Hale's Guide to the Front - A Player's Handbook

A Frost Wars Companion

Book Description (KDP Page)

War is not glory.
War is work.

Hale's Guide to the Front is a player companion for the Frost Wars campaign setting, written for groups who want to explore war honestly rather than romantically. Instead of heroic conquest and cinematic victories, this handbook focuses on the labour of holding the line.

In Frost Wars the battlefield is not just fought over with rifles and steel. It is fought over with dry socks, working supply lines, functioning equipment and the fragile endurance of the people ordered to stand in the cold while history moves somewhere else.

Inside this companion you will find:

- Rules for exhaustion, morale and psychological pressure
- Equipment systems where survival depends on maintenance and preparation
- Infantry roles such as the Trench-Warden, the Whistler and the Sentry
- Backgrounds drawn from real labour: dock workers, rail hands and displaced civilians
- Procedures for managing watches, supply, containment and long campaigns on the frozen front

This is not a book about winning wars. It is a book about surviving them. If you want heroic fantasy where courage guarantees victory, look elsewhere. If you want a tabletop campaign where the line holds because someone must stand there, then Hale's Guide to the Front will show you how.

Join the line.
