  • LOOKING for FANTASY? Fantasy Ð from Ancient Myths to Popular Films, Sto- Ries of Heroes and Magic Have Captured the Human Imagination
    LOOKING FOR FANTASY? Fantasy – from ancient myths to popular films, sto- ries of heroes and magic have captured the human imagination. Now GURPS offers roleplayers a com- prehensive guide to the entire Fantasy genre. Building on the flexible, streamlined Fourth Edition rules, it helps you develop a campaign to explore the world of your favorite book or film – or create a new one from your own dreams. The main emphasis is on historical fantasy, in settings from the Bronze Age to the Renaissance, but the principles apply to any fantasy setting, from the prehistoric past to the remote future. A complete campaign setting, Roma Arcana, is ready to use in your own campaign. It can stand on its own, or fit into the Infinite Worlds campaign frame- work from GURPS Fourth Edition. Send a band of adventurers on impossible missions in a magical Roman Empire, as they struggle to hold back the darkness from their native city and win honor. You’ll find help in running your campaign in Roma Arcana or any other setting – advice on creating bal- anced parties, devising scenarios to challenge them, and using the game systems to achieve dramatic effects. Take the most flexible, most consistent game rules system available, and use it to run the campaign of your dreams. This PDF is the latest edition of GURPS Fantasy. All known errata at the time of the creation of this edition have been incorporated into this document.

  • EABA Owes a Debt to the Role-Playing Games That Have Gone Before
    OTHER CREDITS: In addition, EABA owes a debt to the role-playing games that have gone before. These may have themselves had inspiration from other role-playing games, but I'm just crediting the ones that inspired me. Dungeons & Dragons®(1974), by Dave Arneson and Gary Gygax, for starting the idea of formal role-playing systems, as well as for some of the most fundamental game mechanics like attributes, skill rolls, and so on. Every role-playing game owes something to Dungeons & Dragons. Champions®(1981), by George MacDonald and Steve Peterson, for internally consistent and intuitive game mechanics, point-based adventurer creation and attribute- based defaults. From beginning as a ™ EABA v1.0 superhero game it has morphed into ©2002 by Greg Porter the Hero System®(1984), a quite good ISBN 0-943891-38-8 universal system.
