The Inheritance

This is the second, 1st Edition WFRP scenario, that I ran for my son and his three friends, and thus continues on from where the previous one ended. It is written with the actual events of the gameplay in the first scenario in mind, making it very bespoke in nature, as will be clear in […]

To Rise Above the Machinations and Lies of Weaker Men

In the Spring of 2405, there is much to be discussed in Tilea. As well as debates in council halls, princely courts, army councils and even lowly alehouses and taverns, letters fly hither and thither across the realm, to and fro between princes, lords and generals. Most of these are private, their contents known only […]

He said they needed no distractions, and besides, a gentle ride until nightfall […]

Tilea Campaign, Part 45

A Strange Vessel. Near Palomtrina, North-East of Remas After three hours of blessing the dead, praying with the wounded and praising the soldiers for their brave service and all this immediately after commanding his army in battle against a veritable horde, his holiness Bernado Ugolini was beginning to flag. When a messenger begged for an […]

THE BATTLE OF PALOMTRINA, PART FOUR: CONCLUSION

As the strongmen loped away, one shouted: “If we don’t stop it, everyone in Remas could die!” Shamed and angered in equal measure, they all stopped running, turned around and, a little out of breath, hefted their weapons to try again. Caught up in their own concerns, they did not notice the bravi emerging through […]
