Castles & Crusades
A rules-light fantasy role-playing game about adventurers exploring dangerous wilderness, confronting monsters, seeking treasure, and using martial or magical abilities. Players create characters from seven races and thirteen classes, then take part in adventures guided by a Castle Keeper. The attribute-based Siege Engine covers character creation, exploration, spells, equipment, and fast-paced combat. The rules are designed for multiple players and can be learned and used to create characters in a short time.
