Aihrde: An RPG Setting from the Makers of Castles & Crusades

Created by Stephen Chenault

Aihrde, a world heavy with the stains of time, where the bold stand upon the ruins of time and plunder the wealth of dragons and kings.

Latest Updates from Our Project:

A new version of the Codex is here!
over 10 years ago – Fri, Jul 17, 2015 at 06:38:57 AM

Greetings everyone! 

Today we have an *almost* completed version of the Codex of Aihrde for you.  All the art is in and all the holy symbols.  It needs a few more reads/proofs/edits by our staff and editors.  But as far as writing this puppy is done.  All attention in that regard now moves to the Players Guide to Aihrde.

If you have already downloaded the beta version of the Codex, then you should be getting a notification from OBS that there is a new version available.  If you haven't used your download yet from last time, just use that and it will give you the latest version. 

In the meantime, if you want to fill up on other goodies, we are having a July Blow Out sale in our store. You can save up to 50% on your entire purchase. Details are on the front page of the store, but basically, if you order anything you save and the more you buy, the bigger the savings. Order $100 worth and your cost at checkout will be $50! So be sure to check it out before it ends tonight (Wednesday) at midnight!

Thanks for your time,

The Troll Lords

Aihrde Kickstarter Update
almost 11 years ago – Sat, Jun 27, 2015 at 11:09:33 PM

Greetings From the Dens,

We are way overdue for an update on this project. Apologies all around! But rest assured we've been hammering away. We are almost done. Before we jump in, be sure to sign up for our Mailing List here, for a free digital copy of Shadows of a Green Sky and our twitter account for all the latest from Steve's desk and a Free digital copy of Pot of Bones!

Here's the quick and dirty:

The Codex of Aihrde is slated to go to the printers on July 20. It is complete, EXCEPT if this one picture gets done in time I'll swap it out, but if not, we proceed as is.

The Players Guide to Aihrde is in layout, though some needs editing. The spell section is complete but for a spell created at the table the other day.

The Map is complete. The smaller version, 24 x 36 that goes to the C&C backers is at the printers now. The two large maps, 27 x 39 go to the printers on July 20.

C4 Harvest of Oaths. We'll be back on track on this in the first week of July. Steve got pulled into Aufstrag and it proved more than he could do, writing about the depths of that nightmare and then the Darkenfold.

C5 Falls the Divided will follow hard on the heals of C4.

World Map is finished and goes to press on July 20.

Darkenfold Map needs to be blown up and the fixes from the World map ported over (a river was misnamed and one was just wrong.

Inzae primer is waiting its turn for editing.

That should about wrap it up. As you can see we've been hard at work on it and we are in the final stretch.

Would you answer a question for us?

Greetings everyone! 

We apologize if a lot of you get this more than once, we have tried to be very good about not spamming folks, but we want to make sure that everyone gets this question, because it's important to get a gauge of your interest.

Many moons ago and for many moons, Troll Lord Games used to run Troll Con, a convention for all things Troll.  Back then it was mainly Castles & Crusades, and we would have a small, but great, turnout. 

We are thinking of doing it again!  And what we wanted to know is if people would be interested in coming.  So we have a very simple, one question poll that we would really appreciate if you would fill out for us. 

Again, sorry if this reaches you more than once and we don't want to bother you, but we really hope you'll want to come!

Thanks,

The Troll Lords

World of AIhrde Kickstarter Update
almost 11 years ago – Fri, Jun 12, 2015 at 07:58:52 AM

Greetings from the Dens!

We have completed the Aihrde Maps for the Lands of Ursal, also called the Cradle of the World. These are the lands that surround the Inner Sea and the Ursal Tal, and are those covered by the Codex of Aihrde.

You should have received a copy of this map last week, however, it was in need of cleaning and updating. We are now done with that and the near to final copy is in your hands...well your digital hands, or rather it will be when you get your messages and the download link.

Enjoy.

We are printing off some test copies to see how the font size works. There is a great deal of material in here and we want to make sure its legible. We'll take these to the North Texas RPG Con this weekend and get some or your thoughts and opinions on readability etc. etc.

But for now enjoy the sprawling map of the Lands of Ursal and be sure to check out RPGNow and Drivethru RPG for our latest crazy monkey troll sale!

We're moving on up!

That was part of some theme song from the 80's and it is stuck in my head but it seems to fit.  We are moving right along on all Aihrde items.  First up, we have another version of the PDF for you, so look to your emails soon for that.  The PDF and the print version aren't quite at their final phase, it lacks just a bit of art and some locales submitted by a previous KS. 

Also, the maps are just starting their major overhaul.  Can't wait for that, it's going to be really amazing I think.

Thanks so much for your continued support and be sure to check out your email or your OBS account for the latest updated version of the Codex.
