Root Homeland - Knaves of Deepwood Insert (RBGS-R)

Presenting the Root Board Game System - Remix!

The original Root Board Game System by @extroodle was exceptional work, and was 95% the solution I wanted. The RBGS-R (pronounced “er-big-sir” by probably nobody) is a remix of almost every module, with tweaks and improvements that cover that last 5%.

Knaves of the Deepwood

No faction tray was available for the Knaves of the Deepwood in the original Root Board Game System (RBGS), so this is my creation based on the previous faction RBGS modules. It is compatible with any other RBGS modules and shares all the features from the regular faction trays along with my RBGS-R improvements.

The Vagabond and Knaves share meeples and starting items, so this tray only holds the Knaves-specific components. This means that to play as the Knaves, you’ll need to take out both this module and the Vagabond module. Fortunately, the Knaves and Vagabond can never be in the same game together anyway.

The new Vagabond cards and Vagabond meeples that come with the Homeland expansion are stored in the Vagabond module.

Base Changes

Note: Since this is an original faction module, there was no “change” from the RBGS base, but I’ve still listed the general difference between the RBGS-R bases and the RBGS bases.

Added a wall to the card well

Cards can no longer slide out accidentally while the insert is being handled. The card well still fits card sleeves up to 67mm wide. Personally, I have the unsleeved summary card, captain cards, and clarification cards.
