Last game in the Sellsword trilogy: Melchior Black and Professor Vitale race to discover the secret of the Book of Null!

[Paboook]

Loving your batreps, particularly when you play with such nice and easy-going opponent. Looking forward to seeing how you deal with the granite golem

EPISODE 13 - The Well of Dreams and Sorrows!

Mike brings his Dwarven Enchanter to face Melchior Black the Thaumaturge and his warband!

[Radu Lykan]

Looks like fun was had, thinking I need some of those flashing d20s in my life

[Achilles]

They add a little pizzazz to a critical death that I didn't know was missing from my life.

EPISODE 14 - Dark Alchemy - Part 1

I start a new three-game Frostgrave series on Dark Alchemy, the potions and solo-play expansion for Frostgrave that adds an adventure series taking your Warband through the dark underbelly of an ancient Alchemical Factory as it collapses around you!
This expansion is perfect for learning the game if you've never played, or for Campaign Organizers to give a 'leg up' to warbands jumping into an existing campaign with some gameplay experience and treasure hunting against NPCs before they dive in against other wizards.
Part 2 in two weeks!

Neat! It's great to see these scenarios played out - gives me plenty of inspiration for when I get around to playing them

[Coenus Scaldingus]

Ah, there's an idea - hadn't gotten the expansion yet, but something for later entrants to a campaign to catch up a bit sounds interesting, may well have a look at incorporating that. If they're new to the game entirely, giving advice is also a bit easier if you don't actually play against them. Will keep a close eye on the vids to see how much experience and loot you gain throughout. Good stuff as always!

If you watch Owen (another CoOp member)'s campaign, he takes his level 0 Wizard through it right from the beginning. I think in the end he's about Level 5 and has a good chunk of coin in the bank to upgrade soldiers once he's able to go shopping for better soldiers. His first episode aired as well and is linked on my channel.

I think if I were using this to teach the game I'd simply help out rolling and moving for the monsters on the table (as they're all running off a program it's just mechanical so the other person doesn't feel overwhelmed) and use it to teach the basics and advise strategies to get out.

As you're only managing a wizard and 3 Soldiers at any given time, the amount to keep track of is really manageable as well.

[Coenus Scaldingus]

Exactly - a perfect start and with much lower risks than a normal game too. Was glad to see Owen's vid pop up; more data! (And just more stuff to watch, of course.)

Will you be visiting the Breeding Pits by the way? And if so, with the current band or a new one?

Keep up the good work Ash! I just love the frostgrave videos the COOP puts out! Great gaming, great painting and just plain awesome terrain setups!

We're all starting new bands for The Breeding Pits. What's being pulled together for it is going to be really impressive.

So when are parts 2 and 3 going to be done already 

New one on Monday after next. Bi-weekly until it's done.

Keep up the good work Ash! I just love the frostgrave videos the COOP puts out! Great gaming, great painting and just plain awesome terrain setups!

Thanks man! I'm lucky to know lots of really talented people.
