Just three quests? Okay it's just an honorary title. I thought it might be like the 'retirement' rules for Necromunda gangs and Warhammer Quest characters.

If your characters become too tough there are some very difficult missions in the expansion games.

I used to pair the barbarian with the wizard.

Some of the expansions are quite tough, it might be difficult to source the ogres and human warriors. The wizards are all unique, so any wizard figures will do.

One thing you should probably avoid are the rules for hiring human mercenaries. They are pretty tough and quite cheap, a few of these will make clearing out most dungeons very easy for the adventurers.

Here are my adventurers.

Well check the rules for mercenaries for yourself, but they are easily abused by smart kids.

I had the expanded heroquest set, with the mercenaries and a sheet with a multi-map mission for 9p in a charity shop. I had to practically force them to take £1 for it because I felt bad, it was only missing the gargoyle, which I already have.

This was the same place that gives away magazines because they can't sell them. I had a stack of old white dwarfs, proper ones now from the late 80s with 1st ed Space Hulk articles and stuff, and Dragon magazines. Again had to almost force them to take a quid for them. It's a charity shop, if I'm offering why won't they take??
