Ticks Slice 0.8.5's acceptance criteria against the implemented behavior, verified against the seed and service code rather than assumed, and notes that the Bandit Blade's World Renown 3 gate is deliberately unreachable until Slice 0.11 adds the milestones to reach it. Points Slice 0.9 at the concrete bypass mechanism that now exists (BORIN_OFFER_IDS.hideBag's bypassConditions flag) instead of the placeholder reference to "the quest/referral exception". Also commits the slice's plan and research-notes documents, which were untracked. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Ashen Realms – Slice Pack 0.6.6 to 0.12
This pack replaces the previously planned post-0.6 progression order with a sequence aligned to the new Reputation / World Renown progression model.
Recommended implementation order
0.6.6-English-Game-Content-Foundation.md0.7-Complete-Burned-Road-V2.md0.7.5-Monster-Categories-and-Loot-Bags.md0.8-Graufurt-Merchant-and-Trade-In.md0.8.5-Reputation-Gated-Merchant-Offers.md0.9-First-Quest-and-Bag-Tutorial.md0.10-Abandoned-Watchpost.md0.11-Ash-Pit-and-Ashen-Band-Captain.md0.12-Ashen-Fields-Complete-and-Polish.md
Core progression rule for this pack
Normal monsters do not directly grant XP, Silver, regional reputation or World Renown.
Instead:
Monster
→ trade goods / equipment
→ loot-bag capacity
→ merchant
→ Silver + regional reputation + World Renown
→ better bags / equipment / access
→ stronger content
Major one-time milestones such as a first area-boss victory may grant direct World Renown when explicitly configured.
Language rule
From Slice 0.6.6 onward:
All player-facing game content is English. Development documentation may remain German.
