At least I never found a campaign book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nolgroth Posted May 25, 2009 Report Share Posted May 25, 2009 Re: What is the Fantasy Hero 3rd Ed. Companion Setting Western Shores was the sample campaign setting. Was pretty basic as far as settings go, but seemed pretty playable to me. I always used a homegrown setting back then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigbywolfe Posted May 25, 2009 Report Share Posted May 25, 2009 Re: What is the Fantasy Hero 3rd Ed. Companion Setting Just out of curiosity, you said 3rd Ed. in the title and 2nd Ed. in all of your posts. Which one are you guys actually talking about?

Lord Liaden Posted May 25, 2009 Report Share Posted May 25, 2009 Re: What is the Fantasy Hero 3rd Ed. Companion Setting The Western Shores - Fantasy Hero Campaign Setting http://www.curufea.com/hero/doku.php?id=ws:index Do you mean this one? QM Curufea's own campaign,linked to above, is largely based on the Western Shores setting included in the Fantasy HERO Second Edition genre book, but he did make a few significant departures from the material as published. Just out of curiosity' date=' you said 3rd Ed. in the title and 2nd Ed. in all of your posts. Which one are you guys actually talking about?[/quote'] Yes, it might be worthwhile to clarify our references. FH First Edition was published in the 1980s before the HERO System was unified. It had its own unique variant of the HS rules. FH Second Edition was published after the Big Blue Book and used 4E HERO, and included the Western Shores. FH Third Edition is the current one for 5E HERO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks - I was just going to point that out. My campaign pretty much repopulated the setting with different races and cultures. So don't treat it as canon.
