ARS MAGICA OPEN LICENSE ANNOUNCEMENTS

I am happy to announce my newest release: A Game of Grogs and on RPGTrader.

This a compilation of rules and mechanics to play medieval sports within the Ars magica framework Unlike my previous publications, it isn't an adventure but a mix of rules, examples and story seeds. So whether you are still cruising on world cup fever or not, the grogs and companions have an opportunity to take to the field.

A Game of Grogs gives you everything you need to bring the sports of the medieval period to an Ars Magica campaign, with rules and mechanics for a variety of real medieval sports and physical contests. Historical sports detailed in this sourcebook include archery, medieval ball games such as Shrovetide football, quintain, racing (both mounted and on foot), wrestling, and many more.

You’ll also find plenty of story seeds to involve the entire covenant—grogs and companions will have many opportunities to shine through physical prowess, while rules for betting and cheating give everyone else a way to participate.

This material slots into any high-research saga, and is illustrated with historical sports images.

This supplement is released under the Ars Magica Open License. It was created without the use of generative AI; the text, art, and illustrations were made by real people.
