GM Notes

There are no trains in the Battle for Wesnoth video game, at least not any of the campaigns I’ve played. So why do these dwarves have a train? Well, while contemplating this rematch with the dwarves of Untdunben, I rolled on the Mythic GM Emulator’s event meaning tables for inspiration and got Develop and Vehicle. Mining tracks are well-established in the video game, so I decided they weren’t all for carts—some were for trains.

Oh, and if you’re interested in the songs that you heard snippets of from Tric’s player, one was On the Railroad by The Longest Johns (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=udICE0keewk), and the other was an American folk song called Red Iron Ore. We like the version performed by Bob Gibson (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sbt6_gmAfqE).

Our character art by Del Borovic and the map we refer to (by me!) can be found here.
