Player's Secrets of Khourane

Set in the land of the cultured Khinasi, Khourane is a domain for a player regent with dense jungles inhabited by xenophobic elves and mysterious legends, bordered by malevolent awnshegh.[1] As with all of the Player's Secrets series, the cover doubles for a series of maps of the domain and layouts of the Ernira's palace.[1]

David Comford reviewed Player's Secrets of Khourane for Arcane magazine, rating it an 8 out of 10 overall.[1] He comments that "The Player's Secrets series is a mixed bunch – thankfully, though, this latest release is one of the better volumes."[1] He describes Khourane as "exotic and exciting" and feels that "The true strength of Khourane, however, is in its exoticism. After a series of campaigns set virtually in the same surroundings, players and referees alike begin to feel the need for a change, and I for one usually slip in an adventure or two from another games system to break up the monotony of it all. Birthright gets around this problem by opening up a number of differing lands to adventurers."[1] Comford commented that "Khourane has a distinctly Arabian flavor exhibiting a refreshingly different culture, and in addition the populace has a humane outlook on life - together these factors make an excellent change of flavor during a campaign or series of adventures. The domain has plenty of potential for all manner of internal adventures, and additional aspects such as a mysteriously sealed dwarven city can be woven into an existing campaign."[1] He found that the maps on the cover were "handy" and "well-drawn" and found that "The supplement itself is also very well structured and thankfully easy to read."[1] Comford concluded the review by saying "It is a pity that the profiles of the bordering awnshegh aren't presented because they exert a considerable influence over the domain, but [...] The Player's Secrets of Khourane is nevertheless well worth a look."[1]
