Tips on using Zagyg campaign setting

lumin · Post by **lumin** » Tue Dec 23, 2008 9:59 pm

I just received the core books with Yggsburgh for my birthday last Sunday and am loving it. I think I've just about got the rules down, and am ready to build a campaign using the Castle Zagyg setting.

So where do I begin? The book is absolutely a labyrinth of ideas, culture and adventure hooks.

How did you start your adventure in this setting? Should my characters start in the main town itself, in a thorp, or at the Outs Inn? If you started in a village, what did you do about equipping your characters with initial combat equippment since most of the smaller towns are not equipped with weapon/armor-making blacksmiths?

Some of the swords at the blacksmith in Yggsburgh are insanely expensive, so what would be a creative/realistc way start your characters with equipment?

What are some plots you have developed in your games surrounding the Zagyg setting?

Check out the archived Castle Zagyg subforum, there is a ton of stuff there to read up on.

Yep. Copy it too, last I heard the forum was going to be deleted, eventually.
