The Ruined Empire

ADD TO WISHLIST >

ONCE THE LAND HELD MANY NATIONS, but recent decades have seen two great empires arise, each locked in a struggle to the death for supremacy. In the east lies the Imperial Dynasty of Azumi, the Iron Empire. Expanding ever westward, it absorbs all nations that lie in its path as it hungrily devours the resources of the land to fuel the engines of industry. In the west lies the Jahga Republic of Enlightened Peoples. Expanding eastward, it seeks to bring civilization and self-determination to nations that have not yet embraced the principles of enlightened rule that govern their empire. As it stands, only a handful of resisting nations remain even nominally independent, forming a scant buffer between these two implacably expanding forces.

The Ruined Empire is a system-neutral campaign setting and source book set in a land of five nations in conflict, ripe with adventure and danger and contains:

An original campaign setting, inspired by Final Fantasy and common anime tropes, written with an eye toward social issues
 Campaign creation hooks
 Conversion guides and system hacks for use in starting campaigns with various systems

It’s too early for me to review it yet (24 hour requirement). So I’ll just say this in hopes it keeps people from thinking the product was misrepresented. It’s not. Rather there are three pdfs in the zip file. It was a little confusing trying to move them to the iPad books app, but it’s all fine now. I’m looking forward to diving into it.

Hi! I'm reading the CC-released alpha document and I'm loving it! However some parts of it refer to TBZ, Which I do not own. Is knowledge of TBZ still needed to fully understand the setting? Does it come with conversion notes for specific systems, or is it just in general?

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.
