The 4th Printing This is our fourth printing and represents the first real substantive changes to the game . . . but nothing so much as to make earlier printings obsolete. In the 4th Printing you will find a revised Barbarian. The Barbarian lacked proper balance in the game; we ve worked hard to address these issues. Also, the Illusionist class is given a might jolt with over 45 new spells added to their spell roster. You ll get far more traction out of these spells and make illusion a real part of your game. Also we are touching up the Monk class, changing the presented material to better reflect different styles of hand to hand warriors.

Wicked Cauldron (Castles & Crusades, No. A3)

Leave the world behind, cross the ever turulant Dreaming Sea in seek of the legendary Forsaken Mountain, for here, upon the ruins of time lies the vessel of souls! A high level adventure module for Castles &amp; Crusades! For the first time in many long years a cold wind blows from Aufstrag. The Ahargon Den, The Great Maw, the gates of Aufstrag, has opened and a host issued forth. Lord Coburg the Undying, Master of Aufstrag, self-appointed heir to Unklar Dark Heart has sent forth his servants. Rumor spreads across the land, far and wide, that they seek the Vessel of Souls. But all know the legend of the vessel of souls, stolen by a Confessor Knight before the Winter Dark War s end and borne upon a wind of desire across the Dreaming Sea; there the thief set it at the base of the Forsaken Mountain, safe from all hands all those who would misuse it. This vessel, possessed of wondrous power must never fall into the hands of the enemy, for if it does the power in Aufstrag must surely bend its will into the lands of the Empress. Adventure Type: Plane Travel, Dreaming Sea, Some Overland Level: 8-10 Party: 3-5 characters Setting: Aihrde, Portable to Home-brew The Forsaken Mountain follows the adventures in the A series developed by Troll Lord Games, however the adventure can be used as a stand alone should the Castle Keeper desire.

Only the bravest can survive here for one s fear will certainly be one s undoing.

Castles & Crusades A8 Forsaken Mountain

Castles & Crusades A3 The Wicked Cauldron

Adventure Type: Overland, Dungeon 
Level: 4-6 
Party: 3-5 characters 
Setting: Aihrde, Portable to Home-brew 
The town of Ludensheim has grown fat with wealth in the passing years and its citizens become accustomed to the spoilage and ease of life under their lord, Baron Dietbold the Fell Axe. But what brings this new found wealth that so satiates the citizens of Ludensheim while the lands about languish in squalor. Surely, say many, ill gotten gains and tainted wealth have flowed into the coffers of Baron Dietbold. 
Called to seek out the source of Dietbold's wealth and power, one runs the gamut of greedy merchants, corrupt sheriffs, and the diabolical machinations of those who seek conquest of this land. More foulness is afoot in Ludensheim than in all the towns of the Hruesen combined and many a desperate battle will be fought before justice is served. 
From the makers of the Castles & Crusades roleplaying game comes the fourth adventure for heroes of great renown in a war of intrigue and devilish doublecrossing.

Castles & Crusades A4 Usurpers of the Fell Axe

Castles & Crusades A6 Of Banishment & Blight

Adventure Type: Dungeon Level: 7-9 Party: 3-5 characters Setting: Aihrde, Portable to Home-brew  In that time before the All-father warded the world of Airhde, many creatures were already roaming his dreaming creation. These were the Val-Eahrakun. Of that order were the Oonmaukling, elemental lords of staggering power. Unklar, the Horned God, bound one of these oonmaukling to him and set it in a dungeon beneath the stones of despair; there it dwelt in a great temple, upon the edge of the dark lord's vision. Guardians he set there and they watched ever after, waiting in the timelessness of that place.  But that was long ago. Unklar himself now lays in the Void and the dungeon, like so many of his creations, lies in ruins. The desolation of the temple leaves little to chance and its malignant inhabitants have their own desires and goals, often at odds with their one time master.  Beneath the Despairing Stone Plays as a stand alone adventure or as part of the ongoing Road to Aufstrag series. The characters are brought back to the Black Tooth Ridge along its northern terminus in an area many fear to tread or even explore. They will travel far beyond the Black Tooth Ridge both in form and spirit for it is here, beneath the Despairing Stone, where devils and magic dwell whose origin reaches beyond the time of man and dwarf to that of the beginning of creation.  From the makers of the Castles & Crusades roleplaying game comes the seventh adventure in the Road to Aufstrag Series; designed for champions and heroes who must brave a demon's wrath to destroy an artifact of great power.
