Black Book of Sorcery
by Matt O. [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 05/29/2021 19:12:02

A lotus fuelled fever dream of dark sword and sorcery spells and artefacts. Everything you need to give your player characters a darker, costlier edge if they dare dabble in the arcane or simply to flesh out the mechanics and fluff behind the evil sorcerer BBEG. Robert E Howard meets Kentaro Miura via Dan Abnett. Ostensibly for USR but easily adaptable to any system. A particular shout out for the random ritual generator in the back, its everything needed to come up with fell magic on the fly.

USR Sword & Sorcery
by Collin S. [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 04/12/2020 00:43:26

This is a rules light game, there are only three stats that you assign dice to similar to savage worlds stats. Your hit points are derived. There are no skills only specialisms which give you pluses to do certain things. Combat is a contested thing, with weapons giving bonuses and armor soaking some hits, but the hits initially taken is the difference between the contested roll, with the hits going to the loser. Simple. But it works. There are hit locations and a pretty nice critical hit table. Also this game has the best carousing fumble table I've seen so far in a game. There are some great random tables. Magic is broken down into artifact use, sorcery, and mesmerism. For a few bucks if nothing else this game is worth pilfering the carousing table from and maybe some of the random tables. Great little game the only issue is it might be too simplistic for some.

First actual review here on the site. Thanks for leaving your thoughtful reply. Sounds like the game plays the same way for you as it runs for me! There is a supplement, Horror Material & Magic Malignant, offering a bestiary, npcs and magic spells/rituals. If you like using the game I recommend the supplement. All the best, Jay

Horrors Material & Magic Malignant
by Collin S. [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 04/12/2020 00:34:51

This is swords and sorcery. A rogues gallery of NPCs you can plug into your game in section one is very useful, and the archtypes can be used as ideas for other games. You also get a small but adequate bestary, some artifcats, a break down on the different lotus flowers and their uses, and brief but imagination kick starting list of the horrible things sorcerers do to people. Worth the four bucks.
