Original Caves of Chaos as a Mini-Zine!
Hello everyone!
While I am working on the second issue of BTB, I decided to make the original caves of chaos a two-page dungeon as an experiment and a study of the original source material, and this experience happened to be very fruitful to the overall project.
I think I managed to keep at least 90% of the "relevant content" to run the thing: monster stats, room descriptions, treasure, everything. Got rid of some stats like movement, saves, and the number of attacks mostly because of space, but I wouldn't use them anyway. The map is almost an exact representation of the original, the only difference being that I inverted the levels of the goblin caves for aesthetics, but you can ignore that and pretend it's not inverted.
The PDF comes in two color schemes: Blue and BW. It is formatted to print as a mini-zine (A4 turned into an 8-page A7 zine) so the upper text-box is turned into 180 degrees, but at the end you can find the text reverted in case you don't want to assemble a mini-zine.
OBS: This is not a preview of the next issue, as I intend to change the maps and the content to fit the aesthetics and themes of the first issue.
Enjoy!

Is the Caves of Chaos mini-zine no longer available? Not seeing a link on the page any longer, just the BTB#1 link.
Cool! But I don't see it in my files when I go to https://gnarledmonster.itch.io/beyond-the-borderlands-1 The latest file I see is from December.
Wait, if I go down on the product page, I see the file in the demo section. Huh.
Sorry, I forgot to explain that! I've put it as a demo to be available for free for everyone.
