The Majestic Wilderlands
by zack m. [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 08/05/2019 14:05:35

The product description doesn't ackowledge that there are no hexmaps in this product despite being known to be a hexcrawl. I appreciate the rules and character information, but I bought this on the presumption that I'd have have several hex maps with quest seeds I could use with my campaigns. Instead, I got a S&W supplement with no seeds or hexes. The product description needs to be updated to reflect what is actually in the product. I'm disappointed.

*Edited star rating to reflect change in product description.

I updated the product description to clarify what it is about and how it fits with the rest of the product I offer as Bat in the Attic Games.

Blackmarsh
by David O. [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 09/24/2018 06:38:02

I like the Greyhawk style cover and the Blackmoor inspired content. I'm very impressed with the crispness of the printing. The maps and the text are very clear and easy to read. The Points of Light supplement (from the same author, but different publisher) is fuzzy by comparison and the maps are functional but not nearly as legible. I woud recommend getting the print and pdf bundle as the pdfs include information about linking the Blackmarsh area to the Southlands area in Points of Light and the Wild North area described in the zine Fight On! #3 which, when combined, creates a sizable area to run a sandbox. Highly recommended.

Blackmarsh
by kristiaan l. [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 06/27/2018 01:49:45

I've been an on again off again rpg player for nearly 40 years, and in all that time i have never found exactly what I've been looking for in a "basic fantasy" setting until i discovered Robert Conley's books. I hate to sound like a gushing fan-boy, but these books, Blackmarsh especially, tread that line of "too much-too little" perfectly. You can slip this material in perfectly into your existing campaign or just run it staight off the pages. Love the old school feel and look, love the content, love LOVE the maps love the price. Keep em coming Robert, old grognard's like me cant get enough of this stuff :D

10/10 Would pull an Oceans 11 type heist on the Viz Club again!

City State of the Invincible Overlord, Color Map
by Bruce L. [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 12/21/2017 08:23:11

I have the original hardcopy of this product. Picked it up in the mid-80's, NOS. What a difference color makes!!! This map is gorgeous! I bought the printed poster copy. It is amazing. Looking forward to mounting it on some 3mm cardboard, and then mounting that to some 1/4" plywood.

The details on the maps are superb. It is clear, sharp, and amazing in color... Would love to see Judges Guild produce their other magnificent city maps in full color... I'd buy every one.

This poster map comes in pieces, which is fine. They come folded, not in a tube. You will get a smaller version, on a single page, which is nice. I am tempted to take my other maps into a shop with a large format photocopier, so I can get busy with colored pencils, as I seriously doubt JG will produce the other maps in full color (Tarantis... Hint! Hint!)

The color really brings this map alive. It was inspiring on the brown paper maps, but in color, it takes on new life. Amazing difference. Looking forward to more!... Would love to see the Castle Books, Villages Books, Island Books, and the Temples Book, all done up in color. A lot of work, but I bet they would sell plenty of copies! Cheers!

Scourge of the Demon Wolf
by Raymond W. [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 12/04/2017 02:08:43

A great example of an open-ended sandbox-oriented adventure. Scourge is well-grounded in standard fantasy tropes, and I was worried this would make it generic, but it just ended up making it portable to a wider array of campaign settings. It's not hard for a GM to manage all the different plot elements, but there are enough hooks and background events that the players can go a lot of ways with this. Conley helpfully provides notes about his experiences running the adventure as well as an entire sandbox mini-setting for the adventure to take place in. This is great material that empowers a GM to empower his or her players in an old-school way.

Blackmarsh
by Neil R. [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 09/16/2017 07:32:06

Fantastic setting; love it!

I am enjoying setting very much and have added another setting around Blackmarsh to a game called Astonishing Swordsmen and Sorcerers which is a great game also (in fact my second most favourite setting after Conan D20 Mongoose).

Thought you might enjoy seeing how I have advanced your maps Robert S. Conley (if you are there?).

Scourge of the Demon Wolf
by Asen G. [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 10/26/2016 06:12:06

Excellent, non-linear adventure! The relationships between the main factions are clear, and it requires thinking more than charging in head-first (though if you want to resolve it by charging in head-first...feel free to). I would have liked a bit more description of the various locales, but that's not a big enough ommission to take away a whole star from an otherwise superb adventure...so 5 stars it is!

Excellent sandbox, OSR supplement. Great content, minimal art, short summaries of all locations. Recommended.

Blackmarsh
by Brian I. [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 11/10/2013 16:08:34

An outstanding old school, minimal setting. I've used it several times - it's got just enough meat and flavor to inspire and drive a game, and is light enough that as a GM, I don't sweat getting details wrong.

The map, of course, is great - all Rob's are.

Highly recommended!

Rob Conley shows his sandbox mastery here with a tremendous product that's great for novice and veteran DM alike. Conley gives just enough detail to make the DM's job easier, while allowing enough latitude to make this work as a drop-in product.

Mechanically light enough to be used for any classic D&D clone or cousin, Blackmarsh is well worth not only downloading, but ordering a nice print copy to boot.

Blackmarsh
by Chet C. [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 10/11/2012 23:38:18

Superb! Simply superb! It treads the fine line between Too Much Description and Not Enough Description. There are hexes on the map which are very, very detailed. Other hexes leave a lot to the GM's discretion.

Of course, everything is up to the GM's discretion.

System-neutral, though its D&D roots are visible.

If the download would only include the cover, we could call this a Perfect 5.

Blackmarsh
by James H. [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 07/14/2011 21:22:52

An excellent and largely system-free setting that can easily serve as the jumping off point for a campaign in any system (though the tiny bit of system information included is geared toward D&D). It's also 100% OGC - all of the text, the maps - everything. This means that if you want to alter the document and host it on the web for your friends to download, you can legally do so. This makes it an even more attractive option for a campaign starter, in my opinion, as it makes getting all of your players 'into' the setting much easier and it encourages you to customize it to your taste (frex, I personally re-wrote large swaths of Blackmarsh to better reflect the implied setting of my own favored rule set). Overall, an excellent product!

The map is fantastic quality, with a great deal of adventuring material for plug + play gaming. I've used this product several times already with fantastic results.
