Through Wednesday, November 25 we present the all-new Tales of the Old West Bundle featuring Tales of the Old West, the historical RPG from Effekt Publishing of authentic, hard-hitting adventures in the American West of 1873. Building on the rules-light Year Zero Engine (seen in Alien, Coriolis, Tales From the Loop RPG, and many more), Tales of the Old West lets you create any kind of person who lived in the Old West, free of old and worn stereotypes, and build their reputation, homestead, business, family, and a thriving community. Your character has a Big Dream, whether grand (“become the greatest horse rancher in New Mexico”) or simple (“earn enough to never have to steal again”). The rules encourage your character to chase that Big Dream and take risks to achieve it.
Blessed by opportunity, cursed by hardship, and riven with conflict, life on the frontier is challenging. The Tales of the Old West rules make it easy to get hurt, and in fact, everything can go south fast. If you’re gonna draw your gun, you better be ready for the consequences. But when trouble knocks, your Faith (in religion, your friends, the land, the spirits of your ancestors, or simply in yourself) drives your ability to push your rolls and keep going. Your community helps too, if you’ve used the town management rules to treat it well and help it prosper. Tales of the Old West gives you the means to build a shining place on a hill, and the business outfit you want to run there.
Pay just US$9.95 to get all five titles in our Old West Collection (retail value $44) as DRM-free .PDF ebooks, including the complete 300-page Tales of the Old West Core Rules and the GM Screen (plus the free Quickdraw rules), along with three short Campfire Tales scenarios: Biting the Dust in Albuquerque, The Gift Horse, and The Las Vegas Legacy.
This Tales of the Old West offer rides into the sunset Wednesday, November 25.
