About This Adventure

In the shadow of the Zagros Mountains, 636 AD, you are Ardashir, spahbed of Persia's eastern frontiers, as the mighty Sassanid Empire teeters on collapse. Arab hordes under the Rashidun Caliphate surge across the Euphrates, chanting holy verses, their numbers swelling like desert storms. Scouts whisper of vulnerabilities in their vanguard, but your fractured nobility debates: stand at Al-Qadisiyyah's bloody ford or retreat to fortified passes?
