Playtesting mostly happens at my hometable - the PBF moddings I do due to public demand, to catch errors and to provide further playtesting.

Speaking of progess, an hour ago I finished the final maps and their texts! So the complete campaign is available now!

I am working now on createing cards for the lieutenants, relics and new items, heroes, classes and overlord cards I intend to add in. If someone is expierienced with it, I could provide all raw data and input and would add your credits to the campaign.

@Morthai fantastic work you are doing. Keep it up and I do hope you will not stop just on this campaign :)

Also if you would link/show/wrote a tutorial on how to make your own cards it would be nice.

All the Best, Anchorr

I'm currently play testing this campaign (#3, he's currently running 4 of them) with Morthai and so far the intro quest is really well thought out. As far as I'm aware, hero wins for the intro quest are 1 out of 3 with the 4th campaign unknown to me at the moment. Morthai is doing quite an excellent job here.

with my hometesting together it was more like OL: 12 wins Heroes 15
so quite even.

download my rar:

then extract the rar, open vassal, open within vassal the module, load a game continuation of the map of your choice, go to custom map.

Morthai …

I have read through this entire thread, as well as have visited BGG and referenced similar threads.  I really like what you have done with this quest.  Quite frankly, I am not a creative individual … my mind simply doesn't work that way.

I am curious about one thing.  I have seen references to various vassal files, rar files, etc.  Have you considered, or have you already created a PDF of this entire quest?

That is the thing I was looking for most.  I did not see anything within the files section on BGG, nor within the actual thread.  Is this something you are going to do?

Also, after actually re-reading the threads and comparing the dates of individual entries, it appears like you may not yet be completed within everything.  If I am reading this correctly, you are actively working on ACT II encounters, or am I wrong?

Any information you would care to provide would be appreciated.  Thanks in advance.

Act II encounter as well the finals are done and i am working on the additional supply (items, heroes, relics, lieutenants, monsters, skillcards, etc.)
as soon i finished that, I will create a PDF file consisting of all quests and additional stuff. I just wait for the Templates for the PDF files from Adam Sadler.


thanks for your interest. As soon the PDF is ready I will post it here as well.

Thank you very much for the update.  My friends and I eagerly await the PDF.  Figure it will get done way before I ever see FFG's Wyrm expansion.  Heh.

Did you ever completely finish this quest?  Did you find anyone to assist with turning everything into a PDF?  I was just looking for an update.

I am working hard on it - but especially spellchecking is damn time consuming!
Act I should be completely done now, exept maybe minor issues.
Enjoy!

On eother thing … will Part 2 of the PDF contain images of any additional cards that exist for the quest?  Or is there somewhere else these can be downloaded?

Thanks in advance.
