About this game
Shadows of Brimstone: Swamps of Death sends your posse of Old West heroes wading into rot-soaked mires instead of mineshafts, but the bones of the game stay the same: build a hero, delve into modular terrain, and fight increasingly foul things with dice, positioning and a lot of loot. Sessions run long, closer to three hours than one, and the campaign structure means every trip back to town, every gold piece spent on gear, actually matters for the next delve. It's a standalone entry in the Brimstone line, so you can dive straight into the swamp without owning the mines first. Heavy, atmospheric, built for groups who want to live in a campaign for months.
