[Quest Pack] [6 Quests] - Mound of the Beastmen

[Kurgan]

A good reminder that the orange dice called for by this fan quest pack differ from the custom dice (in terms of symbol distribution) commonly available online from homebrewers. Around 2013, the German site that commonly sells them (and others imitate the basic design) altered the dice. You can find more info on this thread.

Basically they became slightly weaker for attack and twice as strong for hero defense.

So, Mound of the Beastmen is on a page called "The Dark Stone TRILOGY". Does this mean there are 2 other quest packs?

yes, but never written or never released
