Correct, the 6 Core cultures plus the 3 Wilderland cultures adapted directly from 1e. I seem to recall Francesco answered the question (yours?) during a Backerkit livestream saying that Bardings is an umbrella for bothe the Men of Dale and the Men of Esgaroth, ergo there would not be a separate Men of the Lake culture. But I am going from memory not any transcript.

Can I assume then that the Lifepaths booklet covers the six core cultures (Bardings; Dwarves of Durin's Folk; Elves of Lindon; Hobbits of the Shire; Men of Bree; Rangers of the North) plus the three Wilderland ones (Beornings; Elves of Mirkwood; Woodmen of Wilderland)? It is a shame that no one thought to add Men of Dale to Peoples of Wilderland and Lifepaths.

Reply: General Role-Playing:: Re: QOTD OCT 23: How do you make an unsuccessful dice roll change the situation instead of simply stopping the action?

For example, the wizard did not deal enough damage to crack the gate open. However, some of the broken stones in the wall now make a perilous line of cracks, maybe letting a rogue climb up to the top. Or, the bartender has thrown out the party for their lack of etiquette, but now one of the local scums has taken a liking to the characters and walks up to them, offering the same info as the bartender for a fee.

Another idea, the failed roll costs the group a little, but it enables another force (a protagonist, a force of nature, an animal etc.) to act up on it, thus changing the situation and opening new alleys.For example, the wizard did not deal enough damage to crack the gate open.
