From the back of the box: a RuneQuest campaign in seven scenarios You Bet… You bet a lot when you left home and went adventuring. You could hold your own with a sword, and you knew your way around some of the not-so-nice local hot-spots, but you weren't prepared to be called 'stranger,' and you'd never actually seen a troll. You skirmished, and fought pitched battles. Your skills and confidence grew. Now the jobs for hired swords are few, and though you're still hungry for glory and riches and honor, right now you'd settle for a meal.… Fortunately, good men arc needed to help civilize a new domain — that may mean steady meals and reliable friends for a hungry, lonely mercenary. Seven scenarios of varying complexity will test his skills and wits, and his abilities to fight, guard, investigate, and explore will be crucial to his success. If he survives, he'll be well-seasoned, ready for anything in Glorantha.
