Ken Posted January 3, 2020 Posted January 3, 2020 (edited) Chronicles of Vengeance "Know, oh Prince, that in the early days of Conan's reign as King in Aquilonia, deep ran the inevitable streams of offense. Real or imagined, in all corners of the kingdom, sulked those whose pride, fortune or self was wounded in one manner or another by the Cimmerian's meteoric ascent to power." These scenarios are meant to be played as a campaign where the players accumulate equipment, spells, and other elements. It follows the solo/cooperative rules laid out in the Monolith Source Book published by Modiphius Entertainment for rules such as Overlord activations, hero targeting, Overlord re-rolls, and allowed skills. Please note that the Campaign rules for Chronicles of Vengeance differ from the Monolith Source Book campaign, The Lost Scrawlings of Skelos. This campaign requires the Conan Core game as well as the following expansions: King’s Pledge Stygia Khitai Nordheim Forbidden Places and Pits of Horror (Modiphius tiles) Perilous Ruins and Forgotten Cities (Modiphius tiles) Chronicles of Vengeance introduces a new archetype: the Summoner. Summoners are Sorcerers who turned to the darker arts. In addition to the standard Sorcerer options, Chronicles of Vengeance offers new printable character sheets in an appendix for Summoners, as well as for playable Demons. Chronicles of Vengeance was written by the Nemedian Chroniclers, a group of fans dedicated to making high quality Conan scenarios. If you enjoy playing these scenarios, please leave a comment letting us know, or feel free to share tales and photos of your adventures.

Footballzs Posted January 3, 2020 Posted January 3, 2020 As one of the testers of this campaign I can attest to its quality, but also its difficulty. This campaign shows that Matt's solo rules are not juts a simplified version of the Conan Adventure mode but can be used to create an immersive and complicated story. I highly recommend this but do be aware that I also recommend you be experienced at playing the standard Conan game. 4
Not Quite Dead Posted January 3, 2020 Posted January 3, 2020 I've had a look at the booklet and it looks stunning! Kudos to the whole team for its really impressive work. If I finally buy the Modiphius tiles, I'll make sure to play these scenarii with my regular players! 5
xiaolong Posted January 6, 2020 Posted January 6, 2020 Sorry for my english, not very good... I am very happy to discover this excellent work. If I have freetime to, I want to translate it in french. Is there a french version existing ? 2

For our last campaign, Whispers from Stygia, someone with the username Chips on the French forum translated. You might want to reach out to him for help/advice. 1
NURTHOR Posted January 8, 2020 Posted January 8, 2020 Looks great ! Thanks for the job and sharing ! What about the French version ? Is it done ? 3
xiaolong Posted January 9, 2020 Posted January 9, 2020 No, it will take a certain time, I have 2 works, and finish to traduce Heroquest first. But I want to translate this good work, so I will share when finished. 2
Keerka Posted February 27, 2020 Posted February 27, 2020 I'm just discovering all the gems hidden on this board, thanks to the KS. This is just fantastic work. It's well written (both lore and rules), with a professional layout, and some gameplay twists that look really promising (can't wait to test summoners!). I would have definitely paid for this - so a big thank you for your passion and the time you invested writing and testing it. Plus, it's an extra motivation to paint the miniatures used in the campaign 😉 4
SmallRealities Posted December 10, 2021 Posted December 10, 2021 Ken, any chance for a lulu version of this? 1

Ken Posted December 29, 2021 Author Posted December 29, 2021 Eventually there will be a Lulu version, but it will be a while. The difficulty is that there is a lot of custom print stuff besides the booklet (hero sheets and cards). I want everything to be professional quality. I found a Lulu-style printer for the cards, but not for the hero sheets. 1
SmallRealities Posted January 5, 2022 Posted January 5, 2022 Have you checked with The Game Crafter? they can usually do custom sizes.
zombocom Posted May 2, 2022 Posted May 2, 2022 (edited) Ok, I've taken things into my own hands and made my own unofficial lulu files (for the book, not the cards/hero sheets), including adding a custom bleed to the covers. Happy to share if @Ken is ok with it? Edited May 4, 2022 by zombocom

Happy to share if @Ken is ok with it? @zombocom I actually created a Lulu version that uses the new solo/coop formatting. There were some serious formatting changes that I believe will make it easier to play and a fancy new Beheading chart. The booklet is in the proofreading process now. I still haven't found a production quality solution for the appendix files. If you have any ideas on that front, let me know. 2
zombocom Posted May 4, 2022 Posted May 4, 2022 NOW you tell me, after I order it! 😂 Unsure on the cards, try The Game Crafter? 1
Ken Posted May 13, 2022 Author Posted May 13, 2022 @zombocom That looks awesome! Did you have to add pages to get it printed as a hardback? Can you show interior pics? The revised version I am working on has updated layout to match the new Tome of Skelos and a few clarifications, but otherwise is the same content. 1
zombocom Posted May 16, 2022 Posted May 16, 2022 @Ken Lulu automatically added a couple of blank pages at the back. It's pretty thin, but works. The main work was adding manually adding bleed to the cover artwork with a clone brush, and adding in the spine. The cover could really do with a higher resolution version of that artwork though, and it's got quite a lot of jpg artifacts. 1
Ken Posted May 16, 2022 Author Posted May 16, 2022 That came out pretty well! I can't wait to hear your thoughts on the campaign. 1
