Thanks for the info, Ghul. Sounds like it'll be a great read!

Ghul's been posting some new pieces of art from Ian Baggley for AS&SH:

Those are very cool.

From his surcoat, I think that guy with the ray gun may secretly work for Avalon Hill

This Astonishing Swordsmen and Sorcerers looks very appealing.

While I am, admittedly, not big on retroclones...I gotta say, I dig the feel of the art.

What IS with the ray gun, anyway?

Maybe that dude's a plane-hopping veteran of an expedition to the Barrier Peaks.

AS&SH is a pulp + fantasy game in that it intends to draw from both barbarians-and-sorcerers fiction and mad-scientists-and-mind-rays fiction. So the laser is not an accident there.

Thanks for the kind words, fellows!

@Benoist -- Thank you kindly for posting the pictures.
@Dan Davenport -- Yes, melan's answer is spot on.

Cheers,

Huh. Interesting. And I'm pleased that armor provides damage reduction.

Just let me know if you need a review.

Pretty critical for me as well.

That's some pretty snazzy looking artwork - I'm looking forward to seeing more!

I run at least one or two public events for this system per year, LV, and as it appears we may be within an hour of each other (I'm in Southern NH), perhaps we can toss some dice together at a con or store event in the near future.

A good plan.
I lived in Portsmouth, Dover, Durham, Nashua, Milford, Wilton, and Hudson, at different times.

I tell, you, I actually have not played in anyone elses game since ...a while. I have 2 homebrew systems I work with (Guildschool for Celtricia, and Accis), and I love talking system. I think it would be fun to get together and talk Hyperboria.
