@crossedpaths.co.uk It seems page references in the PDF might be wrong too... on p.24, it talks about DEPTHS being on p.24 (when it's on p.26). Similarly, Basic Rules on 8 says "ITEM reward (pg.26)" but I'm thinking it should be pg.28? Also, same page, Combat is p.30, not 29. Etc.

@crossedpaths.co.uk Hello! In Brambletrek Core Rulebook, p.8, what does "Beating an opponent on the Red table" mean? I see no other mention of "Red table" (or, for that matter, "red"). Does it mean a Hearts event card? Thank you! (/me is planning a Discord-based group game.)
