Game Summary

Dying of The Light was Hogshead Publishing's first original contribution to Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay. The players are locked in a race to find the magic object that is vital to a ritual. But with chaos being chaos, even such a formulaic adventure will be non-standard.

Due to it's large number of authors, Dying of the Light is more episodic than other warhammer campaigns. The warhammer tradition of puns and germanic names are taken to its extreme - one character's name actually means dentist. Dying of the Light is also noteworthy for being the last time the Fimir appears in warhammer canon.

5 / 10OliveiraInteresting but flawed experiment in multi-author campaign-writing. About half and half of hits and misses.
5 / 10Zounds!Useful as a mine of ideas, but as a WHFRP campaign it looks pretty poor and railroaded compared to The Enemy Within.
