Rulebook Read-Along: "MIKE'S WORLD: The Forsaken Wilderness Beyond"
I've heard a lot of good things about "Mike's World" so it's time to finally crack it open and take a peek. "Mike's World" expands on the area surrounding the lands introduced in the classic module, "B2: The Keep on the Borderlands" and is written with the B/X ruleset of OSR D&D in mind. Let's sally forth from the Keep and survey this forsaken landscape.

Are you or your players finding the OSR fighter a bit bland, boring, or vanilla? You're not alone! This question comes up quite a bit and the answer usually is, or at the top of the list of answers, to use Mighty Deeds from Dungeon Crawl Classics. Let's take a look at what Mighty Deeds are, how we can make it a bit more generic for general OSR play, and discuss a couple of other options. Got some favorite tweaks for fighters? Let's hear them!

We take a look at "Fallen," a self-styled baroque and grim fantasy roleplaying game from Perplexing Ruins. From the publisher:
"Fallen is a 44 page tabletop role-playing game set in a supernatural world analogous to the 17th & 18th centuries. Stagecoaches pound over muddy lanes through the woods, the light of its two lanterns a gauzy haze in the descending mist. Donning a splattered and torn long coat and tricorne hat, your Rogue desperately hangs on to the rear of the bounding vehicle while taking aim at the shrieking creature that pursues your party. The mission? To get the last archivist with knowledge of damning evidence safely to the town. One silver bullet left!"
"Fallen tries to convey a sense of otherness. It is inspired by the strange confluence of the old and the modern: Alchemy, esoteric thought, mystics, folklore, the supernatural, modern warfare, science, religion. It is my hope, with these books, that your table can inhabit these spaces."
Will its innards live up to the promises of its cover? Let's find out!

What is a Rulebook Read-Along? Rulebook Read-Alongs are videos in which I, your glorious host, read, sift, and flip through a roleplaying book, completely blind and unscripted, to get a sense of what it is, what it tries to do, and whether it's worth your time and monies. Join the streams live to share your thoughts in real-time or watch the replays to get a peek into a book before you buy!
