Based upon the brilliant Fudge RPG and crafted to faithfully reflect the genre, By This Axe brings you sword and sorcery roleplaying at its gory best. BTA does not take place in another flavorless S&S setting or a weak imitation of the Hyborian Age; instead, it is set on Earth in 500 B.C.E. Be warned, though, for in BTA the magic, monsters, and gods are real! Here are just a few of the awesome things you can expect from By This Axe:
- Character generation that ensures players can create heroes and not just fresh-off-the-farm yokels
- Fast and exciting combat in which enemies can be slain by a single blow
- A powerful magic system fueled by life force and shaped by 10 schools of magic
- Miracles granted by the gods and limited only by their caprice
- An economy tied to each character's Status trait
- Extensive price lists for important goods and services
- A bestiary containing 33 detailed creatures that are ready for action
- Introductions to nine important cultures that provide a tremendous feel for the setting
- 50+ pieces of excellent, black and white art that are evocative of the setting and genre
- A detailed relief map that identifies the most important empires, kingdoms, cities, and tribes surrounding the Mediterranean in 500 B.C.E.
By This Axe is all you'll ever need for endless sword and sorcery action and adventure.
Price: $9.00
