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!

  1. Sweet! I ordered two copies (might as well, the shipping charges alone were almost double the price of a single unit, so what the heck); that way I'll still have a nice copy when I've worn the covers off of the first one! ;-)

  2. Awesome Jeff, and thanks again for your kind offer of editing help. No crying when I reach out to you for editing, you offered! ;)

    I will be posting the Frostcrawl separately as a download as it is NOT included in the pocket book as it was way to small to be of any use

    1. No problem! I wouldn't have volunteered if I wasn't prepared to do the work. I just hope I'm useful to the project... ;-)

      I still hope Frostcrawl will appear in the combined hard-back version as an addition -- it is a fascinating little hexcrawl and also shows people how to make one of their own. Now if you could just get the others out there reconfigured as B&BM crawls in different parts of Zemja! (hint, hint...)

  3. (In fact, it occurs to me that if you were to include your April 11th post's map and about three or four paragraphs talking about how you generated the terrain and then populated the various hexes, along with your final Frostcrawl adventure in the combined B&BM hardback version, you would have just created a very clear example for inexperienced folks (and those unfamiliar with Hexcrawls/Sandboxes) to use to create their own. That would be incredible -- though it might be too much extra work; that I don't know...)

  4. Jeff and Narmer-that is an interesting idea, though it may be better as a Cauldron article? While I do intend to include Frostcrawl in the hardback BBM, the why and how details seem more appropriate to a deconstruction article in Cauldron than potentially cluttering an instructional rule book. I could certainly be wrong though. I appreciate the good idea!

    1. Point taken -- that WOULD be a better place for it -- and would give you more room to talk everyone through it!

    2. Yeah, it would be better as an article.
