Date: 2008-01-12 02:57:37 GMT Author: AndrewGronosky Comment: Initial version


A supplement for [[Fourth Edition]], describing the [[Stonehenge Tribunal]]. It is unusual in that, while it was written for Fourth Edition, it contains no game statistics or mechanics; instead, characters are described in general terms.  Therefore it should be easy to adapt to a [[Fifth edition]] saga.

FAQ Rating: \*\*\* (14 reviews; 0 *, 3 \*\*, 7 \*\*\*, 4 \*\*\*\*)

* An excellent resource for anyone running a Saga in Stonehenge. My only complaint with it is that it is a bit short on mythic detail, but other than that it is quite possibly the perfect Ars Magica supplement.
* Not bad, good flavour, details are good with lots of hooks.
* Raised the standard for Tribunal books.
* Excellent sourcebook, though it has been legitimately criticized for ducking the "power level" issue by failing to provide NPC stats.
* A solid look at England and Wales. Concentrates overly on the mundane and ecclesiastical aspects and suffers in the Mythic department. No stats or kewl new powerz.
* Nice, maybe not mythic enough.
* Sorry, but I thought the lack of stats was a cop out. I've never set a saga in England, so I didn't find it very useful.
* A very good tribunal book, although the number of magi described leaves less room than I would have liked for the SG to manoeuvre. I was particularly pleased by the absence of stats.
* Well detailed, integrates the Order into the local setting. Dodges the power issue almost completely, probably the only viable solution to the power level issue.
