Elizabethan fantasy using Swords and Wizardry - 'od's bodkins, this looks friggin' awesome!
I'm a devotee of historical roleplaying games and decidedly not a fantasy fan, but this looks like a very good middle ground, plus I played OD&D a couple of weeks ago and I was reminded how much I enjoy that system.
I've been looking for a game to teach my kids when they get a little older, and I think this may be the one. I've got an idea for a game in which an English Sea Dog sets off in search of Prince Madoc's descendents in the New World - an Arthurian kingdom of Welsh knights on the Mississippi, Viking longboats on the Great Lakes, aboriginal American confederations, faeries and wendigos, and the accursed Spanish riding across the Great Plains . . .
