Title: Ashes of Middenheim
Post by: Zorren on June 02, 2005, 07:29:10 AM: First of all hello to everyone. :)

Has anyone got Ashes yet?If you have got it is it any good?(please dont say no) :o

I'm really looking forward to getting it and starting a second edition warhammer campaign.

also anyone got any news about Karak Azgul? is it an adventure or sourcebook?

And I'll be running WFRP in a few hours. Joy!

Post by: Spriggan on June 02, 2005, 07:42:36 AM: We've got a review coming next monday on Ashes by Mr. P, also Fell and Entropy (two of our WFRG reviewers) might have read it as well. I haven't seen the review going up next week since Fell, like me, tend to actualy write them the day before we post them.

I should review Plundered Vaults though. ¬_¬

Post by: Fellfrosch on June 02, 2005, 11:47:16 AM: I haven't read all of Ashes, but I glanced through it before sending it to Mr. P, and it looks cool. I might have to get it if my email WFRP group lasts that long. I was quite impressed with Plundered Vaults, though (review coming in two weeks, after Ashes of Middenheim). I haven't heard of Karak Azgul--is it on their site?

By the way, Zorren, welcome to the forum. Make sure to introduce yourself and read the FAQ, both of which are in threads in the "Site News" section.

It seems to be the dwarf keep mentioned in either a WD article or the dwarf army book as a major orc/dwarf battle.

I would really appreciate it being pushed back...at least a bit. I've read it and can evaluate it, but the review will be better given a bit of time. I hate to blame the accident for the tardiness, but my schedule was completely changed by it and is only now getting back to a semblance of normal.

I'm really sorry about this.

Post by: Spriggan on June 03, 2005, 01:37:15 AM: Sure it shouldn't be a problem, just let us know when you're planning on haveing it done so we can slip it into our schedule.
Title: Re: Ashes of Middenheim
Post by: Mr_Pleasington on June 03, 2005, 01:47:05 AM: My goal is to have it written by Monday. At worst, Tuesday.

Post by: Fellfrosch on June 03, 2005, 03:56:12 AM: I'll have Entropy do a review of the Character pack, and push you back a week. No harm done.

We may have to convince our RPG group to play this instead of Ebberon or SW once my HU game is done.
