I have placed the Fallen Elphame campaign on the back burner. I concluded that bringing it to fruition would be too challenging for my skills at this time. In lieu of this I have been planning a game that starts off with B1 and B2, set in a contested area between the territories of the Holy Griffin Empire and the Orcish Hordes. It is pretty derivative, but it should be quite enjoyable I think.
The humanoids of the Caves of Chaos are in this context loosely aligned with the Orcish Hordes and their allies, the Demon Kings of the Worldscar and the Overlords of the Deep. The priest of the Shrine of Evil Chaos and his acolytes are attempting to organize these monsters into a force to sack the Keep. The Caves of the Unknown are, in fact Quasqueton from B1.
The general political situation is inspired by Heroes of Might and Magic 3, with the Holy Griffin Empire being inspired by Erathia (though taking its name from a later game) as well as Lordareon from the Warcraft series being opposed to the Demon Kings of the Worldscar, inspired by the Kreegans and the Overlords of the Deep inspired by the Dungeon Overlords. The Orcish Hordes are of course inspired by the Horde from Warcraft.
I am running this as an open game, so players can drop in and out and there is no set time. I am looking for more players so if interested you can join.
