Far Away - Errata

Second Edition

While most issues were fixed in the latest version, a few lingering typos persisted. We would like to blame software malfunctions to spare the feelings for Federation staffers, so we will.

Minor Typos

  • CARDs

    • Erinaceinae Spicati: "posion" -> "poison"

  • CARD Board

    • Bioplastic Refinery slot: "built on" -> "found in”

First Edition

The following changes apply to the first version of Far Away (Kickstarter and pre-2022). If you purchased a version before 2022, please correct these errors in your Far Away kit before take off. Failure to do so may result in explosions.

CARD Board

  • Fuel Deposits and Fuel Wells are and found in built on Deserts, not Canyons. The purple symbol is correct and does correspond to the Desert HEXes.

This MAT section is rendered for 2”x5.5”. Explorers who wish to patch their ship’s hardware are encouraged to apply this to a label and cover up the old MAT section.

Manual

  • These CARD and TOKEN counts are slightly off:

    • Building CARDs: 6 (+33).

    • Creature CARDs: 32 (+3).

    • Gear CARDs: 16 (+18).

    • Creature TOKENs: 192 (+22).

    • Drone TOKENs: 3 (+6)

    • Crash Site/Repaired Ship CARD: 1.

  • Page 17: Parasitic creatures need to take an action to attach to a creature. This action is the “Parasitic” action and immediately applies the effects described in the CARD description.

  • The Resource CUBEs used in a Build action can come from anywhere in the HEX: your cargo, your partner’s cargo, or the ground.
