Here are some quest packs to download. They are zipped files with text descriptions and bitmap file maps. If you have any questions or comments about any of the quests, email them to:
innkeep'at-sign'aginsinn.com (replace the 'at-sign' with an @).
I am always interested in your quests. If you have any that you have written, I will post them here for you. You will receive full credit for your work. You can use your own format, or download the icons that I use below. I can even convert your old paper quests to electronic format if you wish. If you have any quests at all, please let me know!
Some of these quests need additional figures to play. Don't let it keep you from downloading them if you don't have the figures. Many contain conversions to use regular Heroquest monsters, and if they don't you can always convert them yourself.
Check out the Tile Printing Page for some tips on printing tiles.

| The Gathering of the Hordes | 6.4 MB | 11 Quests 2_short_Interludes 3_Optional_Quests | Nicodemus | After the final defeat of the Witch Lord at the ruins of Kalos, Skulmar, commander of the Forgotten Legion, escaped with many of the Witch Lord's powerful spell books. This, and the loss of so many troops during their entrapment within Karak Varn was the beginning of a downward spiral for the Empire. The betrayal of Sir Ragnar at Kalos was also a crushing blow for the Emperor and his subjects; and a decade has since past, the Empire continuing to fall into even darker times. Now with the forces of Chaos closing in on the Empire's borders, a dwindling army, barren crops, and starving citizens, there is one final hope: The four brave Heroes who had aided the Empire so many times in years past must now be recalled... | Men-At-Arms: 4 Scouts 2 Swordsmen 3 Crossbowmen 2 Halberdiers 4-5 Black Orcs 1 Elf Warrior 1 Storm Master These tiles are needed: Treasure Room Forest Power Sphere Center_Room_W/O_Crystal Center Room With Pit Meadow Tiles_from_the_Kellar's_Keep_Quest_Pack Tiles_from_the_Return_of_the_Witch_Lord_Quest_Pack Tiles_from_the_Barbarian_Quest_Pack Tiles_from_the_Elf_Quest_Pack These cards are needed: Artifact Cards Chaos Artifact Cards Monster Cards Equipment Cards Companion Cards Seer Spell Cards Men-At-Arms Cards |

Nicodemus | With the crippling blow dealt to the heart of the Black Orc's Keep, and the capturing of the five Tomes of Chaos Magic, the Empire seemed ripe for an age of prosperity. Indeed even our Heroes were to take part, given their own lands and titles following their victory. Lord Castanea, the Imperial Seer who had aided in the onslaught against the Hordes, has gone missing after researching the inner workings of the Tomes of Chaos Magic. The Emperor's Elite guard were sent to collect Lord Castanea. Upon their return, not only were they empty-handed, but they slaughtered the members of the Imperial Court while seemingly under the control of Lord Castanea. Now Lord Castanea has begun to gather the remnants of the forces of Chaos to him, and fled beyond the borders of the Empire. The Emperor has sent out Scouts to the corners of the Empire to track down its Heroes. But this time it may not be enough, without the members of the Court the Empire is itself in chaos and disarray; and at a tactical disadvantage. New blood must be found to help govern the Empire! |
