Please Explain Dance Macabre and Battle Royal endings

[Nagumo]

Hi there,

just look at these two endings and don't get the clue.

1) Dance Macabre
With the Reaper you only can kill one char per round. So if you don't have the house rule on which gives every player only one char, you can't kill any player (because at the start of his next round he can take a new char) --> This can't be!
--> So i think there is missing some description. Could anybody explain that please?

2) Battle Royal
First sentence says that every player is losing without a talisman. So game starts and have to end immediately, because no char has a talisman --> This can't be!
--> So again please could someone explain that in detail?

Once a character reaches the Crown of Command , nobody picks new characters when they die. What you aren't grasping is that these things happen when somebody reaches the CoC.

But than again i don't get the clue of battle royal, because it says that a player with a talisman is teleported to the CoC. So why the long description of fighting? The first char gets a talisman --> is teleported to the CoC and all other chars are dying because they don't have a talisman.
--> I don't think that it is working this way XD

Battle Royale is works like this:

You play the game like normal. Once the first player gets to the Crown of Command space, everyone else that also had a Talisman is teleported to the Crown of Command space; everyone who did not have a Talisman is killed.

Then the remaining players fight it out on the Crown.

The ending does not trigger until a player moves to the centre of the board. So, you do not teleport to the Crown until someone is already there.

I read the description once again and finally got it. Oh man sometimes i'm eally dumb

You already have answered my question with:

So thx for your patience and your longer explanation

little side note... the first player that reaches crown actually does not need a talisman with battle royal. (yes its possible to get there without one [several ways in fact.])
