Wilderness Preparation

Comments welcome!

Ooops a wee bit behind here. There's one too many "or"s in the first paragraph
I'm thinking you might want a comma after "the nearest dungeon" in the second paragraph? Or maybe commas surrounding "or transposed"?

Just some thoughts that might be helpful

Before the players can mount expeditions to discover monster lairs, legendary treasures, or territories to occupy, or the referee must prepare a wilderness map.

The referee’s map must always remain unknown to the players! It should minimally include a village or town where the player can base themselves, the nearest dungeon and immediately surrounding territory.

The referee can create an original, hand-drawn map, adapt an existing map or playing board to serve, or generate a map by random determination.

Whatever the case, the map should be drawn, or transposed, onto hexagonal graph paper.

The referee should, ideally, place the major map features thoughtfully, and use random determination to fill out the remainder of the map, as required.

Thanks @rredmond, well spotted! I will make appropriate corrections...

Monster Lairs


These couple of pages bring together three key elements/tables of the game design:

1. The lair (and therefore monster) distribution in the wilderness,
2. The number of monsters in a lair, and
3. The type of treasure found in the lair.

Comments welcome!

p.s. Yes, use of the term "super-normal" is potentially controversial--open to alternative suggestions
