The decision behind every plan
How much Attentionwill you commit?
Commitment determines Priority. Attention you keep remains available to reduce a rival's attack later in the round.
Commit more → place laterKeep more → interfere laterAll plans reveal together
Example: three hunters chose the same Bounty
Priority
More Attention means higher Priority—and later placement.
Commit any amount from 1–6.This example uses 2, 4, and 6 to make the order easy to follow.
Qualifying hunters place in reverse Priority order. Each later hunter may insert at the Front, between rivals, or at the Back.
Split Attention
Saved Attention can reduce a rival's attack.
After Provisional Damage is announced, other hunters in that Attack Lineup may spend Available Attention. Each cube reduces the attack by 1 Damage.

What changes from hunt to hunt
Choose your target.Manage the risks.
Attention decides where you stand. The Bounties, dice, Boons, and Monster Behaviors decide what that position is worth.
Choose where to compete
Several Bounties are in play.
Commit in secret and guess where your rivals will strike — crowd the same monster, or slip off to another.
Neglect
Ignored Bounties gain Boons.
A surviving Bounty that nobody targeted stages a face-down Boon for a future attacker.
Dice and Momentum
Attacks are uncertain. Momentum adds control.
Spend Momentum before rolling. Each token adds 1 Damage to the attack.
Monster Behaviors
Most monsters change how they are hunted.
Behaviors can alter targeting, damage, positioning, or what happens when a monster survives.
