Te Deum Pour Un Massacre
A French-language historical RPG set in 16th century Europe amidst the Wars of Religion. The core set is published as a series of four small paperback books in a cardboard sleeve: a setting book on everyday life (70 pages)¸ a historical background book (194 pages)¸ the main rulebook (146 pages)¸ and a book of scenarios (44 pages). It uses a step-die system where each of six attribute has six levels¸ with named levels corresponding to D4¸ D6¸ D8¸ D10¸ D12 and D20. Character creation uses a life path system¸ starting with picking a birth rank and then templates for your life as a baby¸ as a child¸ as a youth and as a teenager. Each stage includes background questions ranging from what your favourite hiding place was as a child to who your first lover was. After adolescence¸ you pick one of 46 professions. The rules also include detailed combat rules with hit location and precise weapon stats. - A description from https://darkshire.net/jhkim/rpg/encyclopedia/ with kind permission of John H. Kim
