Frostgrave: The Wizards' Conclave

This supplement is a little different to those that have preceded it; each scenario is written by a different games designer but the author/editor of the book gives them the Frostgrave treatment so that they are all in a very similar format. I think it is a good idea to have multiple designers working on something at the same time, as the scenario plots go off in all sorts of directions and are not limited to just one person's imagination. It took me back a little to the good old days of the early (pre-issue 90) White Dwarf magazines before it became a showcase for painted Games Workshop miniatures (not that there is anything wrong with that).

The Wizards' Conclave is an 88 page full-colour, card-covered book that is priced at £14.99. Again, the production values are as fantastic as we have come to expect from Osprey with plenty of original artwork as well as many pictures of miniatures in action.

In this supplement you will find 16 scenarios and campaigns written by a variety of wargames authors. Full rules, treasuries and bestiaries are included within each of the encounters and situations that are listed.

Introduction - The Introduction gives a brief overview of what can be found between the covers of this supplement and summarises how Joe brought his vision of a collaborative expansion supplement to fruition

Scenarios - There are sixteen scenarios in this section, with two of them being three-part campaigns. All are set out in the standard scenario format of Introduction, Set-up, Special Rules and Treasure & Experience, but, in this supplement, these ones also have a short couple of paragraphs About the Author

This supplement summary is a little shorter than usual as I do not deem it right to go into too much detail about each scenario in the book; these are all individual scenarios with their own twists and I don't wish to give anything away. Also, just doing a repetitive list would be, quite frankly, very boring to read

The next supplement is also very different in its construction, as it features an exciting way to play Frostgrave: Solo gaming. This is the one I am looking forward to putting into use very soon as I can only really game on my own at the moment due to the lockdown and so forth.
