 INTRODUCTION

Here you’ll find what little is known about

the abysmal and eternal Foes
of the Hunt.
The Adversary​ is the quarry of a ​Hunt​, though they are far from easy prey. They are
powerful, cunning, and desperate to survive their encounter with a ​Cazador a​ nd
their P
​ ack​. Adversaries are sometimes supported by a cadre of M ​ inions​ that fight
and die to defend them, but the Adversary alone is the well from which the Hunt and
its horrors abound.

Each Adversary is unique, armed with knowledge and abilities that set it apart from
other earthly creatures. However, all Adversaries are immune to the effects of
Difficult ​and D
​ angerous Terrain​ and, despite a Pack’s numbers, they are never
considered ​Surrounded​.

USING THIS BOOK

In this book you’ll find everything that you need to set your Pack of Cazadores and
Companions against the fearsome and unnatural creatures of the Hunt.

In ​Foe Mechanics​, you’ll find the most important rules that affect ​Foes​, already
contained in the book of T ​ he Hunter​, reprinted here for easy reference.

In ​Adversaries​, you’ll find an account of all the Adversaries known to the keepers of the
Hunt. In A​ dversary Sheets​, you’ll also find a pre-filled Model Sheet for each Adversary
in this book so that you can print or photocopy it for use at the table.

Lastly, in ​Creating Adversaries​, you’ll find some rough guidelines for you to tap into the
whirling nightmares and horrors of the Hunt in your own mind.

1
 FOE MECHANICS
FOES
The F
​ oes​ opposing the ​Cazadores​ are defined with less detail but with all the
Attributes​ required to be worthy opponents. Foes’ A​ ctions​ are determined using F
​ oe
Type​, ​Decision Trees​, and the ​Adversary Deck​.

Attributes
All F
​ oes​ are defined by a condensed list of ​Attributes​:
◈ Speed (SPD): Q ​ uickness and how far it can move in one Action in inches.
◈ Attack (ATK):​ Ferocity in close (​Melee) a​ nd ranged (​Shooting​) combat.
◈ Range​ ​(RNG)​: Reach in close combat, often modified if the Model has access
to S
​ hooting Attacks​.
◈ Terror (TER): ​Unnatural power, used to terrify and clear ​Conditions​.
◈ Defence (DEF): ​Physical agility and strength, defining its capacity to defend
itself against A
​ ttacks​, traps, etc.
◈ Wounds (WND): P ​ hysical health.

Foe Types & Decision Trees

Minions​ are the minor F ​ oes​ that aid the A​ dversary​ in attempting to crush the
Cazadores​. They follow a simple set of D ​ ecision Trees​ to execute ​Actions​ during
their T
​ urns​ that varies according to their ​Foe Type​:
◈ Aggressive (♠): M ​ odels that seek to engage the Cazadores​,​ heedless of the
danger and odds. Usually focused on close combat.
◈ Defensive (♦): ​Models that avoid close combat maintaining range or seeking
strength in numbers. Usually focused on ranged combat.
◈ Sentry (♣): M ​ odels that do not focus on engaging the Cazadores in combat
and instead patrol Objectives or positions near the Adversary.

Foe Move and Recover Actions

Like other Models, Foes also receive a free Move Action, therefore, the first Move
Action is often free. However, Foes​ c​ an take the R
​ ecover Action​ instead of the free
Move Action, and will always do so to clear Conditions before resolving D ​ ecision
Trees​. Foes will also always move as far as possible as whenever they execute a Move
Action.

2
Determining Aggro
Whenever there are multiple possible Targets for a Foe’s actions, the players
determine ​Aggro​, according to Foe Type, in order to select a final Target. Ties are
broken randomly by rolling a d10.
◈ Aggressive (♠) : H ​ ostile Model within 10”, LOS, and most WNDs remaining.
◈ Defensive (♦): ​Hostile Model within 10”, LOS, and least​ W ​ NDs remaining.
◈ Sentry (♣):​ Closest Hostile Model within 10” and LOS.

Decision Trees
A Minion’s Turn involves answering “Yes or No” questions, in order, according to
their Decision Tree and executing the first “Yes” response.

Decision Trees

Foe Type Question Order

Aggressive (♠) 1) Close Combat; 2) Aggress; 3) Reposition; 4) Hold Ground

Defensive (♦) 1) Retreat; 2) Reposition; 3) Aggress; 4) Hold Ground

Sentry (♣) 1) Close Combat; 2) Ranged Combat;

3) Reposition; 4) Hold Ground

Decision Tree Questions

Aggress​:​ I​ s the Foe within 10” of a Hostile Model?
Yes​: Foe takes Move Action toward Target, then resolves C
​ lose Combat​,
else ​Ranged Combat​, else takes a second Move Action toward Target.

Hold Ground​: T
​ he Foe holds their position and ends their Turn (1 Tick).

Close Combat:​ Is the Foe within LOS and close combat of a Hostile Model?
Yes​: The Foe takes a Melee Attack Action against the Target.

Ranged Combat:​ ​Is the Foe within LOS and ranged combat of a Hostile Model?
Yes​: The Foe takes a Shooting Attack Action against the Target.

3
Reposition​: ​Is the Foe more than 5” away from Friendly Models or Objectives?
Yes:​ The Foe takes a Move Action toward whichever is closest in this
order: 1) furthest Objective, 2) largest group of Minions, 3) the Adversary,
then ​Close Combat​, ​else R
​ anged Combat​, else ​Hold Ground​.

Retreat​: I​ s the Foe within a Hostile Model’s LOS and close combat range?
Yes​: The Foe takes a Move Action away from the Target and any
other Hostile Models then resolves R​ anged Combat​, e​ lse ​Hold Ground​.

Resolving “Else” in Decision Trees

Some decisions require a Foe check other questions, as indicated by “else”. This
means that the Foe executes the next question in the order that is a “Yes”. For
example, after the first move in A
​ gress​, the Foe checks C
​ lose Combat​, then R
​ anged
Combat​, with a second Move as the last choice to no other Yes responses.

The Adversary Deck

Adversaries​ are the major ​Foes​ of any ​Hunt​ and, in turn, they are much more
unpredictable and dangerous. To simulate the greater complexity of these Foes, each
Adversary uses the A​ dversary Deck​, a standard 52-card deck of playing cards split
and shuffled to form two separate piles, ​Hit Locations​ (the numbered 2-10 cards) and
Actions​ (the Ace and face cards).

Each ​Adversary​ has a detailed entry for their Adversary Deck that describes specific
Hit Locations and Actions tailored to fit their nature and particular qualities.

Hit Locations
All Adversaries have their total number of ​Wounds (WND)​ spread out across various
Hit Locations. Whenever the players’ M​ odels​ successfully attack the Adversary, they
flip a number of Hit Location cards equal to WNDs dealt, and the WNDs are removed
from that specific Hit Location.

When a specific Hit Location’s Wounds have been exhausted, there is usually an
effect described in the Adversary’s entry. In addition, all future WNDs dealt to that
Hit Location are treated as WNDs to the next highest Hit Location.

4
 For example, an Adversary’s Upper Limbs take 3 WNDs with 1 WND remaining.
The last WND is removed and its arm is maimed, reducing its Attack Rating by 2.
The remaining 2 WNDs are dealt to its next highest Hit Location, here, the Torso.

Adversary Actions
During the​ Adversary’s Turn​, the players flip over and reveal one card from the
Adversary’s pile of Actions. The specific card revealed is interpreted in terms of its
suit and value to determine the Adversary’s Actions for its Turn.

The suit determines which ​Foe Type​ the Adversary will use this Turn:
◈ Spades (♠): ​Aggressive Foe Type
◈ Diamonds (♦) : ​Defensive Foe Type
◈ Clubs (♣): S​ entry Foe Type
◈ Hearts (♥): S ​ pecial Foe Type

The S
​ pecial​ Foe Type is only applicable to Adversaries and refers to a mixed set of ​Foe
Types​ that the Adversary will follow as detailed in their entry. For example, a Jack of
Hearts might refer to the ​Defensive Decision Tree​ whereas the Queen of Hearts
might refer to the A​ ggressive Decision Tree​.

The value on the card determines the specific Action that the Adversary will take.
Usually this is a form of Attack and includes additional specialized modifiers tailored
to the Adversary.

An example Adversary Action​

Ace (Sweeping Smash)​: +2 ATK +1 RNG. All Hostile Models within RNG suffer a
Melee Attack. Models hit are pushed 2” away.

Exhausting the Adversary Deck

Whenever the Hit Location or Action piles for the Adversary are exhausted, the
players should simply take the discard piles, and without shuffling, turn them over to
create new Hit Location and Action piles.

This allows the players to predict the Adversary’s Actions to some degree.

5
Terror Attacks
While C
​ azadores​ must rely on cutting down their enemies, F ​ oes​ can also use their
innate fearsomeness to make A ​ ttacks​ using their ​Terror Rating​. These Attacks are
usually reserved for the ​Adversary​, affect multiple models, and impose the T ​ errified
Condition​, however, they rarely inflict W​ ounds​.

Terror Attacks are considered Shooting Attacks with the following exceptions:
◈ The Foe uses their T ​ error Rating ​to make the Shooting Check.
◈ The D ​ T​ for the Attack is the Target’s Fortitude Rating.

Here you’ll find what little is known about

the abysmal and eternal Foes
of the Hunt​.

9
 An Accursed Construct
Shifting and whispering plates of a sleek alloy. A mockery of a human face,
unfocused, unwavering, and unfathomable. Clawed fusils cradle a floating core
radiating with unnatural warmth. The orb burns without flame, compelling all living
things to their end in seconds stretched over decades.

The jealous and silent guardian to a place long withered and carried off by the earth,
sea, and wind. Duty-bound, the knight patrols the borders of its master’s home. The
rearguard to a war always on the horizon.

11
 The Constant Emperor’s Praetorians
Bones thinly veiled by brackish skin, draped in darkness, the fiery words of their
regent where their eyes once sat. The Praetorians, relentless and indomitable, sweep
the long-forgotten trails once marched by their emperor's army. Wielding the
Cerulean Flame, they incinerate any and all things that have touched the ground
upon which their emperor set foot on his final conquest.

Heralds, confidants, and consorts to the emperor, from which all noble things flow,
the Praetorians were ordered to safeguard the kingdom while he seized the last
unknown corner of the map, never to return. Ageless, mad, and resentful, the
Praetorians scour the earth.

The Triumvirate​: Deploy the praetorians by randomly determining which to deploy

30 WNDs (10 each). Damage done to one may in fact harm another. When all the Hit
Locations for one Praetorian are exhausted, that Praetorian can no longer fight.
The Sword, The Axe, and the Mace​: T
​ he names of the Praetorians have long been lost to
time so each is referred to by their chosen weapon. The Adversary's Actions are
executed by all of the Praetorians but the Target for each Praetorian's Action is
determined individually. The Praetorian with the most WNDs remaining always
executes the Action first, otherwise order is determined at random. The Praetorian’s
joint Personal Clock is advanced by the highest Tick Cost of all Actions performed.

 A Creature Wreathed in Light
Luminous and astounding. A myriad of limbs moving with balletic grace. Greens,
oranges, and golden filigree adorn the feathered wings that maintain it aloft in
majesty. Vines flowering in a thousand radiant colors extend and brush terra
firma.Deep under a canopy of ancient trees, heavy with moisture, it waits for the end
of days.

From the edges of the rainforest travellers can feel the reverberations of the
creature’s song. The nearer both flora and fauna are to the creature, the more
rapturously they sway to its voice. Members of the joyful audience sometimes
plucked gently by a spear tip to sustain the creature’s vigil.

 A Neonate Wurm
A monstrous and writhing shape of muscle bound in a lustrous carapace. A thousand
razored and hooked legs drag its mass in undulating patterns. Twin ridged prongs
set atop its eyeless mask probe and search along the ground, perceptive of
disturbances in grains of sand leagues away.

Said to be the harbingers of an arid and torrid age augured by the expanding dunes,
only the youngest emerge from the deep to feed and grow. Guides plead their charges
to abide that nights in the desert must be spent in silence, lest they wake the mothers,
ripened by millenia, that sleep beneath the sand.

 The Wandering Son of The Mountain
Pale, emaciated, and long-limbed. Hunched over at the waist with primordial shale
protruding from its skin. The Wandering Son carries an old oak as a club and attacks
caravans and cattle that wander too deep into the mountain.

In nearby villages, children are told that the moanings of the wind at night are the
cries of the Wandering Son. He weeps for the loss of his siblings, the great kingdom
of his people, and his pitiful fate as brigand, thief, and eater of men.

 CHANGELOG
v.03
General
◈ The Adversary section is broken out into its own “book” for ease of use!
◈ New Adversaries: An Accursed Construct, A Creature Wreathed in Light,
The Constant Emperor’s Praetorians, and A Neonate Wyrm.

Wandering Son of the Mountain

◈ He’s received a few buffs to his stats (+1 ATK, +1 DEF, +TER), since he was a
little too easy even as a starting Adversary.
◈ Some attacks have also received tweaks for clarity and balance.

v.04
General
◈ Reduced the +RNG on all Adversary Action by 1 to make it a little easier to
maneuver around them.

Constant Emperor’s Praetorians

◈ -1 ATK and -1 SPD to the Praetorians who were a tad too strong.
◈ Special rules for T
​ he Triumvirate​ have been renamed under ​TThread That Binds
so that The Triumvirate now explains how they are deployed.
◈ Additionally, clarified how much the Praetorian’s Personal Clock is
advanced when they each take different actions while resolving decision
trees.

Creatures Wreathed in Light

◈ -1 SPD to Attributes.

Neonate Wurm
◈ -1 SPD to Attributes.
