Hell comes to westcrown pdf download
Cheliax's largest city, Westcrown, has fallen to the Glorious Reclamation, and the evil adventurers are sent to reclaim the metropolis in the name of House Thrune. Armed with the legendary weapon they created from a gold dragon's head, the nefarious characters confront the Glorious Reclamation's forces and break its siege of a nearby Hellknight citadel.
Once the army is defeated, the villains enter Westcrown, where they must undermine the chivalrous knights' rule of the city. Finally, they face the founder and Lord Marshal of the Glorious Reclamation to end the rebellion and restore the Thrice-Damned House of Thrune's rule over the empire of Hell comes to westcrown pdf download.

Got corrections? Let us know at store paizo. That's really the best that can be said for it. Sure, there were some interesting setpieces and enemies. But, why is everything in the city possessed of an artificially high stat block?
I could swallow it if it were specifically Glorious Reclamation folk who were sent here to hold an important city, but it's not. Every random dude here is coincidentally at the right level for a book Others have said this but, holy heck where did you get all these paladins?
It was a tad absurd even in Wrath, but isn't paladin supposed to be a somewhat unusual class which takes a remarkable level of personal dedication and really means something for the individual? They're a dime a dozen here, no big deal I guess. Which brings me on to my next point. Paladins have some nice immunities, as we all know. Some would say they have some extremely strong immunities. I say let them have their hell comes to westcrown pdf download But when nigh on the only enemy you're facing is paladins, these things become very apparent.
Let's be honest, a huge pull for this AP was the chance to play evil characters with evil abilities, access to domains you wouldn't usually get, antipaladin stuff etc. And as we learned in our group, a LOT of evil class features involve fear, hell comes to westcrown pdf download, charm, and compulsion.
Yes, they're nasty things to do, but this is an -evil- game. The presence of so many paladins is a huge middle finger to a lot of the tactics and class features which are going to be favored by evil characters. I'm not sure what the impetus was for this decision, apart from to make sure the PCs don't have too much fun being evil, and are subverted as much as possible.
It might be subjective to our group, but the final villain seemed to be completely out of nowhere, no fanfare, and no reputation build up at all prior to fighting her. Compare this to Hell's Rebels, it's extremely anticlimactic and underwhelming. Adding my voice to those fed up with the evil iconics. I'm sorry but the art is some of the worst I've ever seen, and they're horribly made characters. A couple of them are interesting enough in terms of story, but I'd love to know what drugs the person is on who decided that a duergar paladin is a sensible choice.
I just finished reading this volume and found it to be very nice, possibly the best of the saga maybe a close second after volume4. The mass murdering at the begining of the book is simply glorious pun intended and the Korradath is a very funny and live dungeon, if a little too small i especially apreciated the fluidity of the encounters, well connected to previous player actions and Chorus. The missions in the middle are also well varied and interesting. Including other elements of the campaign, such as the inferno gate is hell comes to westcrown pdf download marvelous idea as well.
My favourite point of the adventure must be the final lines on the Big Bad Good Lady description. Continuing the campaing is also a very interesting article, especially for the high level stat block presented Also, what to do with a good artifact was a very nice read. I loved the bestiary, filled with high level celestials, it felt very consistent with the needs of a high level evil campaign.
All in all i am very satisfied with this volume, the art, tough being somewhere a bit too dark but that gives out a lot of atmosphere looks very good, except for a certain high level cleric, hell comes to westcrown pdf download too plain for being such a high level cleric. If i must find a ngative element i must say that i'm quite surprised by the numbers of high level paladins present in the Glorious Reclamation army.
Tough i understand that lower level enemies would have counted for nothing. Previous 2 reviews have said it all so I'll just add still not a fan of the evil Iconics taking up page space and cover. At this point, I'm figuring it went something like this: "Hey man, I noticed in the warehouse we have like ten boxes of paladins, and they're still unloading more, what's up?
I ordered up like identical paladins for the big battle at the end of Wrath of the Righteous! You can't have an epic battle without hundreds of identical paladins, pretty sure gygax said that.
Oh man, we're so fired when the Golem finds out! No dude, hell comes to westcrown pdf download, hold on, I have an idea. We pitch an evil adventure path! We just make the party a bunch of government agents for the legitimate authority! They won't actually do much evil s! So you set off the artifact bomb you spent a whole book building, only to find it's two or three delayed blast fireballs with a ridiculous hell comes to westcrown pdf download caveat that the game encourages you to let the party play as some ridiculous undead, which sort of defeats the purpose of role-playing?
The head of an adult gold dragon, blood of a bunch of peasants, the desecration of a holy spring, and the destruction of an ancient monastery of evil for roughly as much power as the level 14 sorcerer's 6th level spell slots, hell comes to westcrown pdf download.
Once the tiny warhead has been dropped, hell comes to westcrown pdf download, you sneak into the city, conduct some more silly rituals while fighting a whole bunch of paladins. Your old friends from Castle Dinyar are back: An endless fountain of paladins, minibosses that can be summoned by the final boss, and making knowledge checks to identify which devil is best at standing on a bridge.
Okay, that last one is new, but it's absurd enough to fit it with the Scourge of the Godclaw, or hell comes to westcrown pdf download The Inferno Gate. You identify some other devils to delegate to, because there are no Chelaxian troops or Hellknights anywhere on the planet. Then you fight the biggest paladin of them all or make a reasonable diplomacy checkand you're done! This book answers one of the great mysteries of the adventure path.
We finally discover why Iomedae left Heart's Edge behind when she ascended: It wasn't very good. This is a good book for mediocre artifacts. All of this is not to say this book is without redeeming value. There's a sequence I haven't mentioned with hell comes to westcrown pdf download awesome, thematic monsters in a sensical sequence, and the Solar form of the Angel Knight is going in my folder for all eternity as a 'Melee Solar.
The BBE is boring and has no build-up. The "Evil AP" is a failure, mostly because of the boxed-in framework. Who knows Right now all we know for sure is the Godclaw hell comes to westcrown pdf download an artifact sacred to Iomedae, hell comes to westcrown pdf download, and didn't give it back.
I'm looking forward to the "what happens if they lose" Continuing the Campaign paragraph in this one. Does this mean the Council of Thieves timeline has advanced, similar to what happened with Shattered Star?
Westcrown will be a clean slate for this AP, Shadowbeasts still roam the streets and presumably Ilnerik rules from Walcourt, Delvehaven is still sealed and the Drovanges are skulking about. The GR might be written as dealing with the Shadowcurse at least. More likely, the conquest of Westcrown by the Glorious Reclamation has rendered the outcome of Council of Thieves moot. If the heroes of Council of Thieves were successful, the major threats in Westcrown were dealt with then.
If they failed or if that adventure never took place, the Glorious Reclamation would have taken care of the same major threats in addition to overthrowing all of the Thrune supporters, hell comes to westcrown pdf download. Either way, the villains of Hell's Vengeance would find Westcrown in approximately the same condition regardless of earlier events. Zhangar Feb 1,am 1 person marked this as a favorite.

She has an actual alliance with Hell; I'd expect the collateral damage if she actually has to invoke it to be staggering, hell comes to westcrown pdf download. I suspect the PCs represent the Queen's best bet to get the situation back under control while keeping the damage within acceptable limits. Hell's Vengeance will assume that the events of Council of Thieves have already taken place.
There is an entire Adventure Path's worth of plots in Westcrown from Council of Thieves that simply cannot be addressed in a single adventure "Hell Comes to Westcrown"so the decision was made to "advance the timeline," so to speak--with regards to Westcrown, at least. The adventure will have more details on this. MannyGoblin Feb 1,pm Huh, so no doubt Ilnerik got staked either way. A litle dissapointed but considering he is an utter paranoid, RPing with him would be limited.
Any chance any of the children of westcrown showing up with art? Thanks, Rob. Very cool. And so it ends. This rebellion has been pushed back to the great city of Westbrook. It's the largest city in all of cheliex, and has the natural protection of its massive walls, strong gates, and the sheer scale and number of defensable positions aforded from its layout.
If this were an independent enterprise, I would have picked a much softer target. But this is a affair for the cheliexians, therefore we have some advantages. Plus if we fail, the queen is possibly going to sink this city into the abyss, and we can't have that.
Maybe I will stay in cheliex after this is all over. Maybe I will actually finish what I started some goodlong years ago. In any case, my new companions may still prove to be an asset in this bloody affair. What are the chances that someone will use this stat up to figure out a way to remove the thrice damned house of thrune from power and take over cheliex for themselves.
