Print Update, 5E Edition + Community News!


It's been all quiet on the western front lately, but I have some pretty massive news!

Player feedback has been super positive and people are loving MNM so far. But this is only the beginning! I've got some pretty major updates planned over the next few months, so here's what you can expect coming down the pipe real soon:

THE PRINT UPDATE: MNM is a labor of love from a first-time RPG Creator. As such, while the PDF is perfectly playable, its test prints leave much to be desired. So I'm porting over all the content to a new file format with slightly more generous margins, making it print-ready! While my first time making this game left me with quite a few skills to learn, I'm confident I can make a fully-fledged, commercial-grade RPG with a premium print layout. This update will also serve as a major cull to any and all typos, and should serve as the game's final update before it officially launches on DrivethruRPG.

"Wait - Commercial? But isn't the game Free?"

Yes, the Basic PDF with all the currently available content will be free to play. However, the Deluxe Edition which features Four new races (Faunblood, Centaur, Fir Bolg and Half-Orc) and two new classes (Illusionist and Woodwose) along with 40+ random tables and an overhauled GM's section will be available as a premium option for anyone who wants more content. 

And speaking of more content...

ADVANCED MYTHS & MASTERS: Advanced Myths & Masters is an upgraded version of the game that's currently intended to run a variant of Kobold Press' Black Flag engine, and will feature new subclasses, streamlined stat blocks, Exotic player options (If you wanted to play a Giant Eagle for example...) and other quality of life features making it the most accessible version of 5th Edition on the market. In addition, AMNM will feature a rich and intuitive guide for porting over some of the more high-powered 5e supplements to the Olde World's more grounded gameplay.

While I have supplements for MNM already in production, my intent is to release most of my products fully OSR + 5e compatible out of the box, making them accessible for the largest range of gamers possible.

Following AMNM's release, the next major release will be the game's official settings, Whitevale, Invictus Rex and Venturepunk. Each one is a reimagining of tabletop RPG tropes with the depth of lore and character one would expect from the great fantasy works. These will be a very large work in progress, and will be Walsingham Games' premier flagship products. They will also feature two tiers of content: a free, "Gazeteer" style game pamphlet inspired by old-school settings like Judges' Guild's Wilderlands of High Fantasy, and a deluxe PDF + Hardback featuring in-depth world lore, factions, NPCs and items for OSR + 5E.

I'll be setting up a Discord very soon for players to LFG and discuss all things MNM. In the mean time please spread the word on social media and keep an eye out as things develop.

Thanks again for your support. Godspeed and may your rolls be ever 20s.
