He spoke of Cassilda and Camilla, and sounded the cloudy depths of Demhe and the Lake of Hali.”  \n–Robert W. Chambers,“TheRepairer of Reputations”The Path to Carcosa is a campaign for Arkham Horror: The Card Game for 1–4 players.“Curtain Call” and “The Last King” can be found in The Path to Carcosa deluxe expansion.“Echoes of the Past,” “The Unspeakable Oath,” “A Phantom of Truth,” “The Pallid Mask,” “Black Stars Rise,” and “Dim Carcosa” can be found in the six Mythos Packs ofthe same titles within The Path to Carcosa cycle.  \nAdditional Rules and Clarifications   \nNew Keyword: Hidden  \nSome encounter cards in The Path to Carcosa campaign have the“hidden” keyword. Hidden cards have Revelation abilities that secretly add them to your hand. This should be done without revealing that card or its text to the other investigators. While a hidden card is in your hand, treat it as ifit were in your threat area. Its Constant abilities are active, and abilities on it can be triggered, but only by you. A hidden card counts toward your hand size, but it cannot be discarded from your hand by any means except those described on the card. When discarded, hidden cards are placed in the encounter discard pile. They do not remain a part of your deck like weaknesses do. For the best experience, players are encouraged to stay “in character” and not share information about hidden cards in their hand.  \nLola and “Roles”  \nAs a renowned actress, Lola Hayes can play many different roles. At the beginning of each scenario, after investigators draw opening hands, Lola Hayes must choose a role (Neutral, Guardian, Seeker, Rogue, Mystic, or Survivor). Lola can only play cards, commit cards to skill tests, or trigger 􀀉, 􀀊, or 􀀡 abilities on Neutral cards or cards whose class matches her role. This restriction only applies to player cards, not to encounter cards or weaknesses. Note that Constant and Forced abilities remain active on cards whose class does not match Lola’s role.  \nDoubt and Conviction  \nSome story resolutions and interludes in The Path to Carcosa campaign instruct the players to “Mark one Doubt” or “Mark one Conviction” in their Campaign Log. This is done by filling in oneof the boxes next to “Doubt” or “Conviction” at the bottom of the Campaign Log.  \nLater in the campaign, some scenarios maybe changed or altered depending on whether the investigators “have more Doubt than Conviction” or “have more Conviction than Doubt.”  \nThe investigators have more Doubt than Conviction if the number of boxes filled in next to Doubt is greater than the number of boxes filled in next to Conviction (and vice versa). Doubt and Conviction are shared among all of the investigators, and they are not tied to any specific investigator. Doubt and Conviction have no game effect except when explicitly referenced by the Campaign Guide or by a card effect.  \nStory Cards  \nStory cards are a new cardtype in The Path to Carcosa campaign. These cards serve as an avenue for additional narrative and typically appear as the reverse side of another scenario card. When you are instructed to resolve a story card, simply read its story text and resolve its game text, if any.  \nExpansion Icon  \nThe cards in The Path to Carcosa campaign can be identified by this symbol before each card’s collector number:  \nCampaign Setup  \nTo set up The Path to Carcosa campaign, perform the following steps in order.  \n1. Choose investigator(s).  \n2. Each player assembles his or her investigator deck.  \n3. Choose difficulty level.  \n4.
