Aces & Eights: Fool's Gold

ADD TO WISHLIST >

Fool’s Gold is an Aces & Eights adventure set in Lazarus, a boomtown on the rise, and the hills of El Diablo’s Caldera, land coveted by Imperial Mexico, the Republic of Texas, Deseret, and the United States, but occupied by “heathens, squatters, Indians and bandits.”

A strange influx of gold nuggets has caused a great deal of interest among the townsfolk of Lazarus, but is all that glitters really gold? Does a strange, solitary prospector hold the answers – or is it the local Apache – or a notorious gang of bandits? And whatever happened to the missing prospectors – or to the ghost town of Christian’s Folly? Attempting to answer these questions reveals ominous hints that everything is not what it seems. What ensues puts the players on the path to the solution, but the odds are against them, and many encounters await them within the dusty hills. Even what seems like success may be merely a prelude to revenge…

As well as providing adventures in town, wilderness, and subterranean settings, this special bookmarked 95 page PDF includes hooks for various types of player characters, plus local rumors, several reference and area maps, non-player character sheets in our popular Rustlers & Townsfolk format, and more, all in an easy to use format. Even after the players finish the adventure, you can use the supplemental material again and again. From subtle intrigue to intense action-packed combat, you’ll find hours of fun in this new and compelling adventure for your western campaign.

Visually this is a stunning product, like all the Aces & Eights material. The NPCs are as detailed as a GM could hope for, although it would have been nice if as much attention had been paid to linking the module to the town setting included with [...]

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.
