Normal 0 false false false MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 The Maelstrom RPG¸ published in 1984 was a small but popular game¸ released partly on the success of the Fighting Fantasy books¸ also from Puffin. Written by Alexander Scott¸ a teenager at the time¸ the game soon gathered a loyal following. Despite being in print for only a short time¸ the game has developed something of a cult following¸ and the herbal section has inspired many net-based RPG herbals. In 2007¸ Arion Games acquired the license to re-release the original book as a pdf¸ and has followed that up with adventures and a Companion volume. Now¸ we are releasing the first in a regular series: Maelstrom Quarterly 1 This series will¸ at low cost¸ provide setting material on a different facet of Tudor life in each issue¸ with new equipment¸ livings and NPC's. This first issue covers the high excitement of the Tudor Tournament¸ with information and rules for Jousting¸ tourneys¸ the Tournament Knight living and more. Whether as a competitor or a spectator¸ your players are sure to love the excitement of a Royal tournament! Although written for the Maelstrom RPG¸ this guide is also useful for any medieval or fantasy RPG that features jousting¸ tournaments and fairs.
