Have you and your friends ever sat around the gaming table wanting an exciting, perilous dungeon adventure but no one wanted to be the Gamemaster?

This module includes 20 pages of rules for roleplaying without a GM. Crafted for any number of players of all levels, Unbound Adventures is a masterful resource for adventure and exploration!

Rustlers & Townsfolk is packed with over 100 fully developed Non Player Characters designed to fill virtually any role. From vicious outlaw to prospector, lawman to gambler, and many more, your frontier town is ready to be populated in minutes! Plus, what's really great about this product is that each NPC is a separate 3-hole-punched color character sheet, labeled on top and side for easy sorting, with extra areas for you to add your own labels!

Yes, this is certainly the perfect NPC supplement for any GameMaster worthy of his spurs.

Every Inn hearth is ringing with chatter and every guildhall is silently watching and preparing. Nobles are equipping adventuring parties, and religious orders are hiring sword arms to be at the ready. All of this activity centers around one fact: this is the month that the legendary Chasm of the Damned returns. The Chasm is never late; once every 37 years, in this month, a mysterious gorge riddled with caved and populated by strange creatures appears somewhere within 200 miles of the spot in which legend says it originally sat. It stays for exactly 108 hours then slowly fades away...taking with it anyone who does not escape in time.

HURTGEN SURPRISE/101st AIRBORNE AT BRECOURT MANOR COMBO PACK brings the ASLComp gamer to the dark, foreboding region known as the Hurtgenwald, and the village of Strass and its outskirts. There, German troops surprised men and tanks of the 83rd Division in a brutal fight to the finish.

The Kingdom of Jerusalem in 1190 is in dire peril. Saladin’s army has retaken Jerusalem. The crusader army is in tatters. The once-mighty Christian kingdoms of Palestine are crumbling.

In the easternmost provinces of the Christian kingdoms, the fortress of Li Vaux Moise has been under siege for three months. The defenders have tried to hold out, but the fortress is clearly about to fall, and the commander of the Muslim army has requested a meeting to discuss terms of the garrison’s surrender.

But there are dark forces at work here far greater than any mortal army. Ancient evils from the wind-swept deserts stalk the stone walls, hungry for blood and power. Terrible, mind-shattering secrets from beyond the stars lie ripe to be exposed. Horrors beyond the comprehension of both Christian and Muslim threaten to devour them both – or force them into an unlikely alliance.

This full-length adventure for Cthulhu Live 3rd Edition places the players in the roles of the besieged Europeans and the Muslim ambassadors. Amidst their doom and desolation, they will face betrayal, intrigue, and a desperate fight for survival.

This game opens up the skies of WWI for a new flying adventure. Fans of the WWII Down in Flames games will quickly learn the new rules and enjoy the new decisions and options offered by the new game. New fans will be up and flying within 15 minutes of reading the rules.

Players customize every mission by selecting the leader and number of wingmen they lead into combat.

All the famous aircraft are included: Nieuport 17, SPAD XIII, Sopwith Camel, Albatros DIII, Fokker Dr. I, and Fokker DVII. Action cards such as the Chandelle, Stall Turn, and Side Slip re-create the feel of WWI dog-fighting. Game supports two or more players.

The heroes have learned the identity of the evil that plagues Korvosa—the vile remnants of an evil dragon who once ruled much of Belkzen as a sadistic warlord. In order to defeat him again and save both Korvosa and the queen, the PCs must journey deep into the orc-held lands of Belkzen and brave the haunted reaches of Castle Scarwall, once the dragon's seat of power. Somewhere deep inside waits the holy weapon Serithtial, the sword responsible for his defeat hundreds of years ago. Only on its edge can the dragon be driven from the world.

This volume of Pathfinder also features a gazetteer of the brutal lands known as the Hold of Belkzen, a presentation on Zon-Kuthon (god of darkness and pain), and several new monsters native to Belkzen and the haunted depths of Castle Scarwall.

In every nation, for all the eons of history, there have been those that stand a watch, who fight for those who remain blissfully unaware of the need for battle. Combat Missions features fifteen challenging assaults against a wide variety of seemingly-unrelated foes. These missions are ideal for one-off inserts into your existing serial, or run in a series. In the Combat Missions campaign option, your agents face off against a sinister conspiracy, brought to light through the apparently unrelated events, and they must bring it down before the conspirators bury them.
