Advanced Heroquest Unpublished Stuff of Terror in the Dark

Dear all,

Past 2nd of November, a great announcement was done by game designer Graeme Davis: He informed in media about he had found in an old disk unpublished material which was finally unnused in the design of Terror in the Dark, the unique boxed expansion of Advanced Heroquest board game, which was written by him and Carl Sargent back in the day.

Mr. Davis is going to publish all such unknown information on his blog https://graemedavis.wordpress.com/, which I encourage all you to read.

He is spliting the information in different chapters, each one in a different post. At the time of this post he had already posted two, but I will try to keep here the full list of all them once they are published, for better tracking:

Advanced Heroquest Part 1: Some Outtakes I Found
Advanced Heroquest Part 2: New Hazards
Advanced Heroquest Part 3: Undead Monsters
Advanced Heroquest Part 4: Dark Wizards
Advanced Heroquest Part 5: Other New Monsters
Advanced Heroquest Part 6: The Quest Machine, Part 1
Advanced Heroquest Part 7: The Quest Machine, Part 2
Advanced Heroquest Part 8: The Quest Machine, Part 3
Advanced Heroquest Part 9: The Quest Machine, Part 4
Advanced Heroquest Part 10: The Quest Machine, Part 5
Advanced Heroquest Part 11: The Quest Machine, Part 6
Advanced Heroquest Part 12: Side-Quests and Cardboard
Advanced Heroquest Part 13: The Monster Tables
Advanced Heroquest Part 14: Magic Treasures
Advanced Heroquest Part 15: New Equipment
Advanced Heroquest Extra Info: The Lichemaster and Me

More Advanced Heroquest Part 1: New Heroes
More Advanced Heroquest Part 2: New Henchmen
More Advanced Heroquest Part 3: New Magic Items
More Advanced Heroquest Part 4: New Spells

(Really nice to see that the author himself informs people about they can find online scanned copies of the game and the expansion instead of paying ridiculous amounts of second hand original copies. Kudos Graeme!! |_P |_P |_P )

I think these are really good news, especially for those lovers of the game who would like to homebrew or expand it with cuasi-official material.

On behalf of all Inn's members, THANKS a lot to Graeme Davis for sharing all this valuable historical documents.

Remark: Graeme Davis accepts comments on his blog, and it looks like that at the time I am writting this post, he is answering questions like some already done by other Inn members (see here), so I think it is a great way to contact him and solve any question about the game, the expansion or the unpublished stuff.

I plan to post another instalment each Saturday until they're all done - probably at least another couple of months.

Fantastic! I have no nostalgia for AHQ but I am happy for those who do to get such a treasure trove of cool treats and surprises for this game. Thanks to the author (and honor to the memory of the late co-author).
