This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Vikings & Valkyries

Well, the title says it all, doesn't it?  Mazes & Minotaurs goes Norse with this 100% new and 100% free supplement detailing the alternate game setting of Midgard – a whole new world of adventure to explore, conquer and plunder!  

This 50-page, fully illustrated and bookmarked PDF book includes:

- Rules for creating Norse adventurers, including the new Viking class and rules for playing Elves, Dwarves and (yes!) Half-Giants – as well as simple conversions of existing M&M classes into Valkyries, Berserkers, Princes and other archetypes of Norse legends

- New combat options – including rules for going berserk, breaking shields and maiming opponents!  

- Rules for drinking contests and other manly Viking games!

- Rules for Ice Elementalism!

- An overview of the new world of Midgard (including an original map) and its otherworldly surrounding realms, from Asgard to Jotunheim!

- Many new creatures – including several types of Giants and Trolls!

- A collection of typical Norse mythic items - including Mjolnir!

- The usual M&M mix of faux retro pastiche, kitsch homage and old school goodness!
 
So by Odin, what are you waiting for?  Put on your horned helmet, swing your battle axe at those pesky historians who insist on telling you that horned helmets never existed and go get your free PDF of Vikings & Valkyries from the regular Revised Mazes & Minotaurs website or directly from this webpage.

Very cool.  Reasonable length without excess rambling.
 
Now if you'd only reprint the often maligned Hemp & Hippies, the M&M variant that satirizes the 60s.  Some of the Crumb art was amazing.  At the time, it was just too much for either extreme.  That old hippy actor and that one Reagan aide both condemned it for entirely different reasons.
