The Pledging to Play Process
- Decide whether you want to play one or two positions.
- Decide the race of the Main/s you want to play. The race totals will be published on this page.
- Decide whether you want to submit advance political, religious, and arcance faction pledges. If you do so, you will receive an item which will only be of use when you have the title for that faction. These items will grant you a mark of glory (pledge for a political faction), a mark of divinity (religious faction), and mark of wizardy (arcane faction). You do not have to join the faction/s you pledge for, but if you do not, the items will be of no use to you. The pledge totals will be published on this page.
- Let the GM know how many positions you want to play, and your advance faction pledges, before the 21st February.
- Setup deadline – please send in completed setup sheets before the 8th March
- You work out your setups and send them to the GM before the setup deadline.
- Game starts within four weeks of the setup deadline, and date of the first production will be set accordingly at this point.

Module Details
Revolts 2 monthly
Kings Peace ends on the 3rd production.
Following King’s peace the Pax Trekwill rules detailled in the module will be enforced, in the (x,y) area described.
In both the standard King’s Peace and the Pax Trekwill, we will use a ‘Spirit’ based King’s Peace.
Turnaround: 7 days throughout.
SEI Cap 1000
TL Cap 12
TG Weight 7
Thief Ruin penalty 230
Arcanists start with the number of spells detailed in the core rules.
All starting characters have 3 actions
Overlord CCAA. 1 guild @ 12
Mercenary DBB. 1 guild @ 30
Adventure Party DBBBA. 1 guild @ 8
Hero: EC. 1 guild @ 8
Clan: BBBBAAAA 1 guild @ 8 (for races that can be Clans)
All module locations have 1 large slot of urban or caravan militia
Guilds may be placed in module cities which contain the same race population as the guild sponsor or Torgau. Overlords and Mercs may place their guild in the start location. No-one may place their guild in an ally’s home location.
Overlords and Mercs pop levels vary with racial size. Troop amounts are always calculated based the amount of pop and position type.
No Teleporting of TGs using adventures or item activation.
You may join no more than one political faction.
You may join no more than one religious faction.
You may join no more than one arcane faction.
Tough module locations, high prestige owners
There is no restriction on the use of Character Rolling Thunder.
Carry capacity of flying mounts is quartered. CF of flying mounts is increased. Neither change affects flying warmounts. Stables give 5% growth modifier.
No secret faction may win the game. You are permitted to join them, but there can be no victory except those described below.
If an adventure is limited to 18 times, in some circumstances I may elect to allow 50 completions. The 18 point limit was enforced due to previous code restrictions which are now bypassed. If you fail an adventure due to it being done 18 times, get in touch and I may allow it to succeed.
The module names certain training types in adventures. Many of these will be changed due to the new list of Training Types.
The Crown of Chaos module is wrong concerning Riting and taking control of characters. Pagans, Deathwalkers and the non-religious may be the target of any kind of Rite spell; only Pagans and Deathwalkers may cast Rite spells. The issue of control of the target is explained in the Legends rules. The comments about control in the Crown module are in error.
You may play amphibious races, though you are strongly discouraged from doing so as there is unlikely to be population or tertiary characters of that race in any significant quantity.
Seafarer setups are not available.
Joining Factions
You may pledge to join three factions per position, and these can all be different. But once you have joined a faction with one position, that position cannot join any further factions, and your second position may only join the same faction the first position has joined. (If that second position cannot join the faction, it can still support it.)
New spells and Adventures
Adventure 2500
Be a Mercenary or an Overlord Main inside your own starting location during the first month. Be race 201-240. Target the force with the adventure. Once per character. Gain – 24 towers, 8 gatehouse, 14 keep, 2 moat, 2 ditch and the title ‘Military Architect’.
Adventure 2501
Be a Mercenary or an Overlord Main inside your own starting location during the first month. Be race 241-260. Once per character. Gain – 150 Wagons, 2400 Food, 250 Iron, 250 Lumber, 200 Soft Materials,
Ask for the 200 By Products by Special Action if required.
Note that the adventure gives the Main character the goods. They are not placed into the Nomad Camp.
Special Action 2502
Be a Mercenary Main of the races 241-260. Contact the GM giving the ID of your starting guild and a secondary character. First month only.
Lose 20 points of guild strength.
The character gains +10 admin and +5 tactics.
Apprentices
Players who have never played Legends before may set up as an Apprentice. They may perform the following adventure:
2400 Don’t Hit Me!
Be a Main character (ID 1-200)
Gain – Apprentice Status (ID 2552), +1 Action, healing potions and poison cures, and the title ‘Don’t Hit Me!’ (2400). (This will be removed if the player joins a Faction.)
May be done once per character.
The Apprentice Status has a very good first rung, including a good bonus to Influence. It morphs quite easily, but the improvements are not that impressive. Apprentices who get the hang of statuses may decide at some point to overwrite their Status with another. The Apprentice Status is very easy to overwrite.
The ‘Don’t Hit Me!’ Title gives -50 Prestige, it can be revoked without warning if the GM feels that it is being misused.
Apprentices are encouraged to work with experienced players and should be protected from aggression whilst they have the Don’t Hit Me! title. However, I want experienced players to be aware of the behaviour of any apprentice who is allied to them.
The title protects the apprentice because it is judged that they are not that important to the game victory and we can therefore afford to give them extra protection. We don’t want the title and protection it affords to be abused, even if it is accidental by the apprentice (who won’t know the relevance of his or her actions).
As such, an apprentice should not engage in player versus player (PVP) activities. Any experienced players who are working with an apprentice should contact me if the apprentices becomes interested in PVP, or seems to be doing well enough that they don’t need the protection of the title. I will agree with the apprentice a time to remove the title, and will permit them to engage in PVP a few turns after that.
In cases where an apprentice is accidentally ‘getting in the way’ of a faction, I’d like all parties involved to contact me. It is almost always possible to sort it out to the benefit of the faction without spoiling the apprentice’s first game!
Victory Conditions
The below text replaces all the module text on pages 64-67.
The game may end three ways:
Special Action: Legendary Victory
Be Leader of a faction which holds the Throne of Chaos and the Crown of Chaos victory conditions. The faction must also have 10 other victory conditions.
Gain – All members of the faction win a Legendary Victory.
Legendary Victory Note: If the faction is the Chaos Lords, Dark Mages or Shadow Spirits, they must discount all Victory Conditions owned by two of these three racial groups: Hive, Pride, Chaos. Main characters from either of the two excluded racial groups do not share the Legendary victory. Main characters from other ‘evil’ races are not affected by this rule.
Special Action: Strategic Victory
Be Leader of a faction which holds the Throne of Chaos victory condition and 8 other victory conditions.
Have the GMs approval. This may involve a delay of a month whilst the GM discusses it with other players.
Gain – All members of the faction win a Strategic Victory.

Clashes
Nomination for every clash is performed using email – just let me know which characters are entering which clashes according to the times mentioned in the calendar at the end of the turns.
For all combat clashes you must provide me with an empty force ID. You must have set up the slot commanders and retreat percentage yourself.
I will teleport characters in and out of the slots as appropriate.
In team events the team leader is responsible for organising this.
Defaults: Healing after each round. Resurrection after clash. No curing of poison; stoning or insanity. Magic and mounts are permitted.
Clash results are not quite final – to give players a chance to appeal if *I* have made an error. You will be told swiftly if there is a last minute change.
There is no Mana Clash.
High Priest and Arcane Master Nomination.
Every six months Priests and Arcanists with a Base level 20 or higher can be nominated for leadership of their religion or arcane discipline.
Priority is given to Main characters first. If no Mains are nominated, then all Secondary characters (201 to 1000) are considered, and failing that, Tertiary characters (range 1001 to 5000). For example, if a Main is nominated, all characters ID 201+ are immediately ruled out. This is true for every religion and arcane discipline.
High Priest and Arcane Master Elections and Clashes.
One month later, either votes are counted, or clashes occur, or whatever method of determining the winner is employed.
High Priest and Ecumenical Adventures 101-133
During the second and subsequent terms of office all these adventures are done by Special Action instead of by adventure.
Coven Clash
This follows identical rules to the Arcane Clash, but with equivalent prizes.
The Knight Clash
Knights submit themselves, the guild owner is not involved.
If more than one Knight is nominated from a guild, follow the High Priest nomination rules to determine precedent. If two equally important characters are submitted they have a preliminary fight amongst themselves before the clash to determine who will appear.
Duel spells are never allowed. Wounds are always healed between rounds. Mounts are always allowed. Resurrection always occurs at the end of the clash.
The Warrior Champion (winner) list on page 72 is removed. There is never an entrance fee, or a penalty for a guild not participating.
The prizes for second to last place are at the GMs discretion.
The Rune Clash
The Rune Sword – Adventure 1018
Be in Torgau force with item 2997. Have Knight 30,Swordsmaster 20, a Neutral religion and a Mark of Glory. Once per game.
Gain – Title 2899 Rune Challenger. This allows competition in the rune clash and unlocks the true power of the weapon.
The Rune Axe – Adventure 1019
Be in Torgau force with item 2996. Berserker 30 Axemaster 20, Evil religion and a Mark of Evil. Once per game.
Gain – Title 2899 Rune Challenger. This allows competition in the rune clash and unlocks the true power of the weapon.
The Rune Bow – Adventure 1020
Be in Torgau force with item 2995. Ranger 30, Bowmaster 20, Good religion and a Mark of Destiny. Once per game.
Gain – Title 2899 Rune Challenger. This allows competition in the rune clash and unlocks the true power of the weapon.
The Rune Staff – Adventure 1021
Be in Torgau force with item 2994. Arcanist 40 and a Mark of Wizardry. Once per game.
Gain – Title 2899 Rune Challenger. This allows competition in the rune clash and unlocks the true power of the weapon.
The Rune Mace – Adventure 1022
Be in Torgau force with item 2993. Priest 45 and a Mark of Divinity. Once per game.
Gain – Title 2899 Rune Challenger. This allows competition in the rune clash and unlocks the true power of the weapon.
Rune challengers enter a yearly combat clash. The challengers must have their rune weaopon equipped.
The winner holds the Rune Warrior Victory Condition.
Merchant Clash
This is available to characters in the range 1-1000, base Merchant 15.
On the day of the clash, each nominated character loses all crowns in their possessions – not the force, or a guild.
The winner is calculated by taking that amount of crowns and multiplying by the square of the base merchant rank of the character.
E.G.
Fat Rogan is merchant level 18
He has 23400 crowns in his possessions.
His score in the Merchant Clash is 23400*(18*18) = 7581600
Winners prize: 1 action, Mark of Wealth, 4 Prestige
Runner Up: Mark of Fate, 2 Prestige
GM discretion worthy loser prize(s): 2 Merchant, 2 Prestige.
The GM prize or prizes may go to the 2nd to last, but will never go to a merchant who’s crown investment is considered small change.
Pathfinder Clash
The Pathfinder riddle clash is removed from this game.
Instead there will be a ‘moveplot’ clash every 6 months (see the calendar at the end of the turns):
The Ranger who has the ‘World Record’ for moving the furthest in one land based ‘move force’ order will win the clash.
Nominate a character (ID1-1000) with base Ranger skill of 10. Email me their details, specify the turn in which they performed the movement and lastly include the start and end provinces of the moveplot. (The character must have had base Ranger 10 at the time of this turn.)
The World Record will rely on the turn printout of the force movement and counts the cartesian distance between the start and end provinces. Teleporting or any similar technique that avoids actually traversing the distance is not legal. Charm of Movement is not permitted, but roads and reduced move costs are fine.
Note that ‘land based’ denies the use of flying movement, or water based movement.
The start and end provinces of the World Record will be made public.
