A Day at the Races

Alternate Crit & Fumble System
Can't afford to offer free anymore but this is an alternate crit & fumble system and it's a bit more elegant that my other system. This one calls for a percentile roll in addition to the roll to hit, percentage chance of critting or fumbling is dependent on the difference between the to hit number and the to hit die result. Any hit can be a crit and any miss a fumble. In addition, first level puds have a chance of critting without rolling multiple 20's.
A Treatise on Magic and RPGs
Magic is inimical to most if not all fantasy and is featured in some other genres as well. "A Treatise" discusses magic systems from various rulesets briefly, addresses magic use in general in RPGs and proposes a novel sysatem for handling magic, aracane and divine.

Bresium: The Jungle Amazons
To the west and south of the Confederacy lies the tropical land of Bresium, governed by a gynarchy. The people who tamed Bresium were normal men and women bringing their families to find hope and peace in a new land. Disaster, however, befell the settlers in the form of a wasting disease unique to the jungles of Bresium. After an exposure of several weeks, all the males died off. Not willing to return to their lands of origin, the women remained to establish a new nation, one ruled by women.

Crits & Fumbles
I'm putting this one up for a lower price because it's your basic nat/fumble table, though there aare some nasty consequences. It's an original.
Crusaders Gauntlet
Crusaders Gauntlet was written when Castles & Crusades had just hit the shelves. It was written as a demo module back when I had a brain and was considered by the Troll Lords when there was talk of organized demo teams. It was rewritten for their Aihrde setting and repitched and was not what they were looking for. So, their loss is your gain. This is a tough adventure for low level characters.
Deluxe Revised Recon Character Sheet
This one's a beaut. Showed some of my new group Palladium's Deluxe Revised Recon and they were, "we have to play this sometime." So, being the contientious GM (or, in this case, MD) that I am, I did a close perusal of the rules and discovered there was no character sheet! Now this is no barebones sheet, detailing such things as serial number, handedness, hometown,history "in the world" and quite a few other items not explicity covered in the rules.
Ersa: The Empiire of Heaven
Ersa (called "Nanji" by its natives) is the southern continent of the "known" world of Ert (interestingly, the name of the planet is pronounced the same in all languages). Nearly all of its land mass is occupied and controlled by the Empire of Heaven (Tengoku no Teikoku), a land of oriental character. Three additional areas on the continent are worth noting. The first is a foothill region backed by mountains to the coast occupied by savage hill tribes, known as Ryuu no...
Ert Religions
The creation myth described in the earlier chapter is written from a Paxian perspective. It differs to a greater or lesser degree depending upon the language, culture or race of the teller. Paxian and Venician are spoken almost universally on the continent of Ropa. The only cultures that deviate on Ropa from the Paxian myth are the Eddans and Kraeldonians. Different deities are paramount in Prissia and Venicia, but the myth is essentially the same. Dwarves and gnomes share the Stone Father...

Golanda: The Kingdom of Hope
The Kingdom of Hope is a benevolent theocracy under the administration of Renowned Healer Henry Alan of Tarn's Cross. The Renowned Healer is not married, but he entertains a consort named Clarice the Nimble and accorded great honor. By law, the Renowned Healer must be a cleric of Samariachau, though temples and shrines to other gods abound. The country is split into twelve administrative regions each headed by a Benevolent Healer. By tradition, the Benevolent Healer of the Lumina Temple...
Handy Little Handbook of Bad Things That Can Happen to Good Characters (OK, They Don’t Have to be Good)
Here's a nifty little booklet with which to harass your players. Six tables with evil little mishaps. I've also enlarged the font so it will print out in booklet form in a more readable size. I'm learning (I think) as I go along.
Ivory Pearl Archipelago: The Reaver Kingdom
The Kingdom of the Ivory Pearl is ruled by robber barons, pirates, more accurately. It is a kingdom of islands currently ruled by a ruthless Queen. There are 19 islands in the kingdom, seven with sizable harbors. An “earl,” six in number, controls each harbored island. “Barons” rule thirteen islands. There are no rules of succession; might makes right. Queen Captain Hester the Reaper rules the kingdom with an iron fist. Her carrack fitted for war, the “Bonny...

KISS: Keep It Simple System
This is the new, clarified, revised, reorganized and augmented system taking into account the valuable criticism from the initial free download. These rules contain a new Keeper's Section and a player character sheet including room for a narrative character back story. Once again, I've done a revision based on a module I've written for the system. However, both are now in the hands of playtesters. I'm re-releasing the rules system, but I'll wait on the playtest results for the module. The...
Kraeldonia: The Dual Monarchy
Kraeldonia is another strange land on Ert. There are three distinct, cohesive groups in this land, the highland clans, the dwarven holds and the lowland freeholders. The people of the lowlands are generally either farmers or fishermen or maritime raiders. Those of the lowlands pay nominal fealty to King Magnus in Hightor, though they run their affairs with little heed from the highland clans.
