I am an unabashed fan of pulp and the pulp game Spirit of the Century. I cannot sing the praises of the folks over at Evil Hat Productions enough. They’ve always been kind, reasonable, and prompt in their responses. I get the feeling that these are gamers like us, and that they’re producing a damn fine product out of love, not greed.
So, when they announced a free supplement for Spirit of the Century, I was excited. Spirit of the Season could have been a cheesy one shot game. But they put in so much love and effort, it surpassed that. Whether your players are up against the miserly Doctor Scrooge and his Crachets, Jacques Frost, the insane and evil arctic explorer (and his murder monsters), or the emotionless Baroness Blackheart, they are sure to have fun. Even among free products, this is a darn fine thing.
Plus it has new rules from Companions! And new stunts! They’re not tied to the holidays, either. Just plain old fashioned rules expansions for free.
Plus, if you order through December, you can get $5 off the book! That’s right, the book is cheaper! You should buy a copy to support this great company. I actually went ahead and ordered a second copy of the book, one to use during play and loan out, and one as a shelf copy.
Anyway, just some news from the land of pulp. If you don’t know what I’m yammering on about, well check out the website. The game is really, really cool.
