BACKGROUND
These are the final chronicles of The Black Company, the last of the Free Companies of Khatovar ..

Since written history began, our band of brothers has been purchased by kings, queen, lords and ladies, to solve their sordid problems. Contracts have been signed, payments made, we asked no questions and fulfilled our terms.

In our heyday, thousands of men stood together and our skill at arms was legendary. Our name was feared, for it meant death to any that stood in our way. Our true skill though, was using deceit, deception and tactics such our battles crippled the enemy and spared our soldiers.

That is no more.

The conflicts of the last 40 years have finished us. Yes, the Rebellion is long over, the Ten that were Taken have fallen and at the Barrowlands the Dominator was finally sealed away for eternity. Now the cities lie in ruins, gangs roam every street and the many flock to join the Ruinos cult.

Now, at the end, our Company has been destroyed and all but five of us remain.

We have taken a vote, and a few of us have agree to return these chronicles to Khatovar. We wish to see the city that gave us our name, though we have never seen it. Though many now seek our demise, we will not hide the Standard, we will not hide who we are. If we meet trouble, we will have to make do with what little gold and equipment we have.

We expect trouble, we are the Black Company.

Amazing campaign so far: I'd love to play the physical version: is it available to download from somewhere?

This looks amazing! But our group of three cannot play as there is only one color (red) available?

Scytale - We actually started doing multiclass on one of our characters to get the thief's ability in, but it didn't seem to be enough :) But looking forward to seeing more from this ^^

Wow, I totally forgot about this until these comments came up. Thank you. Yes, this is definitely something I want to finish.

stratego_15 - 2a / 2b really needs a thief to find the escape cards and discard them. Without the thief this is hard and thus you can still progress to the next scenario. This is taken from canon campaign and I also found it annoying - too much up to chance.
Jhance - can you give me more context?

My buddy and I have started playing this. We absolutely love that you have made a new campaign and we enjoy that it is longer than the classic Hero Realms campaigns.

The first scenario was really enjoyable, but we are really getting our asses whooped in scenario 2. We play as a wizard and ranger and started out with scenario 2a. But after losing hugely 4 times in a row, we tried 2b once and lost that hugely too. We can't seem to get anything up and running because we keep loosing all our gold, have our champions rendered useless by the elite minions or have them stunned. We also try to keep him from leveling up, because we simply can't keep up with the double flip.

When we play the canon campaigns we play veteran mode and we normally win a scenario at least on the second play through :) We have no knowledge on balancing, but we wanted to tell you about our experience :)

Still, we have enjoyed having a new story to play and we hope that you will finish it at some point too :)

I may have to take a look at this since it's The Black Company. :) One of my favorite series and authors.

I am currently looking for play-testers to give feedback on the cards, mechanics and even text.
