Same rules as RQ3 but with confusing addition of artwork from Games Workshop products. The bad art detracts significantly from other rq products.

[Arthur B · Rating 3 out of 5]

RuneQuest's 3rd edition was a little bit of a misstep due both to mismanagement by Avalon Hill and the actual system design turning the crunch dial up too high. Games Workshop's release of 3rd Edition, however, undertook a welcome division of the truly essential rules into the core rulebook and the more burdensome material into Advanced RuneQuest, allowing groups to stick to a significantly more simple core and add in content from Advanced as they saw fit.
