Battleaxes & Beasties

ADD TO WISHLIST >

Built around Old School roleplaying Games, Battleaxes & Beasties is a complete game in one book.  It includes all the information you need to create your Adventurers and run a game, including a starting setting, monsters, magic items, and a first level dungeon crawl style adventure.

If you are looking for something old with a touch of something new, have a look.  Previews are available for download here, as well as on our facebook page:

A more comprehensive 27 page preview is available here on my page for free to give you a better idea of what is in the book if you'd like to see that prior to purchasing.

Dwarven guardian and paladin skill bonus at level 4 seems like a typo. should it be +2 at level four instead of +3 (or maybe +4 at level nine bonus?)

Yes, I've been tweaking the proof, I had some art issues with the first two copies I got back (I missed them in the first one :D) and have what I hope is the final proof coming. It will be offered in softcover and hardcover and those who have already purchased the PDF will receive a discount when purchasing the POD copy. I'm hoping for POD release within the next two to three weeks, depending on how long it takes to get the proof back.

Outstanding. I particularly like the discount and wish more Publishers would offer the same, as I think it would make people less hesitant to give PDF's a shot before a POD for a particular product is an option. I'm ordering the PDF now.

I also hope you will release more beasties for this product......I like your take on monsters and would like to see more done in this format. (Especially maybe some demons and devils....though I suppose the ones from Skyscrapers and Sorcery would work)

Glad you like it. I'm currently working on the first adventure, Witches of Hagswallow. I will try to add at least one new Beastie to every adventure, plus I'll pull together additional ones, including demons and the like.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
