I intend to start a campaign using the old Borderlands supplement but modifying and exapanding on it. Would any of the scenarios in Jonathon Webbs Sandheart series be adaptable to this?
p.s. I’ll be using the Questworlds system, if that makes a difference.
Sorry to report that my HeroQuest game at Glorantha Con had only one person show up, and so wasn’t run. Only one person actually bothered to officially cancel out of the four who didn’t show. So no representation of QW/HQ at Chaosium Con this year.🙁
Being an extremely stingy person I ask the following question; will it be on sale at this price at Chaosium Con? I notice the last day of the sale is the same as the first day the Vendor’s hall is open and thought I might save on postage if that is the case.
The previous experience rules for barbarians and mercenaries were simpler and didn’t involve going into debt, which makes me wonder why the rules for apprentices were so different.
Another approach would be to subtract the number rolled (if successful) from the perception check. Or, to preserve the lower is better trend, the difference between the successful roll and the skill level. .
For those interested, here’s another first edition on eBay: https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2499334.m570.l1313&_nkw=prince+valiant&_sacat=2543
I regret to have to inform you that the reprint has already occurred a few years ago, and the game is again out of print. Here’s a link to a first edition copy (paperback with black-and-white art) for sale on eBay.

I’ll soon be starting a game of Questworlds for Doctor Who, and I don’t think that powering up is appropriate for that setting. Would awarding extra Story Points be a viable alternative?
