Let's put together a complete list of adventures!

[Dunkelbrink]

I'm loremastering a campaign at the moment, with the Darkening of Mirkwood as a base, but expanding the storyline with other material and adventures. For this purpose I am trying to put together a complete list of existing adventures for TOR and I cant recall having seen a list of this kind on the forums. Maybe we can help each other out to discover what adventures are available for the game? I am sure I am missing a lot of them in this list.

By this I mean every complete scenario available (that is; made for TOR and possible to get hold of) in all major languages (not counting James' Wild adventures in this case, excellent as the idea is). French seems to be the language to know in this case (except English of course) and I now regret choosing German in school. I've tried to use Google translate on the ones listed below and the scenarios seem quite good. So far I haven't discovered any adventures in Swedish (my native tongue).

Darkening of Mirkwood (not listing individual adventures here)

Fan-made adventures in Spanish

Abriendo el sendero (variant of Marsh bell, got this from forum user Farenthal)

So, are there any other adventures in English, French, Spanish or German? And is there a way to make them available for the TOR players here on the forums?

[Falenthal]

I'll try to do a text with everything, but the spanish community has all (known) fan adventures together in one place, along some english ones:

http://www.lacompania.net/lorien/anillounico

As you can see, it's in the first section, called "Aventuras" (Adventures).

[Rich H]

Its a pity some talented person couldn't translate the French and Spanish adventures into English for many more of us to enjoy.

[Dunkelbrink]

Thanks for the list, Farenthal! If you have read through all the Spanish adventures, is there anyone that is particurlary worth looking at?

I agree with Rich that is is a pity that there probably is a treasure of adventures out there not available in English. The French adventures from the Maraudeur Magazine and the Beorn Campaign by Marc G looks especially intruiging to me.

Maybe it's time for a collaborative forum effort here? Google translate isn't that bad if you have a general idea about what the text is about, and if we share the load, taking a few pages each from a chosen adventure it might actually work. Maybe som French/Spanish speaking forumite could read it thorugh and check for major mistakes. I'm up for the challenge if some others would join in.

[Falenthal]

My humble opinion is that "Abriendo el Sendero" (Clearing the Path), "El Temor de la Sombra del Este" (Fear of the Eastern Shadow), "Corte de Pico, Plumas y Garras" (Court of Peak, Feathers and Claws, related to the quarrel between the Eagles, the Kingfisher and even the Grim Hawks hinted at in HotW) and "La Sombra Sobre el Lago Largo" (The Shadow Over Long Lake", which is a mini-campaign) are the best of them.

Might be an idea to work on its translations to publish them in the Other Minds Magazine.
I'm not a very good translator, but might give a try using Google Translate and reviewing the result.

I started trying to translate some of the French material - completed the 'Herbier de la Terre du Milieu' and started on the Caran Gaur adventures - but it was very slow going for my rusty French, and other commitments all took priority, so sadly it's waiting (indefinitely) for when I have more free time. Which is a shame because Caran Gaur's work is a great read, and deserves a wider audience!

I created a Google Docs shared folder for the works in progress - read only view here - and would be happy to give others write access if they want to collaborate.

I could have a go at one of the shorter French ones--any favorites that people were hoping for? (On the Marauder web magazine table of contents it doesn't look like the scenarios list which system they're for, does anyone know the titles of the specific adventures for TOR?)

Hi Rue,

last time I looked, I think the TOR adventures in Maraudeur are the Caran Gaur trilogy that form a mini-campaign.

The author kindly shared Word documents of the originals that I ran through Google Translate and then started to clean up. I figured it would make most sense to start with the first, "Between Dogs and Wolves": you can see the original here and the very start of my translation effort here. The French originals for the others are also in the same folder.

If you (or anyone else reading!) like to take over, you'd be very welcome: send me a Personal Message and I'll give you write access to those documents.

La Malediction du Changeur du peau (Campaign in three parts, https://anneaunique.files.wordpress.com ... e-peau.pdf)

In four parts actually: 1) La vengeance d'Arzog, 2) Au coeur des ténèbres, 3) Le fléau, 4) Les brumes de Gundabad. Each part also available separately.

(On the Marauder web magazine table of contents it doesn't look like the scenarios list which system they're for, does anyone know the titles of the specific adventures for TOR?)

Caran Gaur part 1, Entre chiens et loups (issue 8, p. 190)
Caran Gaur part 2, Traque dans le Val d'Anduin (issue 9, p. 230)
Caran Gaur part 3, Fort-Bois (issue 14, p. 214)

"La Sombra Sobre el Lago Largo" (The Shadow Over Long Lake", which is a mini-campaign

IIRC this was not written for TOR but for a homebrew system heavily influenced by TOR (including Shadow points and stuff) so should be portable. It seems worth it, definitely. Also the author made a great map of Esgaroth for his game: http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-sUp5rYwOAvA/U ... +corto.png The game world is basically that of MERP though so there are a few things that you may want to change, e.g. a member of the Beorning 'race'. (I made up my own back-story for him, mixed with that of 'The Curse of the Skin-changer' above and of course the stuff on Beorn in TOR including DOM.) Also there are a few weird names from MERP, e.g. as far as I can tell Seamatha the 'sea-worm' (from ICE's Lake-town module) is actually Old English for 'sea-maggot' (so 'worm' in the wrong sense), but few people care about those things anyway.

Thanks Aeglosdir, that's helpful. It'd be great to have some back and forth so fans can use adventures even if they don't speak English (or French or Spanish or...). I can do French to English okay, but am not fluent enough to go English to French with any success.
