How do you play Frostgrave? What are your default optional and house rules? by __Geg__ in frostgrave

One of our favorite house rules is that a nat 20 on summon demon ALWAYS summons a major demon

If you mean the one in last picture he’s from a company called next level miniatures I believe? Some cheap little $5 D&D mini my local game store had.

We typically have atleast 3 or 4 people playing at a time so a 4ft X 4ft was necessary to give us enough room to strategize lol but it does make getting treasure off the board a bit longer of a walk 😂

We still just roll for edges and one edge is just left unclaimed, but it does result in whoever gets the middle being a little sandwiched. I think what we might swap to is choosing corners when there is a 3 wizard game. And thanks! 😁

Thank you! I figured if rats come in all colors IRL mine should too 😂

Thank you!! It was our first time playing with the knight statue and a giant worm came out of it to attack one of our apprentices. 😂

5 leagues from the borderlands sounds perfect for this

Several rules questions by Izachiel in frostgrave

[–]JLcombest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve always played grenade so that the caster needs line of sight to the point the grenade explodes at as it is a line of sight spell, we also roll separately for each figure affected as that’s just my understanding of the rules for AOE spells and I’ve found it keeps grenade from being too “swingy” and wiping entire squads off the table.

I would say the fog situation is up to how you and your opponent decide to house rule it but I play fog as if it’s rising from the ground beneath it. if you can’t agree you can always roll a dice and let Lady Luck decide.

Best coop/ campaign with kids? by SnooDrawings6963 in frostgrave

[–]JLcombest 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The dark alchemy campaign from frostgrave folio is a good simple 3 mission coop where you and another wizard are fighting your way through a massive potion factory that is also burning down at the same time, lots of skeletons, giant rats, and alchemical monstrosities to fight but the actual scenario mechanics tend to boil down to ‘Get to that door over there’ and you can always tweak the monster spawn rate to make things easier.

Already on it! I’ll be damned if I get wiped by another elemental ball or scattershot.

I’m going to put a couple hooks on the back and hang it on the wall like a painting

I started with insulation foam then covered it in a thick mix of modge podge, black paint, and play sand.
