Castles of Orbaal

Castles of Orbaal, subtitled "Arathel, Marby, Pled, Sherwyn", is a supplement published by Columbia Games in 1992 for the fantasy tabletop role-playing setting Hârn that describes four castles in one of the regions of the game.
Contents
Orbaal is a northern region of Hârn where viking clans from Ivinia have taken control. Castles of Orbaal describes four castles in the region, providing information about the current castle owners and notable non-player characters, as well as complete floor plans of the castles and maps of the lands surrounding each castle.
In Issue 76 of the French games magazine Casus Belli, Mathias Twardowski was not impressed that much of the information about the province of Orbaal had already been published in the supplement Orbaal, commenting, "this supplement leaves a rather unpleasant aftertaste of sloppy completion. The castles are superbly described and detailed, especially the very original Sherwyn, but a large portion of the booklet is taken up with a new version of the description of the kingdom of Orbaal (already presented in Orbaal). This version, while better done, in no way deserved to be included in this supplement and seems to be there only to pad out this long-announced supplement."
