The Unholy Chronicles
PnP v0.1.65 Patch Summary
Rules Clarity
Sultan's Command cost corrected to 4T across all three instances (Scenario Guide, 2d Resource Spending, Preset sheet). Wording standardized to single master version.
Reinforcement wording standardized across all instances to: "a friendly unit that has not yet activated this turn activates immediately, out of sequence. A Locked Hero may not be targeted."
Rally clarified: no movement allowed. "Can be taken after moving" removed.
Hero Rally Command renamed Inspire throughout. Quick Reference Routing Check modifiers updated to match.
Morale Check range corrected to 2-5 Shaken (was 1-5 — minimum 2D6 roll is 2).
BM 1 status table updated: "4+ BM Out of Action" now includes hearts caveat directing player to unit card for individual thresholds. Same note added to Quick Reference Blood Marker Status.
Shaken now explicitly states "then clears" after next activation.
Binding Check rewritten into three clear cases: handler in base contact, handler on board not in base contact, no handler.
Structure
Blood Markers block moved to between Step 1 and Step 2 as standalone concept section.
Fallen Ranks token removed from token sheet. FM tokens now do all tracking.
Force Morale explanation added before Fallen Ranks in document flow.

2c Broken Units reference added as forward pointer to Step 4b.
3b Objective Control now includes FM explanation and win condition.
Fallen Ranks simplified: one FM token removed per standard unit OOA. Tally tracking removed.

PnP v0.1.66 Patch Summary
Rules Clarity
Added definition for FIGHT: Resolve a melee attack against an enemy in base contact. Can be taken after moving. Cannot be declared if you moved into base contact this activation - use CHARGE instead.
Updated clarity on CHARGE: Cannot be declared if already in base contact with an enemy at the start of your activation.
PnP v0.1.67 Patch Summary
Rules - New Actions
ADVANCE action removed. Replaced by revised activation header: "Each activation, a unit may move up to its MOV value and take up to one action. Some actions (Charge, Brace) replace movement. A unit may not move through enemy units. Terrain may modify movement distance - see Terrain."
Rules - Clarifications
CHARGE updated: Must end in base contact with target. Wavering units must pass a Morale Test before declaring. Broken units cannot Charge.
Retreat defined in BM1: Infantry move 3" directly away from nearest enemy. Cavalry move 6". No movement required if already out of base contact. Retreat removes Brace.
Feigned Retreat (Bahri Cavalry) fully rewritten: when targeted by a Charge, before melee resolves, may move 6" in any direction. Attacker completes their Charge move. If contact not established, attacker loses Charge bonus. Bahri may immediately make one free Composite Bow attack against the attacker. Usable while Wavering. Once per activation.
Bahri Cavalry unit card / appendix updated: Feigned Retreat text corrected to match new definition. Old text (automatic 1 BM from trap) replaced with free Composite Bow counter-attack on failed contact.
Terminology
Morale Check → Morale Test throughout. Distinguishes the 2D6+MOR roll from 1D6 checks. Routing Check and Binding Check retain their names.
Step 4 renamed: STEP 4 — MORALE TEST throughout document and Quick Reference.
Morale Test Results
Rattled (6–8) now has a mechanic: cannot Rally next activation. Was "no immediate effect."
Setup
Step 6 updated: unit cards clarified as stat references - keep beside the board, not on it. Players use their own miniatures or tokens. One marker per unit card.
Facing declaration added to Step 6: declare facing when placing unit. This is its facing until it moves. Arrow token or die recommended for round tokens.
Quick Reference
Rattled updated to: "Cannot Rally next activation."
Blood Marker Status: "MOR Check" corrected to "Morale Test." 3 BM Broken entry now includes Retreat distances: Infantry 3", Cavalry 6" directly away from nearest enemy.
ADVANCE row removed from Actions table.
Tokens
RATTLED token added to Status Tokens sheet. Required for tracking cannot-Rally condition.
