However, now I'm in at the £30 level for a hardback rulebook and loads of extras from the stretch goals. Even if you never envisage playing the game, some of the extras and add-ons look like they would work well with other systems.
Here's a link to the Kickstarter: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/2036759092/maelstrom-domesday-rpg
And here's some of the blurb:
The Maelstrom RPG was first published in 1984 and remains a classic to this day. Fast and innovative mechanics, evocative characters, flexible magic and the preeminent RPG herbal made this a game ahead of its time.
Now it is time to bring this classic game to a new generation of gamers with a brand new edition. Arion Games are taking the core Maelstrom game and reworking it with:
Lifepath Character Creation
Revised and updated Game rules
Expanded rules for magic, The Maelstrom and the supernatural
A comprehensive guide to life in 1086
A complete regional setting
This Kickstarter just gets better. Here's what the latest £6k stretch goal adds to the package:
ReplyDelete...if in the last frantic few days we can reach £6K, all Hardback or above backers will get a copy of an A2 colour poster map of England in 1086, again by the peerless Steve Luxton. This map will show areas of interest, mystery and danger.
