Free OSR - Hexcrawl Basics



Sure, other books talk about hexcrawls (I've even done a video on it - What is a HexCrawl and Why Should You Run One?), some folks just don't have much experience playing in a hexcrawl, let alone running one. That's where Hexcrawl Basics comes into play - 26 pages of exactly what it says on the tin at PWYW pricing.

If you are interested in hex crawls and want to get your feet wet, grab Hexcrawl Basics and Blackmarsh to reference the concepts - both can be had for free, and they may just open your eyes.

This supplement is a guide to the mechanical methods of running a hexcrawl style campaign. It is written for OSR-style games, specifically Necrotic Gnome's Old School Essentials, but can easily be adapted to fit others. It includes methods of both traveling through hexes and exploring within a hex, clarifications on rules for getting lost, populating a hex with lairs, determining the range of monsters within the lair, and more.
