Absolutely! They were the first Hero Wars thing that I ran*. In fact, the first
session was done with Runequest, as HW didn't exist then.
- Well, a game based on the beginning of Borderlands anyway. What I ended up
running wasn't *that* much like what was in the Borderlands box. I found that
the new system made it possible for me to emphasise a few different things to
the original scenarios: the difficulties of setting up the fort construction
site, outbreaks of disease, relationships with the locals. It extended things a
little beyond just beating up broo, ducks, etc.
It's a shame that 2/3 players left town. It was shaping up to be a good game.
