Run Out the Guns Adventure Kit (Boxed)
 |
Die Spieler übernehmen die Rolle von Piraten in der Karibik im 17. Jahrhundert.
A pirate swashbuckling-action RPG set in the historical 17th century: specifically the Carribean circa 1660. The game includes a wealth of historical detail and background on the era. The system is based on (and compatible with) the Rolemaster system¸ but simplified to be suitable for beginners. There are pre-generated characters provided but no character creation system in the basic game. The ship-to-ship combat rules are also sketchy. - A description from https://darkshire.net/jhkim/rpg/encyclopedia/ with kind permission of John H. Kim"
