Dark Necropolis - A WHQ Adventure converted for AHQ

Postby Dieterdg84 » July 6th, 2023, 6:02 pm

It's time for our Heroes to travel to the Land of the Dead!
I finally finished converting the WHQ Catacombs of Terror expansion adventure to AHQ.

The adventure comes with a pre-written travel phase on how they got there. In WHQ this was just plain text based, but I felt like adding a little extra.
I made a bunch of custom tiles for this adventure, but the whole thing is playable with the original AHQ tiles aswel.
I have taken into account the number of tiles that come with the original box.

Some preview pages:

Warning: Playtesting is still ongoing, so changes to this adventure might happen in the near future.

If anyone is giving it a go. Please share your thoughts and pics! :D

Thanks! Glad you like it. I was really impressed by your modern AHQ tiles as well. What tools do you use to make the art?

Just finished all the tiles for tihs campaign. Ready for some playtesting with my playgroup ;)

After some playtesting I added quite a bit of my own content to this Adventure book over the last few weeks.

Some of the changes:
- A new Between Expedition campsite system to work with The Land of the Dead.
- Extra rules to add dungeon counters to the main adventure.
- Fate point reward system added.
- Fixed quite a lot of typos and grammatical errors.
- Added 4 new randomized sidequest Adventures which allow coop or solo play.
- 4 new hazard rooms to use during the sidequests.
- 4 new "boss" fights with their own special behaviour roll tables.

Here's a little preview of some of the pages below:
