The Web of Eldaw (1985)

From the Introduction

This is a scenario designed for the Warhammer Game System, and can be played either with the Warhammer Role Play game, or with the Warhammer Battle Rules (or even with both). The game consists of a dungeon adventure, deep inside The Web of Eldaw - a system of labyrinthine caverns. The scenario can be played out using any other suitable gaming system, so long as you are prepared to change stats and minor details as you go along. Stats for Warhammer Role Play and Battle Rules are provided. Note that two values are given for the Wounds characteristic eg, 1/10. The first number is used for Warhammer Battle Rules, the second Role-Play. All other stats are identical.

The game can be played by 2-4 players taking the roles of the characters described, plus GM. If two or three players are to attempt the adventure, the two characters Giltbrook and Mickelson can be run by either one player or by the Rolando player as 'henchmen'.

User summary:

This scenario was the first published scenario for Warhammer: The Mass Combat Fantasy Role-Playing Game, and thus the first-ever scenario for Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay. It originally appeared in The Good Games Guide (Issue 1), 1985. It later was scanned and circulated widely as a five-page scenario in PDF format (the main version noted here), putatively with the publisher's support. Circa 2000 the text was provided as HTML on several fan sites, usually with download links to the scanned PDF version.

In 2008, Jay Hafner revised the scenario to align it with Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay (2nd Edition) and provided a reworked map with better graphics. This version widely circulated on the internet, often mistakenly identified as being targeted to WFRP 1st Edition.
