In the days of ancient Felstad, vampires kept to the shadows, their small numbers no match for the power of the city's wizards. But when the cataclysm struck, the wizards were destroyed, while the deathless vampires went into a frozen hibernation. Now, as the city thaws, so to do its undead inhabitants. The masters of the night are rising again: reoccupying their hidden strongholds, reforming their old cabals, and finding new victims to serve as their thralls. The destruction of the old city has brought one other boon to the vampires - giant's blood. While giants used to live out of reach to the far north, in the intervening millennium, they have descended on the city in large numbers. Their blood is like an elixir to the vampires, filling them with strength and magical power. A new war is forming between these two ancient races, and once again, the wizards of Frostgrave are caught in the middle.This supplement for Frostgrave: Fantasy Wargames in the Frozen City presents greatly expanded information about the vampires and the giants that occupy the frozen ruins, including rules for vampiric magic and a breakdown of the different tribes of giants. Also included are rules for a new type of soldier, the giant-blooded. These huge men and women have the blood of giants running through their veins, granting them great strength unseen in normal men. Finally, the book contains a section on playing Frostgrave with high-level wizards and includes two mini-campaigns to challenge these experienced spellcasters.

There are many tales of the Frozen City, and not all of them tell of battles between rival wizards. Often, the greatest adventures are those that pit a wizard and his trusty warband against the myriad perils found amidst the ruins of Felstad. This supplement for Frostgrave presents full rules for playing solo and co-operative games in which feuds and skirmishes of wizards take a back seat to the exploration and unlocking of the mysteries of the city. These include guidelines for both dungeon crawls and adventuring in the ruins, new traps, unique random encounters, and four multi-scenario mini-campaigns to get players started. Why should wizards fight amongst themselves? There is plenty of treasure for all and the Frozen City is enemy enough!

Wizards tend to be secretive and solitary, rarely sharing their knowledge, and associating with only a select few apprentices, followers, and henchmen. It is rare that they spend time in the company of other spellcasters, and rarer still that they work together. Now, however, something is about to take place that has not occurred since the great days of Felstad - a gathering of wizards. In this new supplement for Frostgrave, some of the biggest names in gaming turn their creative powers towards the Frozen City, each contributing a scenario and adding their own flair to the game. Featuring scenarios by Alessio Cavatore, Alex Buchel, Andy Chambers, Gav Thorpe, Chris Pramas, Daniel Mersey, Andrea Sfiligoi, and many more, this tome provides a collection of adventures that will pit players against unimaginable foes and challenges, pushing their wizards and warbands to new limits.

Part magical university, part museum, part tourist attraction, the great Collegium of Artistry had flourished in Felstad's final days. Under the leadership of the seemingly immortal Malcor the Mad, the vast complex expanded, with new wings being built wherever they would fit, including up and down the rock face, and even buried within the mountain itself. Visitors called it one of the architectural wonders of the world; the students, who often got lost in its endless tunnels, simply called it ‘The Maze'. With a titanic crash, an immense ice shelf tears free from the mountains that that loom above Frostgrave, revealing the lost Collegium, and the race for its secrets begins. The Maze is known to have contained many rare and unique treasures, and who knows what may have survived... This expanded supplement for Frostgrave contains a host of new adventures, treasures, and creatures to challenge players. It also includes its own, unique campaign and experience system, as well as information about several of the mythical lost schools of magic.

In this supplement for Frostgrave, players lead their warbands into the northern reaches of the city, exploring the ruined temples of the Frozen City to search for the lost secrets of evocation - the art of summoning demons. While the lure of such knowledge is great, few wizards have ventured into this region as it is overrun by barbaric northern tribesmen who have descended from the hills in their own search for treasure. Marking themselves with demonic sigils, many of these barbarians have aligned with ancient powers discovered amongst the temples. Along with a host of new scenarios focusing on the exploration of the temples, the book also contains new treasures, spells, soldiers, and creatures that can be found amongst the ruins.

Long ago, the great city of Felstad sat at the centre of a magical empire. Its towering spires, labyrinthine catacombs and immense libraries were the wonder of the age, and potions, scrolls and mystical items of all descriptions poured from its workshops. Then, one cataclysmic night, a mistake was made. In some lofty tower or dark chamber, a foolish wizard unleashed a magic too powerful to control. A storm rose up, an epic blizzard that swallowed the city whole, burying it deep and leaving the empire as nothing more than a vast, frozen wasteland. The empire shattered, and the magic of the world faded. As the centuries came and went, Felstad passed from history to legend and on into myth. Only a few wizards, clinging to the last remnants of magical knowledge, still believed that the lost city had ever actually existed. But their faith was rewarded.After a thousand years, the fell winter has passed. The snows have receded, and Felstad has been uncovered. Its buildings lie in ruins, overrun by undead creatures and magical constructs, the legacy of the empire's experiments. It is an evil, dangerous place.

For those who seek power and riches, however, it is an unparalleled opportunity, a deadly maze concealing secrets of knowledge long forgotten...This new fiction anthology collects ten stories of wizards and adventures as they venture into the ruins of the Frozen City.

A MIGHTY TOME TO EXPAND YOUR BARONS' WAR EXPERIENCE! The reign of King John (1199-1217) was a tumultuous turning-point in the history of England. Decades of tension with the kings of France boiled over into conflict which saw Normandy, Brittany and Anjou lost. Meanwhile the fractious and restive rulers of Wales sought to exploit any sign of weakness and the kings of Scotland cast covetous eyes on Northumbria. At centre stage was King John, a figure whose distrusting nature made him as ungrateful to his allies as he was spiteful to his enemies. Resentment, hatred and fear pushed many of England's barons into armed defiance, leading to the Magna Carta, an unprecedented compromise limiting royal power. When it was quashed by the Pope, civil war followed. The Barons' War: King John brings these turbulent times onto the tabletop. It updates the Feudal European retinue list and introduces six more factions to the game: the light and flexible Welsh, the diverse and colourful Scottish, the aggressive Poitevins and the proudly disciplined Flemish, as well as hard-bitten professional Mercenaries and the cunning and desperate Outlaws. The hardcover 246 page sourcebook also provides rules and background for a score of the dramatis personae of the story, enabling you to command your troops with the vindictive King John, the chivalrous William Marshal and the scheming King Philip Augustus - or even Robin Hood and his Merry Men. Ten historical scenarios allow you to re-tell the bloody story of King John's reign, from bitter clashes in the Welsh Marches to the king's harrying of his enemies. You can recreate the titanic pitched battle of Bouvines or follow the stages of the climatic battle of Lincoln. Whichever side you take, there will be something for you in the first supplement for the new edition of The Barons' War.

Deep within the Wastlands stand the Oases, bright spots of life and life giving water in the otherwise blasted landscape that dominates these tormented lands. At the heart of one of these Oases lies a broken spire, brought low by the fire and fury of the Dweghom. While the fury might be spent, the fire still rages within its broken shell and from within this raging confluence of the elements steps the Suzerain of a Hundred Hateful Tides, Oyabun of the Yoroni to stake his claim deep in the heartlands of the W’adrhŭn territory. With the Ukunfazane distracted by the nascent revolt among the Cults, it falls to Nangenyua, the Shadow Who Walks, to prevent this culturally and strategically significant W’adrhun territory from being pulled into the ghostly realm of the Reikai forever.
