It's good to be the king.


Description: In d20 fantasy games, characters can gain power with spells, swords, stealth, and supplications. Yet this power rarely extends beyond the character's personal capabilities. Empire introduces rules for founding and building a political realm and carefully tending it from a tiny barony to a sprawling realm. Empire injects an epic level of action into a d20 campaign, allowing the players to take the roles of kings, worldwide religious leaders, archmages, and criminal masterminds while handing DMs the tools needed to challenge such powerful figures.

A complete new d20 system for founding, managing, and running a political entity such as a kingdom, church, or criminal cartel.

  • Rules for mass combat to simulate the clash of arms as the characters seek to expand their power and crush hordes of orcs and demons that seek to destroy the realms they have worked so hard to build.
  • New prestige classes designed to interact with the rules for mass combat and kingdoms, allowing characters to take the mantle of great generals, wise kings, and political masterminds.
  • New feats and spells designed for use by characters and spell casters who lead nations and command armies.
  • New magic items, skills, and other abilities designed explicitly for use in political adventures.
  • A complete DM's toolkit including rules for orc armies, demonic invasions, magical cataclysms, and other tremendous dangers that threaten the realms the PCs rule.

Empire had some interesting ideas but in my opinion failed to deliver them adequately. The rules as-is can't create a believable, medieval world. They need some work from the DM. As an example, the population growth is so high that easily beats the mod [...]

From a GM perspective I enjoy the book. It helps me with world creation and a few details that was over looked. Adds to big picture role playing. If you enjoy details from the top to the bottom, and with game mechanics. [...]

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.
