CHA4050 The Apple Lane Campaign (2026)

Artist, Ossi Hiekkala

Your First Adventures In The Mythic World Of Glorantha!

RuneQuest: The Apple Lane Campaign is designed for new players and gamemasters, and presents a thrilling beginner campaign set in the aftermath of the war between the free peoples of Sartar and the dreaded Lunar Empire.

  • A three-part campaign in which a group of adventurers come together to defend the hamlet of Apple Lane, claim it as their home, and perhaps even rule over it!
  • A collection of all-new encounters in Sartar, including an old-school-style random table and also a rich array of adventure seeds for each and every possible encounter.
  • Expanded adventure seeds to carry on the campaign yourself, such as crossing paths with a talking baboon, a singing ball of sentient cake, and others that highlight the uniqueness of the world of RuneQuest.
  • Setting information covering the Colymar tribe, and details on the famous movers and shakers in Sartar.
  • Details of the iconic village Apple Lane and its surrounding environs, including rumors to investigate, dungeons to explore, and little mysteries to solve.
  • Rules for Gloranthan rune metals and magic crystals, a collection of maps, and more!

Embark on your quest and begin to explore the world of myth, might, and magic! This book requires the RuneQuest Rulebook to use. The content in this book can be enhanced with other titles such as Lands of RuneQuest: Dragon Pass, Lands of RuneQuest: Sartar, and the Cults of RuneQuest series.
