Eldritch Ass Kicking Classic RPG

ADD TO WISHLIST >

Behold, the once-fair land of Anhelm has been torn asunder. Mad wizards, dark and powerful, waged war and almost all was lost. To save themselves from the machinations of those crazed fools, the neighboring kingdoms banished Anhelm to a distant astral realm. Here we fight for our lives. The wizards still plot each other's downfall. Dark times have indeed fallen upon us. We fear this war will continue until only one wizard remains...


Lo, thou ist cruisin for thine bruisin!


Originally released as a softcover by Mystic Ages Publishing, this classic PDF download contains all the rules needed to create power mad wizards; battle insane arcane foes; draw henchmen, magickal constructs, and even demons to your side; and form deadly alliances and cabals. Gameplay is fast and furious, using two 10-sided dice and your descriptive imagination. There are no spells or pre-defined magickal effects -- just your imagination describing boiling balls of water, streaks of flaming arrows, earthen shields of stone, and whirling cyclones of death rushing toward your ill-fated foe.

"In sum, I really liked this game when it first came out, and now I love it. The freer-form magic got me hooked, but what kept me on the line is the subtle humor of the game. I love irony, more so than magic in an rpg. People tend to (if they’ve heard of it) seriously underestimate this game, treating it as an episodic, beer-and-pretzels game. Now it can more readily support long-term play, but people might still dismiss it as just another comedy rpg. It’s a funny game, but it’s even funnier than it might appear at first glance."

I know that it has been a long time since this was released, revised and updated, but I was wondering if there are still any plans on creating a new edition or print version? It seems like a game that's right up my alley!

Hi. A new edition is in its early stages of development, but there is no set release date. No print version is planned for this classic edition.

Any chance we can see a printed version?
Rules are light enough to not require it, but I like physical stuff.

I'm not sure. I may just wait for a new edition to do another print version.

Should be "thou art." You are, thou art. Possibly "thou beest." Ist wouldn't be proper. "Is" would be third person, while the "est" ending is only applied to second-person verbs. "If he doth insult me again, he is cruisin' for a bruisin', thou art cruisin' for the same if thou dost insult me."

Just going by the original phrasing. Didn't want to change it. It's also not a literal game :)

Original phrasing would be better rendered as "Thou'rt cruisin' for a bruisin'." "Thou ist cruisin' for thine bruisin'" would be "You is cruisin' for your bruisin'." Far less pithy. And the Shakespearean actors will wedgie you in your wizard robes. You don't want that, surely?

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
