Temple of the Cyclopes - Sellswords
« on: May 26, 2023, 06:45:23 PM »
I realise I have been somewhat lax writing up some of my Sellswords games of late. I have been running a campaign for three of my regular gaming buddies, so I remembered to take some pictures of the latest game.

A harrowing adventure… sounds like fun, even if spiders do give me the creeps.

That is a great looking game! What size is the table?

Nice report and game.  Still a favourite set of rules for me.  Your scenarios help to keep the game fresh.  I might borrow this one.

Some very nice terrain used in the game. Right at the end you mentioned they had found a magic bow, magic ring amd magic bracelets. Now they just have to work out what the magical items actually do!!!

I like that they have to work out what these things do. Is that covered in the Sellswords rules or is it something you sdd into the campaign scenario?

Thank you for for the kind words.

Ethelred - Please feel free!

Vagabond - It's not strictly covered in the rules. I just say that they emanate a "magical aura" and they will need to do a bit of research/experimenting to work out what the objects do. Effectively, I tell the players what they are, but only after the scenario is finished and their PCs have some time to spend investigating properly, consulting magical tomes etc.

blacksoilbill - It's a 3x3 feet table.

Never underestimate the power of a good scenario book. Glad to see sunjester and others giving Sellswords some love
