Introducing Ugludd and Snazgit...

Ugludd Bonenose has risen to leadership of the Bittermoon tribe of goblins and intends to make his enemies tremble. Snazgit the shaman is already trembling…with laughter. He has no idea how Ugludd has managed to survive this long, but he’s determined to find out.

Ugludd must rally the tribe and set out across the Middle Kingdoms, hoping to be able to find The King’s Way – the road east through the mountains. His journey starts here…

The Tale of the Tale

A Middlehammer Tale wasn’t always intended to be what it has become. A simple idea to find a few like-minded gamers to paint with turned into a much more ambitious project, thanks to the fantastic community fans of classic fantasy games have created.
