The first batch of AFG copies arrived today, sporting a colourful but temporary cover and a full set of new stuff like character creation, two combat systems, various advancement systems, achievements, spells, Holdings and MONSTROTRON, my new and revised monster generator. It’s completely cleric- and experience points-free, but still compatible with most of your OSR swag. AFG will be available in PDF, Kindle and A5 Deadtree version later on this spring. Preliminary talks with artists are promising toward showing pretty pictures both inside and on the covers.
In the works, to be released any time soon (in the next weeks), the first AFG hexcrawl mini-campaign setting: Castles on the Hills, Dungeons Beneath will feature castles, dungeons and an inordinate amount of pillage and is meant to be an introduction to AFG and adventure gaming. I’ll try to be bold and experiment with the format: it’s going to be split in a free downloadable players’ introduction to both AFG and the campaign and a Referee section coming bundled in PDF and deadtree-in-your-mailbox for a handful of dollars.
Wow. I’d like to have one of these. With this cover. It looks gorgeous.
Aww, thanks!
Surely I can arrange for that!
I can’t guarantee the content is perfect (it’s not) as they’re meant to be early contributor and playtester copies (just to make sure that everybody is fine with them), but I guess that as early adopter you get free PDF updates and a discounted hardcopy of the final version.
I’ll try to send you an email but write me to tsojcanth at the google free mail.com if you don’t get anything in the next few hours.
Congratulations on your book. I hope it’s a big success and I look forward to buying a copy.
Thanks Wil! Hopefully I’ll resolve a snag soon and will be able to distribute the game
I worked on the MONDOTRON section and the introductory adventure today and it’s looking great. Hopefully players will start hexcrawling in half an hour
