If it says play 8 events minus - per player how many for solo

Question

Accepted Answer

In a standard solo game (1 player), you would play 7 events (8 minus 1 per player). However, specific game modes like Story Mode or Challenge Mode may alter this count. Standard Calculation For a regular solo game, you apply the "minus 1 per player" rule directly to the number of players. Since there is 1 player, you subtract 1 from the base number. The rulebook uses this scaling logic in its examples for scalable events (Page 22: Story Mode), where the calculation is Base - (Number of Players). Therefore, 8 - 1 = 7. (Page 22: Story Mode) Story Mode Exception If you are playing in Story Mode to make the game easier, you resolve scalable events "as if you had one less person in your Party" (Page 22: Story Mode). In a solo game (1 player), this means treating yourself as 0 players for the calculation. The formula becomes 8 - 0 = 8 events. (Page 22: Story Mode) Challenge Mode Exception If you are playing in Challenge Mode, the rule states that "When the game requires you to place any Random Event cards, place 1 less than instructed" (Page 22: Challenge Mode). If the standard calculation results in 7, you would place 6 events in Challenge Mode. (Page 22: Challenge Mode)
