The Fantasy Sagas Paradigm is now available!

Paradigm is over 150 pages of character archetype goodness. The book features 50 fully developed characters ready for play. Among the 50 characters are 10 specifically developed for Game Masters as NPC’s to help flesh out their campaigns. This book is a huge resource for both players and Game Masters. This is a priceless resource for Game Masters and players alike.

We just finished another round of updates to both the Fantasy Sagas Player’s Guidebook and the Game Master Lodestar.

There was a small list of minor textual changes. However, the biggest changes involved the PDF formats. We updated and enhanced the book marking and added cross-references throughout the books. Basically this means that wherever you see a page reference you can click the text to instantly be jumped to that page.

These changes were made simply to update the content to make it more user friendly. So, if you haven’t updated in the past week or so do so now! If you purchased the printable PDF’s you will have to update through your lulu.com file management pages. You can get the updated free versions by clicking here.

Thanks to everyone who sent in suggestions on ways to improve the books. We take all suggestions very seriously (as can be seen in the new updates). If you have any suggestions please send us a line either on our forums or via email.

Version 1.3 of the Fantasy Sagas Player’s Guidebook is now available.  

Ruel Knudson speaks out about the changes, and errata from the previous version.

“We discovered, rather late, that the first release was actually a corrupted version of the book. During the final compiling and uploads the files got overwritten by older files which weren’t accurate. We began receiving emails about this late last month and members of the Ironwood Community were very helpful in pointing out the sections that had been corrupted.”

Ruel Knudson and the Ironwood Development team weren’t simply satisfied with making those corrections, however. Instead, the entire book went through another overhaul.

We sat down to answer a few questions from Zachary at rpgblog.org. We discussed the development of E-RPG and the future of Sagas.
