The Novel " MUS OF KERBRIDGE" was set in the Lace and Steel world. A second edition was released by Pharos Press.Īn adventure module, "Castle Keitel" was released by TAGG, but Pharos never re-released this adventure booklet. L&S came out through an Australian company called TAGG. Lace and Steel also included psychology systems that simulated love, hate and loyalty – the meat of any good swashbuckling romance. As a writer, I wanted a combat system that could provide a dramatic climax to an adventure (as opposed to the D&D style where endless fights are the meat of the story). As a fencer, I wanted a game system that had the actual cut and thrust of sword fighting. The game was unusual in having a card based combat system. Cavaliers and Roundheads, Armadas and adventures. This was a game of magic and mystery, of musketeers and Machiavellian politics. Supplements included a starship system and two damned cool scenarios – " The Drift" and " Zho Chaka".Ī rip roaring swashbuckler set in the world of " Mittelmarch" – a world based on our own 1640’s. Second edition ALBEDO included material by Craig Hilton. The system has extremely quick, realistic combat systems, and was unique in having systems that simulated character psychology. A "hard" SF setting peopled by genetically constructed animal characters.
This game was based on the ALBEDO comics by Steve Gallacci. Oh and did I mention the annoying magical pets? A magical sword actually has three levels of power, each of which is gained only by trading widgets to strange mentors. Think Video Game! Characters should be given gems or power ups. This little secret makes each game and each group of players a unique experience.ĭONT think RPG. One secret of this game is that the player characters in effect define their fantasy world and the adventures they will undergo. The ideal campaign will draw on the best elements of anime shows such as “Rayearth”, “Fushugi Yuugi”, “Escaflowne”, “Those Who Hunt Elves” and “El Hazard”. MWSSK has essential ‘anime’ elements designed to give the game the right ‘feel’! This is a game of posing of spectacular attacks and weird magic, recurring enemies and tragic love. So! Here’s a game system designed to handle this type of campaign. In these stories, a group of ordinary Japanese high-school students are always transported to a magical fantasy world where they find themselves acting as mystic champions serving to save that world from evil. “Magical Warrior Star-Soul Knights” is both a celebration and a parody of the anime “magical world” adventure genre. MWSSK can be downloaded ‘free’ from the Goodies page. A third system, " DELVERS" is supposedly coming out soon (art by TAB, inspiration from Anime). Over time, I have had two RPG systems published. I still run RPG campaigns once or twice a week. Started out with WRG ancients, Empire of the Petal Throne, and those little brown D&D books. I’ve been a devotee since – ooh, lessee…. Wargames, role playing games – you name it.
