These powerful characters have powerful foes, known as the awnsheghlien, the champions of the world's evil bloodlines. People with strong bloodlines make natural leaders, and while great, valorous deeds can enhance a character's bloodline and increase the character's power, failure can cause a character's bloodline to wane. The set includes the concept of bloodlines, hereditary magical powers which tie a family line to various domains in the form of land, temples, or political organizations. The set includes a new system for resolving large battles between fantasy armies, using cards to represent various regiments and a position sheet to indicate things such as which side is holding the line and which is on the flank. The Birthright Campaign Setting contains three books, a ref screen, two maps, over 100 cards to use for playing out large battles, and a dozen reference cards, all in full color.

This product introduced the Birthright campaign setting.
