Over a dozen books were published under the original Atlas Games edition of Feng Shui, and many fans cherish their action-packed contents to this day. Indeed, when Feng Shui 2 was announced, there were some who raised the important question: would this new edition make obsolete their copies of Seal of the Wheel or On Location or Blood of the Valiant — to name just three? The answer is here: the Feng Shui 2 Conversion Codex! Armed with your Crazy Pack of PDFs (or your much-loved and dog-eared print copies of those very same books) and this document, you can bring old adventures to life, revisit mysterious locations, exchange blows with legions of faceless mooks, and take down bosses and other bad guys with bullet-time bravura. Nothing is ever obsolete, just in need of a fresh coat of chrome and a fountain of chi energy. KI-YAAAAAH! How To use This Book

This codex is separated into chapters, each linked to a first editionFeng Shui sourcebook or product. Every stat block is presented in FS2 format and in the order in which it appears in the older material. We’ve designed the layout so that you can pull it up with ease on a tablet or laptop, or just print out the pages you need. Note: This book does not convert or reproduce any additional rules, archetypes, or gear from these books unless otherwise listed. Eyeballing these should be a piece of cake, however. Feng Shui
