Hero Games is proud to announce a new core Fantasy Hero roleplaying game book! Like our previously published core book Champions Complete, Fantasy Hero Complete will be a 240 page softcover with color cover, black and white interior, table of contents and index. It will be a stand-alone product containing all of the rules necessary to play Fantasy Hero with no other book required, but compatible with all Hero System 6th edition books. Fantasy Hero Complete will include spells, monsters, magic items, and a sample adventure in addition to all of the Skills, Powers, and Complications useful for the fantasy genre. Experienced players will find it to be a handy, easy-to-use addition to their Fantasy Hero library, while new players will be able to sit down with a copy, create characters, and start having fun!

 

Fantasy Hero Complete is being written by veteran Hero System author Michael Surbrook, with an original cover by Sam Flegal, interior layout by Ruben Smith-Zempel, and cartography by Keith Curtis. With thirty years of play behind it, our goal is to include everything Fantasy Hero gamers need (except pencil, paper, and a handful of six-sided dice), and nothing they don’t. New players will love the unmatched freedom of the Hero System, which allows them to create and play exactly the hero they imagine. Longtime fans will appreciate a tight, concise new approach, presenting the full game system at a fraction of its former length.
