Banquet in Stringwater! - New mega-solo, TavernmasterGames

[faxfayfaz2]

Hi, folks. After an unavoidable delay of several years, my long-promised return* to the Kingdom of Stringwater is almost upon us! We (Tavernmaster Games) will release it to an eager public in a few days (just tying up the loose ends), but to set your jaws a-slaverin', here's the blurb:

Banquet In Stringwater!
A Dainty Dish To Set Before The King
by
Jason Mills

In Stringwater the birthday of King Wilf is celebrated with a great feast. It is a high honour to have one's dish served as the main course. The banquet is tomorrow, but today is the contest to find the best forager-chef!

You and a dozen other finalists must enter and explore the enchanted woodlands of the Royal Park. Whatever adventures unfold therein, you must emerge at the end of the day with game and garnish to cook for His Majesty. You will need all manner of skills to deal with the myriad situations you encounter, and to create a glorious repast fit for a King! How better to spend a summer's day?

Banquet In Stringwater! is a huge and light-hearted solo adventure for all editions of Tunnels & Trolls, designed to offer fresh experiences with every play through. Any character stands a chance of success, although magic-users will find that only a modest selection of spells are permitted in the Royal Park.

This is, if I say so myself, quite a beast (albeit a friendly beast). It has:

• More WORDS than The Great Gatsby!
  
  
• More JOKES than War and Peace!
  
  
• More PICTURES than the Koran!

Sporting a beautiful cover by the inestimable Simon Tranter and copious internal artwork by the redoubtable Jeff Freels, Banquet in Stringwater! will be available in print form to treasure and caress, and as a PDF with hyperlinked paragraphs throughout.

*(Adventurers who didn't catch the earlier Scandal in Stringwater! solo will have to scour ebay or wait for us to get our act together for a reprint! Not that you need it, they're just set in the same place.)

Just to pitch in with faxfayfaz2, my son and I had a whale of a time playtesting 'Banquet' and I heartily recommend it

[zanshin]

Looking forward to this. It precipitated a trip to Tavernmaster games site, and I clearly need to save my pennies for some other stuff I have missed.

Amazing number of great freebies too.

[darrght]

Just a quick update on Banquet in Stringwater. The pdf will be available from Saturday on DriveThru. For the first week it will be at the discounted price of $3 before reverting to the full price of $5, so it's the early Troll that gets the discounted solo This is both to encourage sales, of course, but we at TavernMaster Games hope those who buy early will post plenty of reviews.

[darrght]

My fellow trolls, less than a day until you can download the pdf of this fantastic mega solo. I had hoped the author might have uploaded an image of the amazing Simon Tranter cover for your delectation by now, lazy so and so

Still, I have yet to upload the files to LuLu for the print version so perhaps i should keep my thoughts to myself/

[jeffepp]

I have it!

One little issue. There isn't an obvious statement on what characters can go through the solo. It does say it on the DT page, but I couldn't find it the document. Just a little thing.

[faxfayfaz2]

NOW AVAILABLE!

Banquet in Stringwater! can be had in PDF form from DriveThruRPG HERE, with fully hyperlinked paragraphs throughout, for the bargain introductory price of $3!

Print link to follow soon.

We at Tavernmaster Games are always grateful for honest reviews placed on DriveThru or Lulu. Please consider sharing your joy thoughts with the world if you buy our latest magnificent available solo adventure!

[faxfayfaz2]

Quite right, jeffepp. Given the light-hearted nature of the solo, "up to level 4" is more of a suggestion than a rigid stricture really: there is fun to be had for any kind of character. But yes, it would have been better if I'd been consistent!

[faxfayfaz2]

Let's see if this works. Hopefully, cover displayed below!

[bigjackbrass]

Splendid stuff. Bought, and shared the link with my friends on Twitter.

[faxfayfaz2]

Aaaaand here's the PRINT version!   A lovely thing to own and cherish. 

[faxfayfaz2]

Thank you to the numerous purchasers! Don't forget to put a review where you bought it from, you know you want to!

Yes faxfayfaz2 good idea to give our trollish brethren a gentle nudge in this particular direction That said, it is such a huge tome that even running characters through it every spare minute since it's release barely 5 days ago, you'd struggle to have seen enough of it to give anything but a bare bones assessment Not that we wouldn't like them anyway

[khaboom]

Now I have it! The saving roll wasn't too hard. Ahhh! Tomorrow beckons fondly!

[faxfayfaz2]

There's still a couple of days to take advantage of the launch offer price of $3 for the PDF!  

After the weekend you've missed your chance.    Don't be that guy!
