The Five Points has grown accustomed to hardship, yet the drawing of names has brought a sharper fear, one that reaches into every crowded room and narrow stair, for the draft does not care for circumstance, and so men vanish not by knife or debt but by decree, and in this pressure something unlikely begins to take shape, as two powers that would never openly align find cause in a common purpose, for the merchants who count coin and the assassins who count silence begin to move in quiet concert, arranging papers, altering records, removing obstacles with a precision that leaves little trace, and where once the district could only endure, it now finds moments of reprieve, names struck from lists, officials persuaded or displaced, and routes opened for those who would otherwise be taken, yet such acts cannot remain hidden forever, for the authorities grow wary of the irregularities, uptown interests see their influence challenged, and whispers spread that this union of trade and shadow is not merely charity but the beginning of something more deliberate, a structure capable of shaping the fate of the streets, and as pressure mounts from every side, the alliance itself begins to strain, for coin demands return and blades demand purpose, and you stand within this fragile endeavor, where mercy must be measured against consequence, and where every life saved may draw the attention that ends it.

CRONACHE DELLA COLONIA
Non è un gioco di regole complesse, ma un’esperienza di sopravvivenza narrata che si impadronisce del tavolo in pochi minuti. Con un solo dado a sei facce, un foglio di carta e una matita, potrai dare vita al tuo militare in appena due minuti e iniziare a giocare entro cinque. Il tutto è racchiuso in un elegante formato ZINE:

Un singolo foglio A4 europeo stampato solo fronte che, seguendo le semplici istruzioni di piegatura incluse, si trasforma in un mini-libretto portatile di otto pagine in formato A7.

Un gioco di ruolo completo che sta nel portafoglio, pronto per essere giocato ovunque, senza bisogno di manuali ingombranti o schede interminabili.
Il sistema è progettato per scomparire, lasciando spazio solo alla tensione, alle scelte difficili e all’atmosfera opprimente di una colonia perduta su un mondo ostile. Ogni tiro di dado conta. La fortuna è una risorsa che si esaurisce, il panico cresce con ogni ferita e ogni decisione può segnare il confine tra la sopravvivenza e l’orrore. Tra strutture blindate dall’interno, odori di formaldeide e un nemico che non colpisce con armi ma con l’istinto di riprodursi dentro di te, la tensione non cala mai.

Il Master guida, ma sono le scelte dei giocatori a scrivere la storia. Se cerchi un’esperienza pronta, cruda e immediata, dove il regolamento serve solo a sostenere il racconto e non a ostacolarlo, Chronicles of the Colony è fatto per te. Scaricalo, stampa il foglio, piegalo e scendi nell’oscurità. La colonia ti aspetta, e ora puoi portarla sempre con te.

CHRONICLES OF THE COLONY
Is not a game of intricate rules, but a narrative survival experience that claims the table in minutes. With a single six-sided die, a sheet of paper, and a pencil, you will forge your soldier in just two minutes and begin playing within five. All of this is contained within an elegant zine format:

a single European A4 sheet printed front-only which, by following the simple folding instructions included, transforms into a portable eight-page mini-booklet in A7 size.
A complete roleplaying game that fits in your wallet, ready to be played anywhere, without the need for bulky manuals or endless character sheets.
The mechanics are designed to fade into the background, leaving only tension, difficult choices, and the suffocating atmosphere of a lost settlement on a hostile world. Every roll matters. Luck is a finite resource, panic builds with every wound, and each decision can draw the line between survival and horror. Between doors welded shut from the inside, the sharp stench of formaldehyde, and an enemy that strikes not with weapons but with the instinct to breed within you, the tension never breaks.
The Master guides the narrative, but the players’ choices write the story. If you seek an experience that is immediate, unflinching, and brutally straightforward, where the rules exist only to serve the tale and never hinder it, Chronicles of the Colony is ready for your table. Download it, print the sheet, fold it, and step into the dark. The colony is waiting, and now you can carry it with you, always.

Hösten har kommit till landet Feldmark, och så har rollpersonerna. Med sig har de en magisk nyckel som ska leda till den legendariska kung Efrels grav.

Feldmark är ett land i krig. I tjugo år har tronarvingar och adel kämpat om makten. Kriget har sargat landet. Städer och byar har plundrats. Böndernas åkrar har plundrats och det har lett till missväxt och hungersnöd. Folk har flytt från de områden där kriget rasar, och från soldater och rövare som försöker ta deras saker. Gränsen mellan en soldat och en rövare har blivit flytande. Inget tyder på att kriget kommer att ta slut snart.

Rollpersonerna reser genom landet på jakt efter gravplatsen. Kanske kommer de att finna mer än skatter där. Kan graven innehålla det som äntligen får kriget att upphöra?

JÄRNHÖST är ett äventyr till DRAKAR och DEMONER från FRIA LIGAN.

"Reclaiming Château d'Argent"

A High-Level Fantasy Adventure
Intended for 4 - 6 PCs of Levels 9 – 12

Greetings adventurers and Game Masters! 

I am very happy to release the tenth book in my Original Delve series of adventures “Reclaiming Château d'Argent”, a full length, high-level adventure, intended for a group of experience players with player characted ranging from levels 9 to 12. In this module, the protagonist is a player character who, having reached “name level” in their class, has embarked on the odyssey of commanding their very own keep on the outskirts of civilization. As luck would have it, they have received an inheritance from a distant relation; this includes title to a small fiefdom and an ancient family fortress. However, a magistrate informs them that before they can muster an army and begin taming the countryside, they must first rebuild the castle. Therein lies the adventure in this scenario, for the player (and their companions) must first defeat a host of foes, including those placed by the nefarious builder, in cahoots with the magistrate, who is attempting to steal the lands and resources for himself!

SYNOPSIS: Having just reached “name level” you are about to embarked on the odyssey of commanding your very own keep on the outskirts of civilization when, as luck would have it, you receive a letter from a local magistrate informing you a distant relation has left you a sizeable inheritance, which includes title to a small fiefdom and an ancient family fortress! However, before claiming these lands you must first reclaim Château d'Argent from the forces of Chaos
