Description
A fantasy role-playing game that brings a host of innovative elements to the classic RPG genre. This core rulebook covers every aspect of the game—character attributes, skills, abilities, weapons, combat, magic—all approached in a unique and unconventional way. For instance, the game features a complex system for resolving social conflicts, a sophisticated reward mechanic, and an abstract system for tracking character wealth. Its most distinctive feature is the set of rules governing personal character goals and ideals. All you need to play is paper, a pencil, and standard six-sided dice.
The rules are written in engaging English, and the book spans over 300 pages with black-and-white illustrations. We highly recommend it to all fans of fantasy role-playing games; it is a true gem of the RPG world. The game was named RPG of the Year 2003 by reviewers at Gaming Report.com

Truly inspiring reading for all fantasy RPG lovers, especially those trying to create their own role-playing game or who enjoy homebrewing rules. It's an A5-sized book, making it perfect for reading on the go, even on the tram. The English is accessible; if your language skills are at least intermediate, you'll have no trouble reading it with the occasional look at a dictionary.
Skutečně inspirativní čtení pro všechny milovníky fantasy rpg, zejména pto ty, kteří se snaží vytvořit vlastní hru na hrdiny nebo si rádi upravují pravidla. Jedná se o knížku ve formátu A5, takže ideální počtení třebas na cestu tramvají. Angličina je zde čtivá, pokud zvládáte jazyk alespoň průměrně, s občasným nahlédnutím do slovníku nebudete mít se čtením problém.
