"An introductory fantasy board game published in White Dwarf issue #15 (reprinted in The Best of White Dwarf Articles (Volume I)).
One player controls a single barbarian ("Vaarn") searching the "outlands" for the shield and sword of the "Old Fathers" while the other player controls various creatures in attempt to thwart Vaarn.
