Conversion Guide

I would love for there to be a conversion guide between The Third Horizon and The Great Dark. Both settings offer something unique, but you can notice sometimes that The Third Horizon is one of the earlier Year Zero Engine games.

Totally hear you! Both The Third Horizon and The Great Dark have their own strengths, and a conversion guide would be awesome for bridging the gap. Here's the thing: since The Third Horizon is an earlier Year Zero Engine game, there might not be an official conversion guide.
Here are some additional things to consider:

Themes: Think about the thematic differences between the two games. What kind of challenges and threats exist in The Great Dark compared to The Third Horizon? This can help you adapt existing content for a more immersive experience.
Power Levels: The Great Dark might have a higher power level overall. You might need to adjust stats or abilities from The Third Horizon to avoid making them overpowered in The Great Dark.
Remember, there's no single "right" way to handle conversions. The key is to get creative and have fun adapting the content to fit your Year Zero Engine campaign.

Forgive the necro, but running into this myself. I excited for the Black Friday sale, ordered three adventures, but they're for Third Horizon, and I have The Great Dark. I don't even know how to begin converting between them, mechanically and lorewise. FL Customer Service doesn't have anything either; can any Coriolis experts point me towards anything for converting?

Hi!

We're planning e conversion pdf, but haven't really started it. I can't give you a reliable ETA at the moment, but we will post it in an update on the Kickstarter when it's done.

That's fantastic news! I got the three adventures for The Third Horizon when they were on sale for Black Friday, so I am sure you can imagine my feelings when everything there was just so foreign.

Hi,

Any news on the conversion document from Free League's end? I'm hoping to run a Third Horizon game in the near-ish future and am keen on using the GD rules for it.
