The Great Pendragon Campaign

Pendragon 6th Edition | Campaign

About the adventure

It is year 480 of our Lord and you are to be knighted. And with the king Aurelius Ambrosius visiting your future liege's court together with his brother Uther and Merlin the Magician, this will be a great to opportunity to show off your skills and bravery and gain glory. And with the rumors about Saxons attacking again, kingdom of Logres will surely witness the birth of a new famous lineage. The Great Pendragon Campaign begins just before the start of the reign of Arthur’s father King Uther, when player knights can participate in the events of Arthur’s conception. The long and brutal Interregnum of Saxon wars is forever altered when Arthur draws the Sword from the Stone to start his great and glorious reign. The Boy King leads his knights through periods of consolidation and expansion until the entire Western world is brought under his sway. Then, to High Adventure! Knights gain Glory and lands in the periods of Romance and Tournaments, and at last engage in the greatest adventure of all, The Quest for the Holy Grail. Then, amidst tragedy and broken dreams, the Twilight Period draws the epic to a close. Eighty years of campaign detailed year-by-year provide the background, on-going events and adventures that define structure of King Arthur’s glorious reign. Pendragon is set amidst the glory and grandeur of King Arthur’s Britain. Its innovative mechanics drive the emotional impact of play as your characters pursue Glory, overcome life-and-death struggles, cross blades with ruthless enemies, and fight for love and justice in a world of brutal medieval realism. Pendragon campaigns are generational: you will grow old, you may marry, you may have children, and when you die (by the sword or the slow decay of time), you resume play as your heir!

Captain66 is a great GM, I highly recommend him. I’ve played Warhammer Fantasy, Delta Green, and Discworld games with him as GM. He runs fun campaigns, really knows the rules and campaign, is helpful with beginners learning the rules and how to play in Foundry, and is a nice person with a good sense of humor!

Playing Twilight 2000 under this GM has been pretty amazing. Unfortunately Real Life is making me step aside from the game currently. Highly recommend

Captain was an excellent GM/Handler. He painted a vivid picture for where we were in the scenario and what options were available to us. He gave us freedom to make our own choices and do whatever we wanted in the scenario. I had a great time and I would recommend him to anyone. I liked how he used Foundry and incorporated music into the scenario the music was atmospheric and entrancing. I am grateful He was our DM and I would choose him to DM for me and my group in the future.

Joined a mothership one-shot, was plenty of fun! Surprisingly, and partly thanks to lucky rolls, our party made it alive!

Playing Deathwatch campaign and Captain66 is not only very friendly but extremely knowledgeable of the content. Presenting massive amounts of information in a clear and understandable way from an extremely confusing and archaic system!
