Finally got into a Freebooters game and uuugh, it is so good, I really wish it got more love.
I rolled a beast of a fighter with 18 Constitution, max HP (10), AND Scale Mail (3 armor), AND is Evil! Our 2HP magic user went down last session and I quickly snatched up his coin, …and his spellbook to auction off to the highest bidder! Thankfully he did come in use before expiring, with a spell named Fissure of Water – we “Pulled a Moses” with a horde of orcs on our tail.
Quick question, seeing as I survived to level 2 (another 8 HP!). Is current HP meant to go up along with Max HP or are we meant to only gain the difference with Recover/Make Camp?
Not an official response, but in my game we only raised max HP at level up, and recovered current HP through the moves as usual. Also, you are correct, Freebooters is so good!
As usual, John Marron has the right of it!
Happy to hear your fighter is a cutthroat bastard 🙂
Freebooters is my favorite game of the past 30 years.
aw shucks
Maezar Mine too!
John Marron we should create something Freebooters together!
Maezar Hmmm… Let me think about that. You could certainly make anything I did look better 🙂
