Sure Phillip Pullman would have something to say too.


This was my thought on influences when seeing the armoured bears

I think the idea guys - a bit like the spider riders - was to allow a variety of different riders to be used..

Spider riders ?? Have I missed these?

Sir would be the chap to answer that for absolute certainty.

Any chance of "adventuring party" instead of having to buy 10 wizards etc?
I have neither the time nor the crayons to explain why you are wrong.

These used to be available. http://www.pendrakenforum.co.uk/index.php/topic,2732.0.html

They are no longer there, and I suppose Leon will be the one to have information on any future plans.

Seem to remember that you could do mix and match with the packs at a small extra cost ?

Think this has been suggested a few times over the years, and is promptly pooh-poohed - although not by Leon, I think - as unlikely to be economically unviable.

Huh! Okay, not aware of these.

I think the problem is you'd need at least a couple of different packs.

What are you playing? Classic DnD? 1 wizard, 1 cleric, 1 thief, 3 fighters. But then, are your fighters in full plate? Chanimail? Studded leather? Does your wizard's staff have a knob on the end?

Or optimised for a more modern game, like Frostgrave or Sellswords & Spellslingers. Each of these would have different requirements.

Everyone would want different things, and I can see why we don't have a Adventurer's Pack.

Is that an important distinction?  :-\

I don't think we've got 10-packs of wizards anywhere?  There's the magic users for each Warband race which are packs of 4 different figures and a stone/talisman type thingy.

We'd like to bring the adverturer pack back, but it'll be once I get the Dungeon rules sorted out and we can repackage that whole section of the site.
