Swords and Sorcerers: Vikings, Steppes Nomads, Gaels and Picts
"This book covers the Vikings, Mongols, Gaels, Picts and Celts. Each such nationality is fully discussed in terms of social organization, military organization, magick user types, character development, and political/economic systems. In addition to discussing this new set of nationalities, SWORDS & SORCERERS offers Mass Combat Modifications to properly allow for the battle tactics and effectiveness of these new army groups. A new battle system for paper and pencil is also presented for those who wish to speed up mass combat resolution or who wish to avoid the use of large numbers of miniatures (why anyone would wish to pass up the full splendor and pageantry of medieval miniatures is inexplicable.) Finally, a set of tables for instant calculation of feudal holdings and fortress construction is also included in this rule book."

Destrier
From the Editorial Introduction:
"Chivalry & Sorcery utilizes a fairly complex system of individual combat in the interests of realism and player input. Such a system is far harder to master than the type systems employed in earlier, first generation, role playing games. It requires work, pracLice and patience to master the C & S system and some reference to the charts while conducting an individual level combat or melee with small numbers of characters.
Some players have objected to this degree of complexity, while others have joyfully taken the plunge and revelled in the realism. Yet, even those who are willing to go to the work needed to achieve this degree of real ism in a combat system have hoped for some form of streamlining. One answer to this problem came from a C&S campaign in North Carolina, across the continent from the original campaign. After a series of letters and rules modifications, this new system has been adopted in the original campaign as well. It offers n system to streamline out many of the references to tables, paperwork, and complexity of the combat system without changing the basic system or reducing the realism of C&S combat.
Destrier offers a card system to demonstrate the tactical decisions made in C & S combat and end the need for paperwork. The cards have the additional advantage of making the entire, system easier for novice players which will speed up the events within any ongoing campaign. The basic combat system is unchanged, only the mechanics are somewhat simplified and easier for the novice to understand quickly. Player options remain the same and combat rounds are run more smoothly..."

The Songsmith
"THE SONGSMITH is an adventure pack for use with the C&S game system. It is intended for a group of four to eight players who control characters of various types and a Gamemaster. This package also includes enough background to create an ongoing campaign based in the world of the North Kingdom, in which THE SONGSMITH takes place, as does the previous C&S adventure, THE DRAGON LORD. This adventure can be used as an isolated adventure or within an already existing campaign.
The setting is the more recently settled lands, north of the North Kingdom itself. Beginning in Barrisglen, where THE DRAGON LORD left off, the adventure takes the characters by sea to Dwarvendale in search of the long-lost city of the Dwarves, Khalezheer. Powerful help is available in this quest which requires knowledge of the hidden secrets of Khalezheer from the time-shrouded depths of the past.
Can the party reach Dwarvendale? Is the wizard Thuvalae all that he seems, and what dangers will be faced in the Lost City? It is a truly perilous quest, but the overall rewards make it worth all risks!"
