dies. By using the stickers during the game, the
map will be unique for your own game, a living
and permanent record chronicling your adventures
in the Forbidden Lands.
The game map is double-sided, so it can be

map and stickers can be bought separately in
case you play many campaigns.

ROLLING DICE
The rules will sometimes ask
you to roll D3, 2D6 and D66. D3
means you roll a D6 and divide
the result by two, rounding up.
2D6 means you roll two six-sided
dice and add the results. D66
means you roll two D6. The first
die represents the tens digit and

counts as the hundreds digit,
the second as the tens digit and
the third as the ones digit.

to use them.
