	Description Edit \| History

Belongs to the Runebound Series.

From the Fantasy Flight Games Website:
"The dark lords are gathering, ancient powers are awakening, and a chill has fallen across the land. It is a time of danger and rising evil. It is a time of fear for the weak and powerless. It is a time of heroes willing to face the darkness and bring the light of hope to a realm covered in shadow.

The world of Runebound is a magical, dangerous world of powerful wizards, noble knights, vicious monsters, and power-mad tyrants. It is a world of great quests and mighty deeds. Above all, it is a world of legendary heroes, and the time has come for you to join them"

Runebound Box Insert HOWTO

In this how-to document, I detail the steps necessary to design a new insert for the standard Second Edition Runebound box. The insert replaces the plastic one which came with the box and makes much better use of the available space for organizing all the game components.

Cities of Adventure, spanish version

First, thanks Warbringer for your amazing work. Y dicho esto, aquí tenéis la traducción al español de las Ciudades de Aventura del amigo Warbringer25. No he usado ninguno de esos programitas chuscos de traducción que tantas patadas dan al diccionario. Lo he hecho "a pelo", así que si hay algún error, echadme a mí la culpa culpita.

Cities of Adventure: Rise of the Dragonlords

This is an expansion for my Cities of Adventure rules which provides new city charts for the base games Rise of the Dragonlords adventure. This expansion is considerably more difficult than the normal Cities of Adventure rules and should only be used by experienced players. This is Version 1.0 of the rules. The fantastic artwork was originally published by Wizards of the Coast in their Dungeons and Dragons product line.
