Three Knife Ash

A game of Three Knife Ash simply requires a few dice, some luck, and a sharp knife. The blood stains on the table are a testament to those who pushed their luck too far.

Three Knife Ash & More

"Cleverly written and highly thematic ... each game is unique and engaging."

Included are three simple dice games for players of Pirate Borg and MÖRK BORG:

• Three Knife Ash: Push your luck to get the highest score, but make sure you roll at least three knives (1s on the die). Of course, you could make up for the missing ones by impaling your hand with a knife.
• Purser's Squares: The tavern's Purser will be happy to accept your bets and roll the dice. Three matches pays out 3:1, but the house always wins.
• Ship, Captain, and Crew: The traditional game with a twist. Win prizes from the tavern's boxes, ranging from trinkets to something far more valuable. A great way for GMs to give plot hook items to their players.

All three games only require six-sided dice and can be played in a few minutes, so they won't interrupt the story. This is a 5-page PDF.

Created for the 2024 Cabin Fever Game Jam.
