The Darkhold Garrison

February 2018·p. 98

THE SHORT VERSION

The mapped garrison combines waiting warriors, alarms, a concealed pit and a potentially useful set of loaded dice. Its final trap rewards heroes who cooperate rather than simply evade danger, with Hezerek’s Bracers hidden among the destructive sculptures; alternative adversaries allow use of the existing Hammerhal collection.

Return to Hammerhal: Part Three

The concluding instalment introduces the Darkhold Garrison as the last of three optional adventures beneath and around Cinderfall. Gamesmasters are directed to the concealed foldout, while the earlier artefact cards remain useful rather than essential; the new material also supplies a way to carry surviving heroes into another boxed adventure.

Visiting Cinderfall: Red Yugol’s Revelrie

Recovering the three artefacts reveals Red Yugol’s hidden nature and opens a route into the Silver Tower. The rules retain a gamesmaster, adapt adversary decisions and preserve earned skills when transferring the Hammerhal heroes, while making a return to Cinderfall a final departure from the tower rather than a reversible excursion.

Across the Dead Marshes

Six spectral enemies threaten to lure members of the company into the marshes, where failure can make their later injury rolls worse. Surviving with enough fighters brings rewards such as equipment, fearlessness or a bound spectre, turning an apparently simple extermination battle into a test of positioning and survival.
