The person who draw most art in this game was also involved in the first RPG publishing Company in Sweden. They released games like "Drakar och Demoner", Mutant", KULT and so on back in the 80´s and earley 90´s.

Notes:
1) The dice set I mention at the end is hard to find and prices are inflated so it's hard to tell the retail price.
2) Yep, the history teacher misspelled "renaissance". It was 2 am. :)

Everything from free league is amazing. Coriolis, symbaraum, tales from the loop, this. They are honestly the most exciting RPG publishing company there is, the TSR of our modern day. The lorebuilding reminds me of the visionary folk lore inspiration of tolkien for all of these games - coherent, thematic worlds.

Glad the hiatus is over. This looks sweet, but I can’t wait for the renewed maps series to continue!

we just had our first session of forbidden lands and absolutely LOVED it. cant wait to keep playing

[HuskerHawg]

Have played D&D for 35+ years. Our DM convinced us to try FL. Absolutely love it. Love the combat lethality, the social interaction, crafting and most of all building dice pools a la Shadowrun

Not what I expected to see when the video started, but I enjoyed it a lot. It's a nice throwback to the days of our youth.
I loved the black&white illustrations. I usually prefer color illustrations, but these are so well done, that I am perfectly fine with them.
It is a great review that gives a good idea about what the books are offering. I think the Gamemaster's Guide would be useful to any DM who wants to run a campaign to any fantasy setting.

I've watched literally a dozen reviews of this system - yours is definitely the best I've seen thus far! Very comprehensive, yet clear. You have good insights as well.

[GunhedSM]

Good review. Waiting for the combat system analysis.

This game looks very well put together and the layout is amazing. I would want to own it for that alone. Some game play description and experience would be interesting.

[CapeCodWargameCommission]

Thank you for this overview. I'm already a huge fan of Symbaroum and I researched enough to convince me purchase the FL 2E Box Set as well. I'll let you know how our group gets on with it.

[Madkingstoe]

The intro was an exact description of my life since getting Forbidden Lands :P

[kamikazebadger]

I’ve been on the fence about this game. This review has pushed me over to the ‘buy this now’ side.

[freddaniel]

Nice video review! I share your love of Forbidden Lands and can't wait to get it to the table later this month!

[KiddCrowley]

You just sold this game for me. Can't wait to play!

[odinulveson]

Along with Dragonbane, Forbidden Lands is SOLID as solo and co-op game along with both being ease of use for game masters. Also Vaesen and Symboarium with some adjustments can be turned into solo/ co-op too! Free League FTW!

[Lawpsided]

This RPG is amazing! Quickly became my all-time favorite.

[StarshipsSteel]

Finally picked up the QS after being introduced to the system with Alien. Quite liking what I see in the quickstart. Lots of good info everyone should grab.

[SirBoxen]

I was really wanting a new system instead of the more simple 5e. Thanks for the video I will consider picking this up!
