A Shadow Over the Greatwood

ADD TO WISHLIST >
Selected Option:

PUBLISHER NOTE (7/6/20): The original upload had an incorrect map (map 22) which has been corrected. We apologize for the inconvenience.

Trouble is brewing in the Rosewood Highlands. Wild Animals, usually timid and shy around the encroaching wave of human civilization, have become very hostile, attacking with no provocation whatsoever. More concerning is the fact that predators and prey are running in packs together. To top it all off, Old Joby swears he was some kind of beast-man up north of Gabon's Ridge... and then he says a cougar was talking to the other day and then it exploded! (Of course, Old Joby is drunk a lot...)

A Shadow Over the Greatwood is a sandbox adventure for characters levels 5-7 and was written for Swords & Wizards in the Highlands, a Swords & Wizards Rules Variant.

17 specific adventure locations

20+ NPCs, potential allies and foes

70+ New Magic Items

I feel like I'm ripping the author off paying 4 cents per page for this. I already printed it myself but I might buy the book for my conscience. Looking at your other products I guess this is a consistent policy so - good on ya WR Beatty! You must know that "The Best" on tenfootpole has a higher market value than that.

Thanks!! Hope you enjoy it. It’s been a good seller. Bryce’s reviews always help sales and I really appreciate his observations and critiques. I’ve wanted to keep pricing pretty low and consistent…

Thanks again.

Re iterating what others have said, I would love to see what the swords and wizardry in the highlands variant entails - it would be really helpful for other highland type campaigns!

I feel like you need a Swords and Wizards in the Highlands one or two page Primer (with a cool cover) that explains what all of this is, what rules system it is for, and how the pieces fit together. Some of the content seems pretty cool, but I can't figure out what it is for or how you intend for it to be used. Also, some of the blubs are not enticing, "talking exploding cougars and old drunk Jacoby" come to mind.

So what is "Swords & Wizards in the Highlands" and how do we get it? I don't see it listed here anywhere.

Just purchased this and I already have a few others in print from you. Any chance you can make all of your other pdfs with a print option? I feel this would definitely boost your sales especially for people like me that prefer a print option over staring at a screen.

As noted above, Map 22 included in the adventure is incorrectly numbered (it's an early draft) so it will not match the room descriptions. We apologize for this oversight and we will be correcting it soon,

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
