What is Heroes & Other Worlds?

Heroes & Other Worlds is a game of adventure inspired by Metagaming's classic Melee/Wizard/TFT system combined with inspiration from the Moldvay edited basic game. The rules are easy to learn and use standard six sided dice. The system is simple, sensible and flexible in the spirit of classic role playing games from the early 80's. Become a Hero, Other Worlds await!

JOURNEY TO RAEDWALD!


Well on a cold Winter's Solstice...the shortest day of the year...RAEDWALD releases!  Lee has written a fantastic grim and gritty Saxon setting!  This is not your high fantasy skipping elves and all powerful wizards...this is mud, blood, backstabbing and brutal deeds by characters with nothing to lose.  The Heroes & Other Worlds system matches up nicely with Lee's work as combat is deadly and they system supports grim fantasy well. Remember, RAEDWALD requires the HEROES & OTHER WORLDS rulebook to play!

I want to than Lee for letting me publish RAEDWALD and appreciate all the time, effort, and inspiration he poured into RAEDWALD.  I'd like to thank Doug Anderson for the fantastic RAEDWALD cartography bringing Lee's land to life!  I'd also like to thank Luigi Castellani for his art contributions...and last but certainly not least, my lovely wife for her patience and support as I worked at times when she would rather I was doing something else.

You can purchase RAEDWALD now and if you use promo code LULUEMP2013 you can get 40% off!  I used the code a few minutes ago to order hard copies for Lee and I...so I know it works, but I do not know for how long nor can I guarantee it works in every country, sorry.

Now Christmas is here and the New Year too!  I am going to spend time with family and friends, and I hope you get to as well!  THANK YOU for all your support this year and for playing Heroes & Other Worlds.  From my wife and I, all the best to you and yours this holiday season!

      Don't undersell your contribution, Chris. You've done a lot of work with my very rough MS and made it look great. Not to mention without your efforts there wouldn't be a print version of Redwald period. Thanks again for everything you've put into making Redwald a reality. Much appreciated.
