Alortun: The Crown of Skulls, v2
Publisher: Misfit Studios
by Jim C. [Verified Purchaser]
Date Added: 10/05/2010 01:34:44

The product description more or less sums it up. I would only add that the game mechanics include the Knowledge checks for its various contradictory legends (with an extended method of telling true from false rumours) and the artifact's powers themselves - no prestige class for the elves, for example, though it seems as if it might justify it. A little rough, but with some work on a DM's part, it could form a basis for a good chunk of a campaign.

Sea Dogs of England
Publisher: Goblinoid Games
by Jim C. [Verified Purchaser]
Date Added: 10/04/2010 22:42:01

The first section provides some straightforward action encounters that should run well. The situation on the cover, or inaccurately described in the blurb, is mostly played for laughs through GM narration. Honestly, probably best if your group enjoys a session of comedy.

Two Dozen Discoveries: Scars (PFRPG)
Publisher: LPJ Design
by Jim C. [Verified Purchaser]
Date Added: 10/01/2010 17:43:51

Varying (to high) degrees of gore, real-world reference, game effect and usefulness in this collection of feats that grant both abilities and penalties from different mutilation rituals.

Castles & Crusades Where Cool Waters Run
Publisher: Troll Lord Games
by Jim C. [Verified Purchaser]
Date Added: 10/01/2010 17:32:16

A random encounter with a new creature, not particularly water-related, vividly written and (credit where credit's due) cleanly edited. I found the creature's name a little distracting, but otherwise it's a fine addition.

The Golden Banner (4e)
Publisher: Sneak Attack Press
by Jim C. [Verified Purchaser]
Date Added: 09/30/2010 01:42:25

Interesting setup with more political undercurrents than I often see in 4e. Statistics seem well-crafted at first glance. Editing is a bit rough in places.

Sindbad and the Demon Pumpkin

by Jim C. [Verified Purchaser]
Date Added: 09/27/2010 01:05:58

Sort of, not really .. Provides both comedy and danger in a series of encounters with African mythical beings.

Action-packed and seems to be developing towards more interesting places. What happened to the rest of the series?

Fun memories (with some changes) from the supplements concerned, with not bad execution for game fiction.

MT Arrival Vengance
Publisher: Far Future Enterprises - Traveller
by Jim C. [Verified Purchaser]
Date Added: 09/17/2010 18:08:51

Brief treatment of what ought to be almost an epic voyage, with some areas I wanted to see (the Great Rift and Dark Nebula) not described at all, but the encounters that do have entries are very nicely done.

Sartar Player's Primer
Publisher: Chaosium
by Jim C. [Verified Purchaser]

Very informative introduction to Glorantha, particularly on culture and religion. I didn't see much mention of nonhumans.

Essentially "how to read the ship record form", this gives a useful look at the technology of the setting and space combat system.

The authors know their stuff and express it in d20 rules by some mechanical changes that are worth a look in themselves.

Encounters Series 0: The Priest and the Hangman
Publisher: Corvus Lunaris Ltd
by Jim C. [Verified Purchaser]
Date Added: 09/14/2010 21:00:00

An unusual encounter setup displays a skilful hand for drama and characters. The crowd rules are an interesting look at a fairly well-worn question.

[Spycraft] Strike Force 7
Publisher: Super Genius Games
by Jim C. [Verified Purchaser]
Date Added: 09/14/2010 19:01:26

The Egyptian theme is nicely done and overall Spycraft seems like a good system choice. I thought some of the mechanics were a bit soft. There's an odd tension between mostly following the Saturday morning cartoon genre and a sort of midnight-black reimagining of it that threatens to show through in places - maybe still-lingering hurt suggested by some of the real-world alternatives to "Skorpion" mentioned here and there.

Hammersong's Legacy
Publisher: Samardan Press
by Jim C. [Verified Purchaser]
Date Added: 09/14/2010 18:50:30

Skilfully files the numbers off more recent games and settings for the basic rule set to produce what ought to be a compelling and dangerous field for adventures, as well as a wide-ranging system update. Well bookmarked, but I felt the need of more maps.
