Separate included downloads: 'List of All Spells in Vols. 01 & 02'; 'List of all Cults in both books'; 'one coloured map for the main scenario'. "I was one of the Players in the Australian run-through of Ian's campaign, and I had a huge amount of fun. His ideas are a wonderful YGWV take on Old Pavis and the whole 'Grand Plan' idea." Andrew 'Sergeant Barayl' Bean (Chaosium Convention Coordinator in ANZ/APAC) https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/430121/Old-Pavis-The-City-that-Time-Forgot-RuneQuest Main contributors/volunteers will of course be getting links for their copy sent to them shortly if they haven't already Huge gratitude once again to these people, without whom these two books would absolutely not have been possible!!!

If you already have Vol. 01, remember also that it was updated to Vsn 1.5 a couple of days ago on DriveThru, so download a new copy there for yourselves.

Ian A. Thomson Posted April 13, 2023 Author Share Posted April 13, 2023 (edited) Dario is powering through the image enhancements :) Looks very likely that it will be sometime this month that Vol. 02 will be updated to the colour-image version I'm going to do all of the rest of the books with many colour images from now on, to save having to update them later Edited April 13, 2023 by Ian A.

Ian A. Thomson Posted August 8, 2023 Author Share Posted August 8, 2023 Great summary by Nick, so I will post it here: Pavis County & Beyond: Secrets of the Borderlands,The third volume of Pavis & Big Rubble Companion material to be revised and reissued on the Jonstown Compendium covers adventurer creation (inc. family history and local cults) for natives of rural Pavis County and the Zebra Tribe. Four full scenarios follow – The Corflu Connection, Problems with Neighbours, Crimson Shadows Over Prax and Echoes of Evil – with a smattering of ideas for how to link them into your campaign. Next are maps and gazetteers for eight prominent settlements in the Zola Fel Valley: Old Fort, Indagos, Garhound, Ronegarth, Weis, Horn Gate, Sun Dome (Town, not Temple) and Corflu. The book wraps up with twenty pages of room-by-room notes on how the author ran and expanded the classic Borderlands campaign; the Adventures section has more suggestions for how to merge that with a Pavis-based campaign, in which the adventurers become wide-ranging troubleshooters for Duke Raus of Rone. ($18.00 for 254 pages) https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/448641/Pavis-County--Beyond-Secrets-of-the-Borderlands-RuneQuest?src=newest_community 2 Quote ------------------------------------ Former Issaries Inc.

Ian A. Thomson Posted September 3, 2023 Author Share Posted September 3, 2023 The PDFs have just been updated for Vols. 1 & 2 Change notes for Vol. 01: Just after the P.O.D. layout was complete we noticed that the titles for Zebra Stockade, Zebraside and (in one case) Badside were confusing as to which entry belonged to which location. This has been corrected in this final version of the pdf, and an errata note placed prominently in its early pages to clarify what the mistakes were and how to update them. Change Notes for Vol. 02: A number of corrections and clarifications; plus two revised Rubble locations in the Gazetteer - inspired by the creation of the Vol. 04 scenarios. 2 Quote ------------------------------------ Former Issaries Inc.

Ian A. Thomson Posted September 28, 2023 Author Share Posted September 28, 2023 UPDATED PDFS NOW ON THE JONSTOWN COMPENDIUM: VOL. 01: PDF has been updated for the final time. It wasn't going to be replaced again, since it already had an update after the POD was produced. (Due to some errors being noticed literally a day or two after the POD was finalized.) However, since Dario created a new map of the Big Rubble for Vol. 02, we thought we'd put this in the Vol. 01 pdf as well! (So it has replaced the original Players' & GM's versions, one nice and empty, and one with named primary locations.) Likewise the printable handout has been replaced with a blank version of the new map. (Big thanks to Simon Phipp for letting us use his version of the Big Rubble map prior to this point.) VOL. 02: The aforementioned new map of the Big Rubble replaces the GM's Master Map in this book - the one with both named locations and a gazetteer of numbered locations too. We also added a new page at the end, with the cults of Buserian & Lokarnos. These would ideally have gone into Vol. 01 as they are a couple of standard cults for Suntown (as well as Sun County), but I only thought of doing them a week or so ago. There have also been a number of small alterations to information about places in the Big Rubble, made to match the Rubble section of Vol. 04 as it evolves. (AND, 'oh happy joy', all of this was done _before_ it went to POD layout!) :) VOL. 03: The first round of minor error and formatting corrections. 1 Quote ------------------------------------ Former Issaries Inc.
