RPG fans and tabletop gamers, rejoice! There is more content coming from Free League Publishing and the acclaimed Symbaroum game very soon.
The Game Master's Guide and Adventure Pack 4 books will be available for players on June 2nd and later in the year, respectively. The GM guide will complete the core books of the Symbaroum fantasy universe and the latest adventure book will continue to evolve the narrative for players.
You can pre-purchase the GM guide from the Free League webshop if you can’t wait until next week, but you can also bundle it together with the fourth adventure pack.
Here’s what you can expect from the Game Master's Guide, which is designed to help GMs have everything ready for gaming sessions:
The Adventure section, with chapters on the design of game worlds, chronicles, adventure landscapes, and of adventures set in the Underworld, Yonderworld, and Spirit World. It also offers tips regarding how to construct scenarios for experienced player characters, and guidelines for Troupe Play in Symbaroum.
The Challenges section, containing alternative rules for pitched battles, advanced traps, and social challenges. Adding to this are chapters on Ceremonial Magic (including sixteen ceremonies), expeditions in Davokar, exploration of ruins, the design of legendary creatures, and rules for handling player characters owning and managing an estate or smaller domain.
The Rewards Section, which offers suggestions on different ways of rewarding player characters and their players, aside from Experience and shiny coins. The chapters also present guidelines for designing what in Symbaroum are called Curiosities, Mystical Treasures, and Artifacts, after which the book is rounded off with the description of no less than twenty-seven artifacts – all of them with a unique adventure set-up.
