Aurochs Hunting

Large herds form on the Flats in spring. The Hillfolk hunt them, but Stonetop has never learned to do so.

Requires 2 of the following: a Herd of Horses with hunters to ride them; cooperation with the Hillfolk; a cunning plan. Then it also requires a successful first hunt, played out in detail.

When you meet the requirements, add "Aurochs hunting (meat, hide, horn)" to the Resources list. Henceforth, when you lead the aurochs hunt in spring, roll +Defenses. On a 10+, gain 1d4 Surplus. On a 7-9, gain 1d4 Surplus but pick 1. On a 6-, pick 1, or pick 2 and gain 1d4 Surplus.

• 1d4 of the town's horses are lamed or killed
• A number of locals are injured; the steading marks diminished
• The GM picks an NPC present for the hunt; they are killed
• The Hillfolk are somehow offended
• The herd is weak; if you hunt next year, they will be wiped out
