BLACK SWORD HACK is a dark fantasy roleplaying game inspired by books such as Michael Moorcock's Stormbringer or Karl Edward Wagner's Kane series. It is a stand-alone game that uses the Black Hack 2nd edition as a foundation and adds a few tweaks.
There are no classes, characters are built according to their origins (Barbarian, Civilized or Decadent).
Tools are included to help you build your own dark fantasy world
You'll find rules for dangerous spells, demon pacts, spirit alliances, twisted science, rune weapons as well as ship navigation and combat.
To help you start right away, the game comes with an introductory adventure: Scalpel Surprise.
As with our other games, you should be able to read the whole game and run your first adventure on the same day you got it!
