Five years ago, Arion Games was born, with the release of their first set of Paper Miniatures. Since then they have produced a further 110 Paper Miniature sets, have re-released the classic Maelstrom RPG along with 5 support products, and have written and published the Rolemaster:Rome book.
Thanks to the more than 5,000 customers they have had in that time, they have grown out of all recognition, and have some very exciting products to come.
Story Bones™ is the introductory version of the upcoming Classic Story Engine™ Plus, stripped to its most fundamental parts. Story Engine was born in 1996 as the rules system for Maelstrom Storytelling. It was subsequently redesigned as a universal rules system in 1999 and revised in 2001. One of the initial games to truly handle roleplaying as a storygame, Story Engine was the first to focus on scenes rather than turns–an idea that has become more and more popular over the years. Story Engine also further evolved the mechanics of adjective-based characters, an idea that had appeared in earlier games, as well as various diceless mechanics.
Two new books from Mongoose are hitting shop shelves this week, one for Traveller, the other for the Lone Wolf Multiplayer Gamebook.
