster game play:
Pg. 46; Mass Combat Damage: Any damage rolled automatically removes that many Hit Die worth of soldiers from the damaged unit, rounded up. For example, a unit of 10 1HD soldiers with spears rolls 1d6 for damage; dealing 4 damage which is the equivalent to 4HD worth of soldiers in the enemy unit is removed.
Units with individual soldiers that are less than 1 hit die count as 1/2 hit die for damage. This means for every one point of damage inflicted, that unit loses two soldiers. For example, a unit of 10 1HD soldiers with spears rolls 1d6 for damage; dealing 6 damage against a levy unit of 20 Normal Men soldiers The levy unit loses 12 individuals from the unit.
Any unit that has heroes in their ranks that are in the front line roll separately and add any damage they provide to the total done by the unit. However, this exposes the hero to also taking any damage rolls made by the unit. For example, a unit with a player character fighting takes 7 damage. The unit loses 7 1HD soldiers and the player character also takes 7 points of damage.
Original mass combat damage has since been changed to Simulation Damage
Pg. 47; Maximum Mass Combat Damage Rule: This option allows for quicker combat without needing to do additional damage dice rolling but has more
deadly results- When a unit takes damage, they lose Hit die worth of soldiers damage equal to the full weapon damage die.
Pg. 47: Exhaustion: All units have to rest after a maximum of six mass combat rounds if they are moving, casting spells, and/or attacking. Any unit that doesn’t rest accrues a -1 to every attack, AC, morale checks, and saves for every combat round they keep active after six.
Any unit that only moves less than 1/2 their movement speed doesn’t incur exhaustion for the movement.
Pg. 47; Multiple Hit-die Soldiers and Monsters: units that make up of soldiers that each have multiple hit dice, the amount of soldiers or monsters removed from the unit is rounded down.
Example: A unit of 10 Ogres where each ogre has 3 Hit Die is attacked by a unit of 20 archers. The Ogre unit takes 10 damage total, where 10 Hit Die worth of Ogres are removed rounding it down to 3 ogres are removed from the unit.
Pg. 47; Mass Combat Spell Damage: As stated earlier, any spell that inflicts damage eliminates a number of hit die worth or enemy units equal to the amount of dice rolled. Any successful saves instead deal 1/2 the amount of hit die worth of damage, rounded down.
Pg. 47: Hit Die = Hit Points: Due to the function of hit die to keep track of the number of units fighting, then hit dice essentially function as hit points from traditional combat but zoomed out to account for a full minute of combat instead of 10 seconds.
Pg. 47: Unit Groups below 10 soldiers: When a unit gets reduced to less than 10 remaining soldiers, roll morale again. If it’s a failure, then the remaining unit flees. If they hold their morale then the unit can still fight but incur a -1 to attacks and to their morale score. Any additional hit against the unit requires a morale check to maintain fighting.
REMOVED
Pg. 45; Mass Combat Unit Make-up damage multiplier: Removed the multiplier to damage for both on foot (x10) and mounted units (x5) since that was only applied to the prior damage resolution from an earlier printing where units had Hit Points instead of subtracting hit die worth of soldiers or monsters from damage.
Pg. 47; Mixed Units (optional) damage multiplier: Removed the multiplier to damage (x10)
