This is the Special Edition cover for the book by James V. West. You can find the Standard Edition cover by James Hanson here.
Barbarians of the Ruined Earth is a weird post-apocalyptic fantasy setting inspired by Thundarr the Barbarian. Throw in a healthy heap of Mad Max: Fury Road and a little Pirates of Dark Water and you've got yourself a Saturday Morning Cartoon Stew fueled by heavy metal!
The players take on the role of heroes (or maybe some feisty brigands or profiteers)¸ wandering the Ruined Earth defeating evil Sorcerers¸ beating the crap out of mutated frog-men¸ bashing some raider skulls¸ or wandering through the stinking ruins of an Ancient Earth space shuttle hanger looking for bits of Stupendous Science!
Blurb From the Back Cover:
What can I say about Barbarians of the Ruined Earth that the tasty 89 full color illustrations packed into this goddamned book doesn't already scream at you? I mean aside from the fact it uses The Black Hack¸ has 4 classes and 4 races (each with cool abilities¸ starting gear¸ and tables to generate unique trinkets and life events)¸ 7 sample traps¸ new magic system with 30 spells¸ new and fun equipment for the setting¸ including 12 weaponized animals¸ hireling and vehicle rules¸ 14 pieces of Stupendous Science¸ 60 different mutations¸ 18 pieces of cyberware¸ 11 charts and tables for GM's to use on the fly¸ 46 adversaries to pit your players against¸ a point crawl in the ruins of the Los Angeles area with 13 locations¸ all channeling the spirt of Thundarr the Barbarian¸ Mad Max: Fury Road¸ and Pirates of Dark Water and it's wrapped up in a 162 page sexy package... what else is there?! Not much¸ I'm afraid...
