To that end, Pelgrane Press has a new book coming out entitled [I]High Magic and Low Cunning: Battle Scenes for Five Icons, [/I]which contains no less than 45 set piece battle encounters designed for various tiers of play. These battle scenes are connected to five of the setting's thirteen Icons: the Orc Lord, Prince of Shadows, Archmage, High Druid, and The Three.
