The ENGINES & EMPIRES CORE RULES for Gaslamp Fantasy Tabletop Adventure Campaigns bring steam tech to the Old School Renaissance! If you like the idea of mages in goggles and top hats, fighters with six-shooters and clockwork armor, or mad scientists killing dragons with lightning guns and phlogiston bombs, then this is the game for you!
In E&E, you'll find a game with familiar rules and a Victorian vibe, where elves can rub elbows with mechanical men and goblins can prospect for gold in a fairy-tale Old West. But it's pure old-school, so you should expect the following:
• Just a few basic character classes: the fighter, rogue, mage, scholar, and tech.
• Mages cast fairy-tale magic in the form of cantrips, spells, and elaborate rituals. Techs can build amazing devices based off of their gadget blueprints, chemical formulas, and invention schematics!
• Typical for OSR games, character generation is 3d6-in-order, Armor Class gets better as the number gets lower, the demihumans are character classes (optionally play as an elf, goblin, dwarf, or ogre), the treasure is worth XP, and 0 hp means dead!
• 87 pages of classic monsters! Contend with abominations and eldritch horrors, animals, chimeras and dragons, constructs and automata, fae and nature spirits, humanoids and giants, planar and elemental spirits, plants and oozes, and of course the restless undead!
• A complete game all in one encyclopediac tome!
