In Darkest Warrens Ultimate Edition

IN DARKEST WARRENS - ULTIMATE EDITION is a minimalist fantasy roleplaying game whose basic rules cover two pages, including a bestiary and introductory adventure. All you need is some six-sided dice, paper, pencils and, of course, a bunch of buddies to play with.

• All the rules you need, including character advancement for campaign play

Print the rules right out and use them for reference at the table. Perfect for a pick-up and play game.

What's In Darkest Warrens all about?

• Rulings, not rules: IDW doesn't give you every rule you need (it's only 4 pages, after all) so players and referees are expected to be interpretive and creative when it comes to rules that aren't covered. 
• Player creativity over character stats: There are no lists of skills and feats in the game. Players will rely on their ingenuity and lateral thinking to overcome challenges. Referees will reward cleverness and creativity.
• Easily compatable with old school material: IDW rules are hyperlite, making it easy to run your favourite adventures with minimal fuss. 
• Simple to run: You can read over the rules and hit the table in a short space of time. The rules are easy to remember, too.

Updates from the original edition

If you're a fan of the original game, here are some of the changes made to the basic rules:

• Creatures in the bestiary no longer have to use an action to use their abilities - most have innate special rules now
• Mages and Barbarians can now only wear hide armour, but Barbarians have increased in wounds
• Advanced combat has been cleaned up to get rid of a couple of troublesome rules
• Gain 2 wounds when levelling rather than 1. Also some xp reward levels have changed
• Death rules have changed to increase game tension
