The main reason that we got involved with CM2 Death's Ride is because of the incredibly iconic Jeff Easiey cover. But the module has solid footing as the PC's pick right up from CM1; "The barony, which is ruled by Baron Sir Maltus Fharo, has sent no taxes, caravans, or messages in several months. A small body of troops sent by the king to investigate has not returned. At this time, Ericall doesn't have the resources to send a large body of troops, so he is asking the characters to go to the barony, find out what's wrong, and if possible, restore contact. The king gives the characters a royal warrant and permission to act in his name." <br />Right so the situation is far worse then the king even remotely suspects with three NPC  villains combining thier strengths; "</span><span style="background-color: white;">Wazor an "Atlantean Mage", Ulslime a cleric of "Death" and  Korbundar the huge blue dragon who have opened a gateway into the literal sphere of Death'.  There is a huge horde of undead bearing down on the PC's.

As the player characters move to investigate, they encounter armies of the living dead and other vile creatures besieging the last pockets of human resistance. The only relief is to find and destroy the dreadful Deathstone, which is responsible for the black cloud, thereby facing the united forces of an evil sorcerer, a powerful priest, and a mighty dragon' <br /></span><span>CM2 </span><i style="background-color: white; color: #202122;"><b>Death's Ride</b></i><span face="sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #202122;"> by </span><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garry_Spiegle" style="background: none rgb(255, 255, 255); color: #3366cc; overflow-wrap: break-word; text-decoration-line: none;" title="Garry Spiegle">Garry Spiegle</a> is a perfect module to couple with the  Adventurer,Conqueror, King rpg!

And that is from 7th level and up. And I'd say on the upperside of the ACK's level because this is such an epic module. CM2 for ACK's is one that could be run using ACK's Heroic Fantasy Handbook. All of the adventure elements are here within CM2 Death's Ride.

And this was a big deal for those of us who had switched up our D&D game campaigns. </span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZyf189MhnYUcdbyeXki8k_wXwS302g8d_UtvfBoRYCLxlJtUlKlVDlqc2K5RV7iBg_aaxf8CSbFAMyDSIBzjj9CAARqH8mvMR0pVVsbfI3BNyjpqKZUX1Q1IWxEgvArubWIfosSzwn7Yo6f_GGVNXak6PbxYLhJkDww1MbOM8rUjaQfPjusqNPYzpwdQ/s1685/dd2-box3-ment-1st.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1685" data-original-width="1354" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZyf189MhnYUcdbyeXki8k_wXwS302g8d_UtvfBoRYCLxlJtUlKlVDlqc2K5RV7iBg_aaxf8CSbFAMyDSIBzjj9CAARqH8mvMR0pVVsbfI3BNyjpqKZUX1Q1IWxEgvArubWIfosSzwn7Yo6f_GGVNXak6PbxYLhJkDww1MbOM8rUjaQfPjusqNPYzpwdQ/w514-h640/dd2-box3-ment-1st.jpg" width="514" /></a><br /><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"> What Mentzer Companion rules brought to the game were new monsters, higher levels, treasures, warfare rules, domain play rules, and more. Suddenly player's PC's could and were expected to rule a kingdom or vassseldom. The player's PC's had kingdoms, church dominations, and more to worry about. And this was hands on rulership for the adventurers. This wasn't a mollycuddle set of rules. Instead the players were expected to have thier hands get dirty leading hirelings and NPC retainers of thier armies from the frontlines. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /><br /></span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibEKrmvjtDd6_D95KNxjMwKUjDNRnGIIRhPr98GoNNU6aLzbtjdKIy9iSEHROVtLeGoAjcpZzEs07EAJh19kwC2vvcaXYxfLqtwh2FMs2Hwd6_GcoLMLlaPG2VzA6Bc4Stf5ndyvr1WQ8V3nV-0XxIggw-XCq6PEv58BAHu4Mtvos18qxG0KIH6Ai6Szo/s1644/dd2-box3-ment-1st-back.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1644" data-original-width="1334" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibEKrmvjtDd6_D95KNxjMwKUjDNRnGIIRhPr98GoNNU6aLzbtjdKIy9iSEHROVtLeGoAjcpZzEs07EAJh19kwC2vvcaXYxfLqtwh2FMs2Hwd6_GcoLMLlaPG2VzA6Bc4Stf5ndyvr1WQ8V3nV-0XxIggw-XCq6PEv58BAHu4Mtvos18qxG0KIH6Ai6Szo/w520-h640/dd2-box3-ment-1st-back.jpg" width="520" /></span></a></div><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><br /></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;">The Companion rules box set was completely different from say Moldvay or Cook in the fact that it spelled out levels 15-25 for PC's. And heavy was head that wore the crown. The Wilderness adventures that were featured in so many Expert adventures & dungeons were the realms that the PC's controlled. Strongholds, wizard towers, temples, etc. became the PC's stock and trade. <br />And the Gods themselves couldn't help you if your old adventuring partner's decided to turn on you. Because party dynamics were very much in vogue in Mentzer's Companion rules. Because the Companion rules set was actually a real step into Advanced Dungeons & Dragons first edition if played right. </span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhy1jY9zpHscd1W_s3_x2PVD16rgC8ELt1-yhKkJECxeOh-c8RTnfzU9tWY1skqK0xIE1H8JFmCu53r1gq6zsztUl8V3_nv-NNTprslFrtohTkyzBtNMrqdLbC887ZRJR_4AqJmpFH0arINRNgBa2bwvU7bym1MB_OM1tEH8cdHfyCk5fji5UDl9dftklQ/s380/AD&D%20players%20cover.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="380" data-original-width="289" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhy1jY9zpHscd1W_s3_x2PVD16rgC8ELt1-yhKkJECxeOh-c8RTnfzU9tWY1skqK0xIE1H8JFmCu53r1gq6zsztUl8V3_nv-NNTprslFrtohTkyzBtNMrqdLbC887ZRJR_4AqJmpFH0arINRNgBa2bwvU7bym1MB_OM1tEH8cdHfyCk5fji5UDl9dftklQ/w486-h640/AD&D%20players%20cover.jpg" width="486" /></a></div><br /><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span><p></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;">Mentzer hit different because when going from Expert into Companion no longer was the X1 The Isle of Dread a place to be explored but a land to be conquerored! Companion had a whole cloth feel of something different because adventuring took on another aspect and marshalling your armies was part of the charm. <br />Because D&D had gone so far mainstream it was a readily available rpg system. So  one could not only get it in '84 from hobby and toy stores. But it was becoming available through Sears & Wards toy catalog. <br />Suddenly the possibilities opened up by the  Mentzer's Dungeons & Dragons Set 3: Companion Rules seemed within reach. Why have just a stronghold when you can have your PC's rule a kingdom! </span></p> <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'> <span class='post-author vcard'> Posted by <span class='fn' itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://www.blogger.com/profile/11243274667834930867' itemprop='url'/> <a class='g-profile' href='https://www.blogger.com/profile/11243274667834930867' rel='author' title='author profile'> <span itemprop='name'>Needles</span> </a> </span> </span> <span class='post-timestamp'> at <meta content='http://swordsandstitchery.blogspot.com/2023/09/osr-commentary-84-one-set-to-rule-them.html' itemprop='url'/> <a class='timestamp-link' href='http://swordsandstitchery.blogspot.com/2023/09/osr-commentary-84-one-set-to-rule-them.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' itemprop='datePublished' title='2023-09-29T22:40:00-07:00'>10:40 PM</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='http://swordsandstitchery.blogspot.com/2023/09/osr-commentary-84-one-set-to-rule-them.html#comment-form' onclick=''> No comments: </a> </span> <span class='post-icons'> <span class='item-control blog-admin pid-1389871235'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=7672684189982389944&postID=7453010720063759501&from=pencil' title='Edit Post'> <img alt='' class='icon-action' height='18' src='https://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif' width='18'/> </a> </span> </span> <div class='post-share-buttons goog-inline-block'> <a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-email' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=7672684189982389944&postID=7453010720063759501&target=email' target='_blank' title='Email This'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Email This</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-blog' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=7672684189982389944&postID=7453010720063759501&target=blog' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=270,width=475");

The video by Grimjim basically covers the most basic aspects of Penney Tower. Penney Towers takes place in alternative & yet all too familar world of a JG Ballard universe. Penney Towers is a world unto itself where it's strange inhabitants have become literal residents and citizens for all time. Because Penney Towers is different every time you play it. </span><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/1vJ-BLp_aC0?si=5WBRPUCtec5nJrPu" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe><br /><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;">First of all when it comes to a physical copy of Penney Tower make sure you've got a copy of a Tarot deck handy. Not only is the Tarot necessary but absolutely vital to getting the full effect of the adventure/resource book's impact that is Penney Tower. Pay attention to the video for vital clues that make up this adventure location that is Penney Towers. <br />And Penney Towers loses itself deeply in the themes of  <a href="https://moordereht.com/product/wretched-new-flesh-second-edition/">The  Wretched New Flesh Second Edition Rpg</a> & JG Ballard's Science Fiction & Fantasy creations. Alienation, the Seventies brutalism asthetic, the weirdness of the Science Fiction, and even the deep horror of the Penney Towers itself. And trust me the horror is right front and center at the level of some of the classic Lamentations of the Flame Princess rpg adventures. </span></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWPV81ngxpEt5K1VO2uH8lkcMXaNFLZE9Cdq3Ir1yQMEeNHI0BUsxVrs7gmYuv61jUwdsTplCRpi_D9ZfD9wTZT9nxzLlJ8iYEuQp8T17oTEbEosRa-1T__zbEoeYEJ3BqBIe0RcC0rQ0KWRJMXGSYsjvUd09JgMUCT2E6siks3I9P1dp2DWggGMdoQJU/s2550/Flesh-cover1.webp" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2550" data-original-width="1650" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWPV81ngxpEt5K1VO2uH8lkcMXaNFLZE9Cdq3Ir1yQMEeNHI0BUsxVrs7gmYuv61jUwdsTplCRpi_D9ZfD9wTZT9nxzLlJ8iYEuQp8T17oTEbEosRa-1T__zbEoeYEJ3BqBIe0RcC0rQ0KWRJMXGSYsjvUd09JgMUCT2E6siks3I9P1dp2DWggGMdoQJU/w259-h400/Flesh-cover1.webp" width="259" /></a></div><br /><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;">Penney Towers could be an alternative Wretched New Flesh second edition setting or simply another universe intruding on the reality of Aviladad. And it's the latter that we'll be going with. And Zonetec would have an absolute field day with Penney Towers. And a party of Zonetec enforcers might not make it out of the towers. <br />And then the next question becomes could they?! <br />If the reality Penney Towers London intrudes on the time period of Wretched New Flesh then the weird Seventies Ballardarian vibe of the place could begin to infect reality. Slowly the 'weirdness bacteria' of the Towers begins moving out into the surrounding neighborhoods. <br />While Wretched New Flesh second edition rpg is weird Penney Towers takes this weirdness is a whole other level. Because each and everytime it's a literally different place. <br /><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"> Penney Tower By J.G. Desborough is well layed out, the fonts are easy on the eye. And the themes are creepy enough for many different gamers and hobbyists to really get an idea for this wacked out adventure location. James does an excellent job bringing his flair for Ballard and translating it into a full on Seventies world unto itself called Penney Towers.And for the Red Room crowd who loves thier Science Fiction and fantasy different grab this one! Well worth the 10 dollars and Penney Towers isn't someplace to stay but it may just become your PC's home. </span></div> <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'> <span class='post-author vcard'> Posted by <span class='fn' itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://www.blogger.com/profile/11243274667834930867' itemprop='url'/> <a class='g-profile' href='https://www.blogger.com/profile/11243274667834930867' rel='author' title='author profile'> <span itemprop='name'>Needles</span> </a> </span> </span> <span class='post-timestamp'> at <meta content='http://swordsandstitchery.blogspot.com/2023/09/osr-review-commentary-on-penney-tower.html' itemprop='url'/> <a class='timestamp-link' href='http://swordsandstitchery.blogspot.com/2023/09/osr-review-commentary-on-penney-tower.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' itemprop='datePublished' title='2023-09-29T17:13:00-07:00'>5:13 PM</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='http://swordsandstitchery.blogspot.com/2023/09/osr-review-commentary-on-penney-tower.html#comment-form' onclick=''> No comments: </a> </span> <span class='post-icons'> <span class='item-control blog-admin pid-1389871235'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=7672684189982389944&postID=1471909527952201429&from=pencil' title='Edit Post'> <img alt='' class='icon-action' height='18' src='https://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif' width='18'/> </a> </span> </span> <div class='post-share-buttons goog-inline-block'> <a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-email' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=7672684189982389944&postID=1471909527952201429&target=email' target='_blank' title='Email This'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Email This</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-blog' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=7672684189982389944&postID=1471909527952201429&target=blog' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=270,width=475"); return false;' target='_blank' title='BlogThis!'><span class='share-button-link-text'>BlogThis!</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-twitter' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=7672684189982389944&postID=1471909527952201429&target=twitter' target='_blank' title='Share to X'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to X</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-facebook' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=7672684189982389944&postID=1471909527952201429&target=facebook' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=430,width=640"); return false;' target='_blank' title='Share to Facebook'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to Facebook</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-pinterest' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=7672684189982389944&postID=1471909527952201429&target=pinterest' target='_blank' title='Share to Pinterest'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Share to Pinterest</span></a> </div> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-2'> <span class='post-labels'> Labels: <a href='http://swordsandstitchery.blogspot.com/search/label/Grim%20Jim' rel='tag'>Grim Jim</a>, <a href='http://swordsandstitchery.blogspot.com/search/label/J.G.%20Desborough' rel='tag'>J.G.

Most of the land's dungeons have been plundered, and monsters have been driven from all but a few of the civilized dominions. Prosperity reigns throughout the land now, which is just how the rulers want it. The government is stable, and day-to-day life is routine. Prospects for adventure, however, are minimal. Then comes word from the north: the empire of Alphatia has claimed the vast lands of Norwold, and has appointed a king to rule over those lands. This monarch is in need of steadfast characters to administer the many dominions that may be carved from the wilderness of Norwold!" Anyone worth thier salt knows that this is BECMI's fabled Mystara. But how could CM1 Test of the Warlords by Douglas Niles be used with the modern clones such as Adventurer,Conqueror, King rpg?!Because CM1 was written for the Dungeons & Dragons Champion Box set then we're fading into ACK's Conqueror phase of PC level requirements. </span></span><span style="background-color: white;

font-size: medium;"><span>The 2d6 Space Western has been a favorite at our table top now for over a year now. Rogues, scholars, bounty hunters, and mad men have all been met at the crossroads of the Clement Sector. The game setting runs the gamit from exploration to full on criminal enterprises that our group has played through. The Clement sector book is six hundred & seventy three pages long!The Clement Sector has been a very expansive campaign setting for our Cepheus Engine rpg action. <br />There are a couple of reasons that the Clement Sector has been one of our go too Cepheus Engine settings. First there is the fact that there's plenty of room to drop in real exploration. Second the fact that the Clement Sector is a humancentric setting. There is alien life but it's mostly of the alien animal lifeform variety. The story behind the Clement sector is the fact that it is cut off from the Earth home world. The blackness around the sector is literally unexplored and there's plenty of room to add in your own stamp. </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #1a1a1a;"><span> The Clement Sector had been attached to the Earth Sector before the wormhole (or "Conduit" as it was called) the wormhole collapsed and the Clement found itself left to fend themselves, separated from Earth</span></span><span face="soleil, Hevletica, sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #1a1a1a;">. And this has led to the </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #1a1a1a;">The Clement Sector being divided by twelve sub-sectors with 335 planets (with many planets or sectors haven't actually been discovered). These planets are unique with thier own histories, cultures,militaries, etc. And there are plenty of room for unique and undiscovered planets or entire subsectors. And this is the beauty of the Clement Sector the setting feels like a Space Western with the blackness of space that could literally hold anything.  Now I've reviewed the Clement Sector rpg before on this blog but it's an awesome variation on the 2d6 Cepheus Engine Rpg. </span></span> <div style='clear: both;'></div> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'> <span class='post-author vcard'> Posted by <span class='fn' itemprop='author' itemscope='itemscope' itemtype='http://schema.org/Person'> <meta content='https://www.blogger.com/profile/11243274667834930867' itemprop='url'/> <a class='g-profile' href='https://www.blogger.com/profile/11243274667834930867' rel='author' title='author profile'> <span itemprop='name'>Needles</span> </a> </span> </span> <span class='post-timestamp'> at <meta content='http://swordsandstitchery.blogspot.com/2023/09/osr-commentary-on-order-clement-sector.html' itemprop='url'/> <a class='timestamp-link' href='http://swordsandstitchery.blogspot.com/2023/09/osr-commentary-on-order-clement-sector.html' rel='bookmark' title='permanent link'><abbr class='published' itemprop='datePublished' title='2023-09-28T23:05:00-07:00'>11:05 PM</abbr></a> </span> <span class='post-comment-link'> <a class='comment-link' href='http://swordsandstitchery.blogspot.com/2023/09/osr-commentary-on-order-clement-sector.html#comment-form' onclick=''> No comments: </a> </span> <span class='post-icons'> <span class='item-control blog-admin pid-1389871235'> <a href='https://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=7672684189982389944&postID=3561451640485243733&from=pencil' title='Edit Post'> <img alt='' class='icon-action' height='18' src='https://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif' width='18'/> </a> </span> </span> <div class='post-share-buttons goog-inline-block'> <a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-email' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=7672684189982389944&postID=3561451640485243733&target=email' target='_blank' title='Email This'><span class='share-button-link-text'>Email This</span></a><a class='goog-inline-block share-button sb-blog' href='https://www.blogger.com/share-post.g?blogID=7672684189982389944&postID=3561451640485243733&target=blog' onclick='window.open(this.href, "_blank", "height=270,width=475");

We've got the Kosmos68 Soviets going head to head with some of the American and Japanese concerns. This has give me as one of the DM's a bit of a leg up when it comes to picking and choosing which ends of the setting are hitting the interstellar stage. <br />And with <a href="https://bundleofholding.com/presents/2023Hostile">the Hostile bundle of Holding going on</a>. The players are more in line for getting in even more suppliments for Hostile. <br />This isn't a bad thing it just means that as a DM I've got to think on my feet. <br />And it also means that Zaibatsu is going to get even more of a work out at the table top level. There are three reasons for this. Fast PC generation, quick combat, and lethal rules. <br /><a href="https://kosmos68com.wordpress.com/intro/">The Soviets</a> have thier own section of space carved out but they have secrets. From the fact that they've been dealing with an alien threat to the fact that they've got psionists. The Soviet corporations are barely making ends meet. <br /><br /></span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbQDkHvirF9DeLMzsQ7uniKQYidemA8l3GSaOvCGFWTbEFatE-brGTg1oySdQYOh1Wy2YadmLLrdO-cc5kk_BM9Gl0AjK7AKCJ5rirC61j9Q26xInefBl4lswq6HgMP7st7WbOzTxaw3qDOPA-qXtihNBTG068kUJJCeTEB2dv9hQAa5BSenjCs3INJTg/s453/cover-artwork-v1.1.webp" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><img border="0" data-original-height="453" data-original-width="302" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbQDkHvirF9DeLMzsQ7uniKQYidemA8l3GSaOvCGFWTbEFatE-brGTg1oySdQYOh1Wy2YadmLLrdO-cc5kk_BM9Gl0AjK7AKCJ5rirC61j9Q26xInefBl4lswq6HgMP7st7WbOzTxaw3qDOPA-qXtihNBTG068kUJJCeTEB2dv9hQAa5BSenjCs3INJTg/w426-h640/cover-artwork-v1.1.webp" width="426" /></span></a></div><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"> <br /><br /></span><div><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><br /></div><div><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;">The player's PC's have already faced down several deadly threats.

Cartha Radu, brother to Anton Radu (the leader of the Veiled Society), was thinking. "Today is the day," he said to himself. "Today is the day to bring my plan into action," Cartha smiled. Below his tower window, the cityfolk slowly awoke. Today was the Festival of Lucor. The goodwives flung open their shutters to the morning. Fishmongers and hawkers heartened their cries.

Some stretched their cramped bones, pained by a night on the damp grass. Others polished their swords and armor. With little ado, they packed their small camp and set out on the road once more. The excitement tingled among them, for today they would reach the city of Specularum — the home of their new fortune" </span></i><br /><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;">So the other day I put up on twitter a picture of B6 The Veiled Society by David Cook. Now I've been thinking about this classic module for a couple of days. And there's been a crazy idea in the back of my head. What if  the city of Specularum was a part of an interplanetary society that has been cut off from the rest of the universe by some unknown indimensional event. Or alternative which we might go with is the idea here that the PC's from our <a href="https://swordsandstitchery.blogspot.com/2023/09/tegel-manor-worlds-without-number_22.html">Tegel Manor campaign</a> find themselves with the manor shifting into the city of Specularum. The festival is coming up and the free familes are at it again & new prosepects are out to prove themselves. The Radu, The Torenescu, &  the Vorloi family are separate corporations and family run rivals who control the city. They each have thier own distinctive cybernetics and ways. The mega city has five thousand people within it's gates and is run with 'The Purge' style night of the 'Festival of Lucor'. The city of Specularum is situated within what used to be Italy or near the ruins of Europe. <br />The inns, the encounters, etc. all remain the same because of the fact that atmosphere of B6 The Veiled Society was created as a tourist destination for the ultrarich. The fact that these families are at an urban war with one another has continued for generations.
