Hex Crawl Chronicles: 7 - The Golden Meadows
In a windswept valley of scrub and sand there is a pleasant meadow fed by a bubbling spring. Here the wandering folk have made their home¸ a fort of adobe under the blazing sun. From this place in the middle of nowhere one might join the prospectors in the mountains searching for silver¸ race against the mountain men in their search for the fabled Caverns of the Old Ones or just explore the many secrets and dangers hiding beneath the burning sands.
The Golden Meadows is a hex-crawl¸ referring to the hex-shaped units that divide the map. Just as dungeon adventures take place on a gridded map¸ wilderness adventures can be conducted on a hex map¸ allowing players the freedom to decide where their characters roam and giving them the thrill of discovering the many places and people that have been placed on the map. This map represents a large area filled with numerous places to discover and explore¸ and can be used as a campaign area in its own right¸ or dropped into an existing campaign. Released in separate editions for both Swords and Wizardry and Pathfinder.
