Fanzine Rolero reaches its 45th edition


Fanzine Rolero reaches its 45th edition with the following contents:

(Note: This is a translation to English of the magazine press note as it is written in Spanish):

Here we go again with the severity of being out of the last moon phase, noting how we are dragging delays until we are in time again. We could be out early, but it would mean lowering quality and quantity of the offering. We will drag some lag until recovering dates because offering less is not an option. We apologize.

So without much fuss or self-importance, we speak directly to you about what we have this time on the menu.

In reviews we have, recovered and updated, the inspection by Miguel de Rojas in the extinct Nosolorol magazine of Dark Heresy and other games based in Warhammer 40.000 universe.

We do not stop paying attention to the games appearing at home and being published in one way or another, like Shan Hu, a self edited game taking advantage of being Alex Werden one of the play-testers time ago.

And Aquilifer and Capitán Alain Masseri continue talking about how was La Gran Campaña de Pendragón.

We have pleasant surprises, Urox, after publishing a two-part adventure settled in the decline of the Roman Empire, adapts groups and institutions of this era to the FATE System to have a wide vision of this as an operational theatre for preparing our own campaigns in this unknown period.

In material for extending and better articulating games Carlos Plaza continues offering material and advice for his Shadow Hunters, this time with generic stats for recurring NPC like law enforcement, health workers or sex workers, while Tirano addresses extending the setting of Historias de Darakkia, a free game we offered a few years ago and still available in FR if you missed it.

Besides recovering NSR material we continue bringing material of Baúl Bizarro of role-playing games of around the world, this moon we have history and present role-playing in Italy, investigative journalism by Magus.

PentagoN, the D12 system, continues developing. We have an article with thoughts about how to implement Lovecraftian role-playing in the system, also offering a downloadable reference sheet to help you preparing players using this system.

And J. Fernando Martín Ramirez, better known as Doctor Alban, offers two modules for two classical games with El Teorema de Thomas and Misión Arklay, for Spanish editions of Traveller and Paranoia.

As an additional effort we retake the pseudo section Másters & Masterminds devoted to help in refereeing role-playing with superheroes, offering a series of ideas referencing comic books to take as an inspiration for campaigns beyond the topical powered group with recurrent super villains.

And of course, we did not lack anything; we also have the cartoon strip by Kharma.
