Four Against Darkness:: 4AD DM Screen Inserts By: energythief | Four Against Darkness DM Screen Inserts.pptx (2.37 MB) After being frustrated with the layout of the rulebook and all the page-flipping required, I created these four sheets to slip into a DM screen I have. This helps the game take up considerably less table space. I've added notes and page references wherever I thought it was necessary, and have incorporated some of the official errata that Andrea has made on Facebook or other places here and there. If you have a three-panel screen you can always just ditch the final page. Note: This is only for base 4AD. Once I purchase 4AA I'll probably need to update this. Hope it helps! | Apr 13, 2021 |

Four Against Darkness:: FOUR AGAINST DARKNESS - ALL CLASSES By: yvesvanherp | FOUR AGAINST DARKNESS - AVAILABLE CLASSES 2.3.pdf (260 KB) Here you will find all available classes as of 7/20/2020. There are 61 in total now (including those of the new pdf/book "More Mountainous Mayhem"). For my own group of players I included some extra information about starting Life and starting wealth because that seems to be quite trivial to some of them. If there is something missing feel free to let me know! Gunter | Jul 20, 2020 |

Four Against Darkness:: MAGICAL ITEMS By: yvesvanherp | 4AD - MAGICAL ITEMS.pdf (256 KB) Here you can find magic weapons and other magical items. I wanted to avoid however to give weapons "+1" on attacks, damage, etc... unless there was also something to balance this power. Magic items can also be "strong" in other (more tiny) ways, like you'll see. And they don't always have to be weapons! I hope you can use this table in your plays and I will possibly make other ones (I have a lot of them in free RPG expansions I've written before). How to use the table: Whenever you have to roll on a Magic Treasure Table in the book/supplement that you are using, you can opt to roll 1d6 instead. ֍ When the word "campaign" is used in the table feel free to replace this by dungeon, adventure, session or whatever you like. | Jun 19, 2020 |

I hope it's a little help to the community and that it will lower the time when you want to find something. Give me a sign when you find mistakes or if there's something missing. Thanks in advance, Günter | Jun 10, 2020 |

Four Against Darkness:: CLASS DOCUMENT By: yvesvanherp | 4AD - CLASS DOCUMENT version 2.1.pdf (212 KB) For those interested I added: 1. a slot for your armor 2. a slot for "slain minions" so you don't loose them when you end your dungeon/adventure (I always keep my minion total when I did not reach the requirement of "10" to make an XP roll) 3. factions 4. a slot for your "beginning" life points (according to your level) | Jun 8, 2020 |
| CLASS DOCUMENT.pdf (209 KB) This is the second version of the pdf, I changed the "border" which was in fact not very good (to say the least). Thanks for telling me, my wife found it outrageous in a fun way. I also added some things that are needed when playing with characters of level 5+ or with the expert skills and/or hired retainers/professionals. The material for this is mostly found in "Four Against the Abyss". These new "mechanisms" are added in a light blue color: patrons, keywords, healed by surgeon. As you probably know you will also need 4 clue tokens when playing with higher level characters, so that is the reason I put one clue token between brackets (and in the same light blue color). If there are other things I forgot, feel free to mention them here. Thanks in advance, Gunter | May 1, 2020 |
| CLASS DOCUMENT.pdf (222 KB) I created this document with the intention to play "Four Against Darkness" as an easy accessible RPG with one of my groups. So because Das Schwarze Auge (the RPG I already play for 35 years with my other group) is less to their liking (too many rules) I thought 4AD would be welcome due to its very high adaptablity. And I liked a "character sheet" that would (hopefully) cover most things on a single sheet (be it two sided). | Apr 26, 2020 |

Four Against Darkness:: One Hundred Levels of Hell By: SomeMadPoet | 100NetherLevelsAndLog.pdf (1.19 MB) This is a set of a hundred different hex maps for use with the official Four Against the Nether expansion. They have not been playtested and I have no idea how well they work. If anyone plays with any of these maps, I'd like hear what they have to say about them. I had meant to upload this two years ago... but forgot about it. It is a bit unfinished. I had wanted to generate place names and special event tables for each map, but I never got around to doing that. If there is enough interest expressed I may go back and finish this project as I originally intended. And hell, I may even release a thousand levels of hell if someone really wants to go that deep. | Jun 6, 2020 |

Four Against Darkness:: Play 4AD in PowerPoint By: snori_strurlusson 24
Four Against Darkness:: Four Against Darkness - The City By: JusticeProctor | 4AD The City 1_1.pdf (5.01 MB) Small update with the following changes: Corrected a few word/formatting errors. Lowered enchantment cost from 1000gp to 500gp. After 4 adventures my adventurers didn't have even close to 1000gp to scrape together; 500gp should be more attainable. Changed the name of Ring of Protection to Guardian Band to avoid confusion with magic item of same name in 4AA. Opened Wand of Magic Missiles to all spellcasters except Conservationists, increased to 4 charges and adjusted cost accordingly. Added a maximum level (9) to minions affected by a Terror Skull. Specified that purchased gems can't be affected by the dwarf's resale ability. Added a cost to rogue's venom. | May 25, 2020 |
| 4AD The City.pdf (4.90 MB) I have been wanting to put together an expanded list of activities to do after an adventure has concluded, especially once you have explored a few dungeons with the same party and have a lot of gold, gems, and jewelry on hand! I have also added in items from the supplements and adventures I currently have, although you'll have to own those volumes to have the rules for using them. I tried to be judicious and left off supplement specific items (like Seals of Purity or Clockwork Chainsaws). Please, please, please, leave feedback, ideas, and corrections! | May 23, 2020 |

Four Against Darkness:: Expanded Treasure List Version 1.0 By: JusticeProctor | 4AD_Expanded_Treasure_List_Version1_1.pdf (88 KB) Decided it was much wiser to go with a PDF file instead, took care of formatting issues. | Apr 24, 2020 |
| 4AD Expanded Treasure List Version1_0.xlsx (12 KB) Instead of a single treasure list for both minor and major monsters, I spread out the list to three different lists! I fit them on one page, with items on the second page for ease of use. For Minor and Medium treasure, it's a lot of coins or cheap gems/jewelry. Major treasure has a 4/6 chance of including a magic item, either minor or standard. I included most of the treasure from the core book, with the exception of the Wand of Sleep, which is a bit too powerful given the core rules. I replaced it in the Minor Magic items table with a Wand of Magic Missiles, which allows a Wizard or Elf to attack with their level as a bonus for a charge. Please try it out and let me know what you think! Edit: Please excuse the second tab with Tomb Monsters! It's a work in progress for an alternate monster encounter list for a Tomb-themed experience. | Apr 23, 2020 |

Four Against Darkness:: 4AD Character Record Sheet (Old School) By: rjstandifer | 4ad_individual_character_record_sheet_v2.pdf (3.06 MB) A one-page record sheet for an individual 4AD character. There is room to record all of the important information related to one character. The original 4AD Play Sheet is great for use during a dungeon adventure, but after the adventure is over you might want a place to record all of the details about each character. Use this record sheet to maintain your stable of characters between adventures. Print this pdf out on mint-green paper for that true "Old School" flavor. v2 - spelling correction | Apr 18, 2020 |
