Key Components
- Core gameplay: turn‑based combat, position‑based skills (front/mid/back ranks), party management.
- Stress mechanic: heroes gain stress from battles and events; high stress causes afflictions or virtues altering behavior.
- Town management: upgrade the Hamlet (Blacksmith, Guild, Sanitarium, Stagecoach, Abbey, etc.) to improve hero capabilities and unlock gear/skills.
- Resource loop: gather gold, heirlooms, provisions, and trinkets; balance expedition risk vs. reward.
- Roguelike elements: permadeath for characters (though later updates added options like legacy addons and difficulty modifiers).
- DLC/added content: new classes, bosses, areas, trinkets, and balance tweaks in anniversary or Ancestral editions.
