ShadowSea

ShadowSea is a tactical miniatures game set in a sunless world, lost to history until seekers of fortune ventured into the nighted depths to confront the rulers of the ancient seas and guardians of forgotten relics. Game sessions can be simple and quick, taking less than an hour, or can be linked to grand campaigns, where warbands quest for lost artifacts across a sunless land with underwater citadels, forests of towering fungal trees, and ruined cities infested with hungry creatures. The rules in this document are interspersed with accounts of many of the previous fortune seekers who had come into this land and can be used for ideas when creating adventure scenarios.

The game rules for ShadowSea are based upon the Song of Blades and Heroes (SOBH) ruleset by Ganesha Games, and are designed for fast and furious play with plenty of heroic action, channeling of arcane magic, and adventures in a lost underground world, resolved with a few rolls of 6-sided dice. Six unique forces search for ancient artifacts and golden treasures through crumbling ruins, trap-filled catacombs and underwater citadels.
