This updated version of [B]S&W[/B] contains some tweaks to the rules to either bring them more in line with the original 1978 engine or to create a more balanced experience. This version of the rules moves away from [B]Wizards of the Coast’s[/B] OGL over to the Creative Commons release of the rules. They’re also working on a compatibility license to allow "compatible with [B][I]Swords & Wizardry[/I][/B]" products. It’s everything you’ll need to game like they did nearly 50 years ago. If one of the earlier OSRs interests you, check out the campaign page for a link to a sample of the rulebook.

Three adventures featuring a gnarly looking dragon, a vampire that looks like the deadliest kind of [B]Hellboy[/B] villain, and a fiend that must be defeated to save the town. While the adventure is for levels 3 to 13, the book offers a lot of crunch including 75 monsters, spells, 40 exploration challenges, and so much more. While the main adventure is levels 3 and on, there’s also a starter adventure, 100 pages for levels 1 to 3 that serves as a prologue to this story. While a number of artists contribute to this project, Claudio Pozas’ cover and character portraits are iconic. Just as [B][I]Level Up![/I][/B] sets a high bar for other [B]5e[/B] variant engines, this book sets a new artistic level, bringing beautiful, yet haunting artwork to the game.
