| Description | |
| I found this module nearly a year ago. It is a gem of a mod that goes from saving a friend to running a castle. Its very well done, and I am reposting it here. I do not know the author, or true name of the series. If you do please advise me! Tales of Celts is mine, this one is NOT. | |
Note by Sawark (2015-10-03):
I've compared the original modules and those reuploaded by Rome and found few differences in Chapter 2 & more in Chapter 4 (more precisely: in .are and .git files).
Perhaps Rome slightly modified few areas of these chapters.

Some trouble with chapter 4, but the areas are small and right for a linear module. A playthrough at least once.
Overlooked gem I guess :D
linear module, but definitely not a boring one
issues:
- xp scale - received to much XPs I think. Gained lots of levels in short time
- "we" multiplayer assumption in some places, in other single. Solution: use "you"(one stargate pun intended)
- typos - "aventurers" in mordaryn convo(1st module); "powress" in mikhail convo(4th module)
- Mikhail does not acknowledge death of mordaryn and thus the game is broken(use command SetVarInt qaernatalk 1)
- no real ending(I had to open the 5th and final module to see that there was it)
A series of mini-modules that are linked together and autoload, saving some character saving and then startup in the process. I am stuck in the Troll Marshes on the bridge as I am supposed to get a key from my bud Biren in the castle when I do the first part of this quest, and then he doesn't acknowledge it or give the key. That is the end of the mod I guess, because there is no way forward. I tried to replay from a save and go back a few times to the Troll cave and the castle, but nothing happened as it should. Too bad.
