I have created Castle Ravenloft .tab files for the AHQ Map Generator:
This allows you to generate random Advanced Heroquest maps containing Ravenloft monsters. You use AHQ rules to fight them.
Copy the zip file into the "tables" directory and "extract here". "ravenlof1.tab,ravenlof2.tab,ravenlof3.tab" will be in the "tables" directory and you load one table on the "Tabellen Einlesen" menu option.
How it works:
I added this to monster.tab, it defines the kinds of Character Monsters:
Undead-Champion
( 1D12
1-4 "Count Strahd von Zarovich (190 Gold Crowns)"
5-8 "Young Vampire (160 Gold Crowns)"
9-10 "Howling Hag (110 Gold Crowns)"
11-12 "Klack (100 Gold Crowns)" & Monster-Magic-Treasure()
)
Undead-Champion-Monster
( 1D12
1-4 "Flesh Golem (160 Gold Crowns)"
5-8 "Gravestorm (180 Gold Crowns)"
9-10 "Werewolf (150 Gold Crowns)"
11-12 "Zombie Dragon (150 Gold Crowns)" & Monster-Magic-Treasure()
)
In undead.tab (I renamed it to raven.tab) I creat 2 kinds of Character Monsters, single and double:
Specialist-Monster
( 1D12
1-2 Undead-Champion-Monster()
3-4 Undead-Champion-Monster()
5-6 Undead-Champion-Monster()
7-8 Undead-Champion()
9-9 Undead-Champion()
10-12 Undead-Champion()
)
Specialist-Monster-Double
( 1D12
1-2 Undead-Champion-Monster() & Undead-Champion()
3-4 Undead-Champion-Monster() & Undead-Champion()
5-6 Undead-Champion-Monster() & Undead-Champion()
7-8 Undead-Champion-Monster() & Undead-Champion()
9-9 Undead-Champion-Monster() & Undead-Champion()
10-12 Undead-Champion-Monster() & Undead-Champion()
)
I add these to the Lairs-Matrix and Quest-Rooms-Matrix. Note that half the time you get one Character Monster, half the time double Character Monsters:
Quest-Rooms-Matrix
( 1D12
1-1 "3 Skeletons, 4 Zombies (70 Gold Crowns)" & Specialist-Monster()
2-2 "3 Ghouls, 4 Zombies (80 Gold Crowns)" & Specialist-Monster()
3-3 "2 Skeletons, 3 Ghouls (100 Gold Crowns)" & Specialist-Monster()
4-4 "3 Gargoyles, 3 Zombies (80 Gold Crowns)" & Specialist-Monster()
5-5 "2 Gargoyles, 2 Skeletons, 2 Zombies (90 Gold Crowns)" & Specialist-Monster()
6-6 "1 Wraith, 4 Zombies (100 Gold Crowns)" & Specialist-Monster()
7-7 "1 Wraith, 2 Zombies, 1 Skeleton (160 Gold Crowns)" & Specialist-Monster-Double()
8-8 "1 Gargoyles, 4 Skeletons (140 Gold Crowns)" & Specialist-Monster-Double()
9-9 "1 Gargoyles, 4 Zombies, 2 Ghouls (160 Gold Crowns)" & Specialist-Monster-Double()
10-10 "1 Wraith, 3 Skeletons (180 Gold Crowns)" & Specialist-Monster-Double()
11-11 "3 Gargoyles, 3 Skeletons, 3 Zombies (190 Gold Crowns)" & Specialist-Monster-Double()
12-12 "3 Skeletons, 3 Ghouls, 3 Kobold Skirmishers (200 Gold Crowns)" & Specialist-Monster-Double()
)
Wandering monsters are simply the names of the monsters:
Wandering-Monsters
( 1D12
1-2 "3 Wolves (25 Gold Crowns)"
3-4 "3 Ghouls (25 Gold Crowns)"
5-6 "3 Kobold Skirmishers (35 Gold Crowns)"
7-8 "3 Rat Swarms (20 Gold Crowns)"
9-9 "3 Skeletons (20 Gold Crowns)"
10-10 "3 Blazing Skeletons (25 Gold Crowns)"
11-11 "3 Wraith (30 Gold Crowns)"
12-12 "3 Zombies (25 Gold Crowns)"
)
Finally, the ravenlof.tab file refer to the custom files, monster.tab and raven.tab
