This is it! The new and improved, Deluxe Tunnels & Trolls. T&T is the second ever fantasy role playing game, and the easiest to use. This book contains everything you need to play the game solo (with the many solo adventures) or with a group of friends. Includes a lot of extra material and descriptions of the worlds played in by the designer and his friends back in the late 1970's.

The first 166 pages are the core rules, followed by the Elaborations section which has optional rules and systems you can pick and choose from to add to your T&T games. There is also a 16 page full color section which includes color maps of Trollworld, Khazan, Khosht and Knor along with other paintings and maps.   There is a 50 page Trollworld section that includes descriptions of locations on every major continent and three cities, plus a detailed Trollworld timeline.  The book also includes a solo adventure that gives you the chance to bring dead characters back to life and a GM adventure on the continent of Zorr, plus a detailed weapons glossary and much much more - over 380 pages of material.
 Note that this version of the rules does not yet have the internal links, BUT once we have that done, you will be able to download an updated copy of the PDF for no extra charge.

No it isn't. Actually Ken St. Andre and Steve Crompton have come out with Monsters! Monsters! RPG. This is a ruleset that is similar and very much alive. Their newest book is Monsterary of Zimrala.

I'm interested in this one as potentially a solo gaming experience on the side and noticed you have a lot of solo stuff out which looks excellent. I was wondering if you have any campaign stuff I.E adventures you can take one character through from 1st level up as a lot of the solo adventures seems to be designed only for a specific class?

Thanks for the response!

Let me know if it's something you guys do decide on, I think one of the few things the solo gaming community is missing is a campaign where we are able to build up a character from a struggling nobody to an epic hero and be able to keep a good story continuity.

I forth the request on a POD version via Lulu or even to know a date when a softcover of the Deluxe rules is available ? Only hardcover versions are available in the US and are too expensive to ship to the UK ?
BTW does anyone from DriveThruRPG or FlyingBuffalo actually review and collate feedback from people who post on here requesting items ?
Thanks.

Since hardcovers are quite rare, and the softcover is OOP now according to Flying Buffalo, it's time for POD.

Hello, I'm interested by T&T but I wonder if this rpg is designed to be played with miniatures ? I'm looking for a good solo RPG/Miniature games, seeing in the table of content that there is a section about miniatures, may be your game could be the one I'm looking for.

Damien:

Really delayed answer to your question: not really! T&T is very much a "theater of the mind" game, with the GM describing the situation, players describing character action, and action resolved fairly abstractly. Combat rounds represent up to two minutes of action, and assume the PC and monsters are doing their best in terms of maneuver, feinting and striking and parrying and dodging.

The GM might use a map and miniatures as a visual aid, however.

"Tunnels & Trolls was never designed originally to be used with miniatures,.." Tunnels & Trolls 5th ed. 3.3. For a game from the 1970s that is great with miniatures, check out Fantasy Trip.

Not at all. One of my primary concerns has always been that everything remain at least somewhat compatible.

More than a little disappointed that they didn't give stats for half-elves, despite placing a line for them on the chart detailing expanded kindred types in chapter 13. It also doesn't give stats for half-orcs... although despite those glaring omissions, it DOES give stats for the dwarf/elf hybrid unimaginatively called the dwelf. Aside from that, satisfied with the book so far.

Whether you are new to the game, or a long time player, drop by Vin's T&T TrollBridge ( http://trollbridge.proboards.com/ ). There are boards for all versions of T&T. Come to learn, or teach, or just say hello!

I purchased the print hardcover at MEPACON in PA in March 2017. The book is very well done. The game is classic and great fun. It all in there. I do have one strong disappointment in the book. I don't like that the included solo adventure is based on real world Christian Mythology (Mythology NOT Theology). As a 35 year veteran gamer, and a Christian, I stay away from making a game out such things. I don't even use demons in my games. And I bought T&T specifically to play solo. I know I am the minority but there it is. You know, considering the casual posture the game rules tend to lean toward I was completely surprised in the choice the publishers made as the background in the solo adventure. This is not casual fare at all. Disappointing for me. I wound not have purchased the book for this reason if I had I taken a closer look.

This is just my PERSONAL view on background choice for the included solo adventure and not a reflection on the quality of the game or the physical book. Fans of T&T...See more

I'll just add that none of our other solo have any Christian mythology in them. We specifically put this solo in the rule book so that players would always have a way to try to bring back a character that died. However I understand why some find that solo a uncomfortable. No insult was ever intended - the solo was originally written in 1981 as I recall.

While printed versions are already available through Amazon, retail game stores, Flying Buffalo, etc... will a printed version be offered through rpnnow.com?

I was going to buy this but it says "Watermarked pdf". How is this watermarked? Is there going to be a stamp on every page? Is it just when you print it or is it even when reading it on an iPad or any pdf viewer? At $20 bucks if its obnoxious to read it I'd rather just spend the $40 and buy the softback version.

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.

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.
