Kriegsmesser
 |
Kriegsmesser is a tabletop RPG zine that was created for #zinequest 2021. It was inspired by history (cca. 1453-1630) and roleplaying games named after medieval weapons.
It's focus are 36 backgrounds compatible with Troika by Melsonian Arts Council¸ but it comes with a set of custom rules and can be played standalone.
Also includes some essays¸ GM tools¸ random tables¸ rules for horrible injuries¸ recommended media and a bunch of historical woodcut art.
What is it not?
It's not a historical game as such¸ it's fairly anachronistic and sparse on detail. It is not high fantasy with evil gods and orcs and wizards and pirate elves on lizard mounts.
