In December last year, I mentioned that I wanted to release a one-pager about elves this year, set in the same (SotGH) world as Minerunners and Sharp Knives & Dark Streets. I had originally planned to call it Woodland Wardens, but that name was already in use, so I toyed with Woodland Sentinels -- until Jesse Ross (on the Zadmar Games Discord) suggested Sylvan Sentinels.
You can get it here: Sylvan Sentinels!
I included a Six-Scene Scenario called Battle at the Forest Border, which covered one of the major events prior to the beginning of the SotGH campaign -- the destruction of the Treebiter goblin tribe. In this case, the players get to play the elves (or "forest humans" as the goblins call them) who destroy the tribe, meaning the scenario can even be played as a sort of prequel to Saga of the Goblin Horde!
A few months ago, I published Tomb Guardians, which included a Tricube Tactics scenario, and I thought it would be fun to do something similar again, except on a smaller scale. Most of the other Six-Scene Scenarios I've written offer three different boss fights for the Showdown scene, but I decided to do it a little differently in Battle at the Forest Border, and provide a single boss fight, but with guidelines for running it with either the base Tricube Tales rules or the Tricube Tactics combat supplement.
I picked up as many of Dean Spencer's elf illustrations as I could find (I still have a lot of credits for supporting him on Patreon, so I might as well use them!) and was able to put together 15 form-fillable character cards. These cards have the same Tricube Tactics design as the ones in Tomb Guardians (with knacks and minions), although they're only single-coded.
Sylvan Sentinels will definitely be turned into a SWADE micro-setting as well!
