In addition to the basics, two new classes (Ostorians and Half-Dark Elves) and one new class (Blade Conjurer) are added. Working from the 4th D&D rules, Age of Lords utilizes the core races, all the classes from the Player’s Handbook and the majority of the classes from Player’s Handbook 2 (information for Avengers, Invokers, Shamans, and Wardens are not included in the materials, but those classes and a few additional races are available at for those interested). While there are opportunities for combat aplenty, both in the Pit Games and exploring dungeons once you’ve gained the permission of a lord, the politics of the realm will inevitably require a good deal of wit and subterfuge to fully take advantage of what these books offer. You’ll need a group of players interested in more than just the standard dungeon crawl.

The campaign setting, outlined in both the Campaign Setting and Expedition Guide, is one full of conspiracies and peace held in check by only the thinnest margins. To gain permission, adventurers must compete in Pit Games, IE gladiatorial combat, and emerge victorious.
The continent has been divided into six kingdoms that survived the war, and while the borders of the kingdoms are respected for the most part, border crossing is only permissible with the express permission of one of the six lords. Following that brutal war, the Age of Lords begins proper. It was only when the dark races invaded from across the sea that the continent banded together in The Uprising in order to protect themselves from annihilation. As the races of the world expanded across the continent of Thallorand, fiefdoms were established and war among the mortal races raged. Threllion created the human race, while her opposite number, J’choral, the Goddess of Chaos, introduced monsters to the world.
Even imprisonment was not enough to put an end to their battle, and the two Gods exerted their power to bring about life on the planet. The world of Braugh is one shaped almost exclusively from war a battle between the God Brothers, Gorrand and Zorm, led to their imprisonment inside the planet by the Goddess of Balance, Threllion. Being familiar with the core rules of each system (and having access to the core rule books for your respective game) is a must.Īge of Lords focuses on the world of Braugh and it’s main continent, Thallorand. As 4th Edition is what I am familiar with, those are the books I took a look at, but I would imagine the only real difference between the two versions comes down to mechanics and little else.
