It's been a while since I blogged abut anything Frostgrave related, but with the arrival of the second edition, it's time to change that!

I'm sure everyone's dying to know what I think about the second edition, so here you are!

Nice write-up.

A quick question. If one felt that combat was too random and was uninteresting in the first game do the changes help alleviate that?

I like the system but I always felt that combat came down to whomever rolled highest

Thank you for the write-up I can't wait to have a look.  I am still waiting for mine to show up.

Thanks! To be honest I've never had any issues with the combat, so I haven't considered if the tweaked rules make it more 'interesting'. Depends if you use the critical hit rule I suppose :)

Thank you for the write-up I can't wait to have a look.  I am still waiting for mine to show up.

Cheers! It's worth the wait I think :D

Nice write-up, looking forward to our club's order of books dropping and getting back to Felstad (or at least once the wasps have been removed from the hall!).

Mine arrived today.  Well impressed with the content.  I was glad to see more scenarios, the only thing that I would have liked to see the monster from the other books incorporated into one list.  Saying that I am still quite happy.

The ruined tower model in your pictures(plaster wall sections and stairs)...do you know who produces it?  I bought one about 15 years ago at a show and would love to get hold of some more of their terrain but have no idea of the manufacturer.

Hmm, a lot of my terrain is scratchbuilt, and some of it is my mate Giles’. Which pictures are you referring to?

If its the round tower, I think that was a repackaged Hirst Arts kit from Antenoceniti which no longer sells them. Its made of plaster building blocks.
