Primeval Posted January 23, 2018 Report Share Posted January 23, 2018 Great - thanks, that is a big help! Can we perhaps give it a specific name for our campaign to give it more flavor ( i just realized i hate that phrase but can find none more suitable at the moment...).?

The creative juices are flowing better now, although I just named a special rule "Servants of the Black Ring, Unshrouded" and feel like that is the name of a Cradle of Filth song lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt John S Posted January 23, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2018 @Primeval, I might make it so that the Dark Demon's armor is reduced by one or something. Do they get the shards whether they win of lose? I'd rather reward them for doing well than just because. As for a name, what about "Serpent from the South" or "Whispers From the South" or "Whispers from Stygia" ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My main reason for that is I thought I read someone was having the Dark Demon unharmable to start. I like the name ideas - they feel closer than mine, will work on it with these in mind!

Footballzs Posted January 23, 2018 Report Share Posted January 23, 2018 How about “Khitaian Whispers”, though it may end up totally different at the end than what you expected at the start. Sorry, couldn’t resist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primeval Posted January 23, 2018 Report Share Posted January 23, 2018 Oh I just realized....i meant a name for the spellbook, like the book of skelos for example. Good ideas for the campaign though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drmauric Posted January 23, 2018 Report Share Posted January 23, 2018 (edited) FYI In the Scenario Editor when choosing Hero equipment there is no Spellbook. There is a grimoire. I am assuming things didn't quite get translated all the way. Edited January 25, 2018 by drmauric 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So plan on this item being carried over. @all Sound good? I have included it in mine after your post on how it works - thanks! Also, if you guys( @drmauric @Neil Amswych) know what gear you will be giving Ikhmet and Yogah let me know and I will equip them accordingly.

drmauric Posted January 23, 2018 Report Share Posted January 23, 2018 @Primeval I equipped Yogah with the Battle Axe because I needed him to be the heavy hitter. I equipped Ikhmet with the 2 Assassin Daggers from the Stygia box. Don't feel limited by what I did. Feel free to give whatever equipment you want. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Whispered in Stygia" even sounds kind of cool. I used the spell book too, Dan. Oh, there's a book in the stygia(I think) expansion that has a weight of 0 if you'd prefer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Primeval Posted January 24, 2018 Report Share Posted January 24, 2018 Are any heroes getting armor in the first two scenarios? I know its been said to not feel restricted but I would like to be consistent if possible when I equip them for mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In short, it's a dream/lotus/extra planer sequence that involves Thoth trying to capture Atali. He believes her magic will still have some dim effect on the King and plans on using her to distract or bewlider him. If the Overlord wins, Thoth will get some kind of boost or Bonus (maybe even the weight of the years spell from Nordheim or a one time use of Atali's tile). Perhaps it will factor into the final sceanrio B in Aquilonia. Actually that might be perfect (I'm thinking as I'm I'm typing) if Thoth wins the Nordheim scenario, it means you play final sceanrio B and we write her into that scenario. She lures Conan from his palace, away from Zenobia even...i think rather than it depending on victory points, since they decide your level up, we have the result of this second last scenario decide which final scenario you play. Sound good? ...ill think about that and have a conversation with @Ken. Anyways... If it works for everyone, I still like the idea of the final battle being determined by the Yogah of Yag idol, even if it isn't the penultimate scenario. I envision if Thoth wins that scenario, he gets the idol and controls Yogah, who will lead his army north for conquest. Knowing that Conan is the only power that can stop his evil army, Thoth devises a trap to lure him with Atali, which he will spring on Conan at the Ruined Fortress. But first, Thoth Amon must capture Atali. This leads to the Nordheim scenario. If Thoth wins, I will include an optional bonus in the Ruined Fortress scenario that includes Atali. If the heroes win, the Overlord doesn't get the bonus. However, if the heroes win the Yogah of Yag scenario, then the Overlord has no one powerful enough to lead his evil army in conquest of the north. With his hopes of northern conquest dashed, he comes up with a new plan to summon the physical incarnation of set by making an alliance with an eastern sorcerer who has the other half of a shattered amulet. However, Thoth Amon knows Conan has foiled him in the past, and he is determine to be prepared this time. So before he invites the eastern sorcerer to the Streets of Khemi, he enters a dream world and tries to capture Atali. This leads to the Nordheim scenario. If Thoth wins, I will include an optional bonus in the Streets of Khemi scenario that includes Atali. If the heroes win, the Overlord doesn't get the bonus. In summary: 1. Victory Points only determine the level up. 2. Yogah Idol scenario determines the final battle. 3. Nordheim scenario determines whether Thoth gets an Atali buff in the final scenarios. Thoughts? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Primeval Posted January 24, 2018 Report Share Posted January 24, 2018 I still need to finalize character equipment (mainly armor) and create at least one more special event for the event tile, and of course playtest - but here is my scenario as it stands; I expect to begin trying it out in the next few days. The Fate of Yag-Kosha 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drmauric Posted January 24, 2018 Report Share Posted January 24, 2018 (edited) @Primeval Probably no armor in mine. But I may be swapping out one of Inkhmet's Assassin Daggers for a Parrying Dagger. And I'm excited to see those scorpions! I was wondering if they would get used. Edited January 24, 2018 by drmauric Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That works for me. And are still going to add in the potential bonus gems? Those can be easily implemented at the end of each scenario in a brief description. Doesn't matter to me, but I think the little progression elements are fun. So what is the plan for the Dark Demon? Are we going anything special with him? He's just kind of present in mine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
