Covers that Capture the Spirit of the Game

These are in no particular order. The spirit of the game to me is wonder, silliness, getting out of tough scrapes, and having a story to tell that makes others wish that they were there.

Dungeonslayers can be downloaded here.

The Expert Rules can be purchased here.

Dungeon World can be purchased here

Slumbering Ursine Dunes can be purchased here

The Lost Caverns of Tsojcanth can be purchased here

Risus can be downloaded in multiple formats here

There are so many more things I could post like the cover of the 1st Edition Manual of the Planes, the cover of any Tekumel game,the cover of Warrior, Rogue, & Mage, Hackmaster, Renegade Legion, TSR’s Marvel Super Heroes, Champions, Shadowrun (recent edition), Usagi Yojimbo, covers of all the Sine Nomine games, and Bushido.

Last and not least, the real spirit of the game is conveyed by ‘zine covers are all kinds. I mean Crawl, Gongfarmer’s Almanac, Hack, Crawling Under a Broken Moon, Wizards Mutants Laser Pistols, and Black Pudding.

Working on the Red spells for my Red Concordant project. The magic section is taking me a very long time, mostly because of spell selection.

In the end, I think it will be worth it because of the ability to mix and match categories of spells to make interesting NPCs.

When I get finished, I will whittle down the different types of magic wielding classes to three or four and publish the rest as add-ons. Right now, I have a Wizard (the Conjurer from the standard rules), Summoner, Runecaster, the Elementalist (this is the one that uses all the different colors of spells), the Specialist (primarily uses one color with bonuses), and the Mage (all spells are 1st level, but successful INT test produces greater results.)

This doesn't include the gematria stuff, though I did get that system to work. (We'll see how it tests.) I also have a Psion, but I can't decide on spell points or just a different spell list.
