YOU CAME HERE (FOOLISHLY) LOOKING FOR LOOT OR GLORY.NOW, TRY NOT TO FREEZE. Inspired by Arctic lore and the likes of The Thing and The Terror, the Boreal Frostlands are a vast icescape located in the icy North. Its peoples do not have much way of contact with outsiders, and only very reluctantly yield to the notion that there are warmer lands elsewhere. The Frostlands are dotted with ruins, temples both old and new, strange sightings and formidable beings bound in the permafrost– aching for a thaw. Floating in the ice floes at the top of the world, is Iceberg City – where notorious factions struggle for warmth and all compasses point north in a dizzying spiral. What do you get? 40 punch-out modular hexes in cardboard. Heavy-duty GM screen containing hex-descriptions, optional rules, tools, random tables, a mini-adventure and a detail of the Iceberg City. Hand-out poster depicting the Iceberg City and the Permafrost Drilling Platform in heavy paper. Cloth bag. Two pamphlet dungeon modules expanding upon locations found in the hexes (strech goals). Unlike previous sets, the Frostlands unnumbered hexes are DOUBLE-SIDED depicting either snow plains, ice floes, cold water or mountains. If the GM pulls out one of these, they can toss it in the air to determine which side remains up! The Encounter tables in the GM screen will have different options to match the respective terrain.The Boreal Frostlands is a system-agnostic RPG setting in the hex-n-screen format. Highly compatible with traditional Sword-n-Sorcery and Science Fantasy roleplaying games. Includes 40 hexes, GM screen, hand-out poster, cloth bag and two pamphlet dungeons.
