Impressed with Warlords of Alexandria

[camazotz]

I just downloaded Warlords of Alexandria and am perusing it now...plan to absorb this thing in full this weekend.

Anyway, I just wanted to make the comment that I am thoroughly impressed with this PDF; it looks remarkably well thought-out and researched. Kudos! Any plans to offer it at a POD location like lulu.com, or would that require some lisencing considerations? Just curious.....hope you see this, Paul, and can let me know. I would definitely grab one if offered in print form.

Yeah, Paul does excellent work. You should check out his other stuff. Totem and Zenobia come to mind.

And just what, pray tell, is Warlords of Alexandria?

Sounds good just overhearing this conversation.

Please inform the masses (=such as me).

Warlords of Alexander is a truly fascinating setting you may find in this fo-
rum's download section.

It's a really nice free rpg pdf which is based on the Greek City-States during the time of Alexander the Great. It incorporates magic and religion, but I don't remember off hand whether mythical beings are present. It's fully self contained and can be run without any references, but it helps if you have another BRP or RQ book handy.

If I were to run a Greek game, this would be my primary document.

Totem is a game where you play tribal warriors during the ice age and Zenobia is about the eastern provinces of the Roman Empire. Both are really fun and easily translated into the BRP system.

I checked it out today and liked what I saw. Alas, I didn't find a character sheet.

I could have sworn that WoA came with a character sheet, but I don't see it in the PDF I got from his website awhile back.

Funny thing is, I recall looking at a character sheet that had the skills divided up under the various gods, but that must have been for another game.

Download the pdf again - the character sheet is now found on the last page.

I KNEW I wasn't crazy, well no more than usual anyway. I must have misplaced the other one I had. Thanks.
