Esenwein Castle & Zombie Graveyard

I know it’s been done before – but I haven’t done it yet! I’ve decided to try my hand at building the abode of Cyprien Esenwein and the surrounding grounds. And of course, the scenario will feature a handful of replicating zombies.


I’ve come up with a great two player scenario. It’s basically a glyph search; some kinda cursed object in the castle that must be found. Players head toward the castle through the graveyard. Strong howling winds (outside the castle) prevent flyers from getting there too fast. A locked but weakened door obstructs the way, leaving figures stranded in the graveyard while the free roaming zombies (controlled by the winner of initiative) do their thing. Fresh zombies (now that’s an oxymoron!) appear on the graves at the beginning of every round. Nice huh?

I also would like to create a three player scenario as well. I haven’t really thought this one out well yet, as I rarely have three players at my house. Could be a two-against-one deal, maybe? One player inside the castle trying to “maintain” while the other two try to conquer – I dunno. What do you think? Got any good ideas for a fun three-player scenario?

As a bonus, I’m also planning on including a print off to make stained glass windows for Cyprin’s stronghold.

The concept map from back in July is finally completed! Storyline didn’t come out too bad either. Janitor accidentally turns on a devastating earthquake device in Seismic Resonance. I kinda had to finish this map since I included it in the 2010 HeroScape Calendar as the Map of the Month for May.
