Return to Hammerhal

December 2017·pp. 33–35

THE SHORT VERSION

The Hammerhal expansion adds hireable companions, fresh surface activities and a hidden temple beneath Cinderfall. Its instructions separate player-facing hero options from gamesmaster material and explain how special treasures connect adventures across issues, allowing a party to explore new branches without abandoning progress in the original dungeon.

Your Free Game Cards

The magazine introduces its Christmas cards for three games: an alternative-art Healing Potion for Shadespire, a festive Blood Bowl Special Play card and twelve additions to Shadows over Hammerhal. The latter mix skills, treasures and campaign support, with instructions later in the issue distinguishing cards shuffled into decks from special rewards earned during adventures.

Mercenaries

Mercenaries provide temporary help rather than becoming permanent, fully developing heroes. They cannot use destiny dice or gain normal advances, leave on the next return to the surface and generally retain their own earnings, with specific exceptions for campaign artefacts and excess gold keeping important rewards in the party’s hands.

Visiting Cinderfall

Three new destinations extend the choices made between expeditions. A bastille offers bounties, Conran’s contest trades risk for possible advancement and the Guild of Blades supplies paid allies; additional instructions let a party move between available dungeons while preserving its progress in each.
