Skaldic Sagas: Heroic Journeys in the Viking Age

ADD TO WISHLIST >

From the Fury of the Northmen, Deliver us

Skaldic Sagas: Heroic Journeys in the Viking Age is a roleplaying game rooted in the mythopoetic and cultural traditions of what is now called the Viking Age. Blending the history and the heroism found in the verses of Poetic Edda, Prose Edda, and Beowulf,  it tells stories rooted in real-world mythology and archaeology to serve as a vehicle for telling your own stories where kin and community are as important as battle and bloodshed.



Though a complete stand-alone game, Skaldic Sagas is compatible with The Hero's Journey Fantasy Roleplaying, Second Edition.

Still interested in this as a POD but I get that it's not happening. How about a printer friendly version? Is there a chance that an art-less, B&W, border free version is hiding in the weeds?

We'll look into the possibility of a printer-friendly version, though GKG does not produce art-free versions of games.

Is this ever going to see POD? I know it's been mentioned, but so long ago that it seems as though it's probably not happening. Kinda sucks to have a cool looking game without a print version available.

Skaldic Sagas was never planned to move to a physical copy.

Still waiting for the POD for this. Over a year now since the publisher said they were looking into it and would take "... a few weeks".

Hi Richard!

James has incorporated edits and errata based on feedback, and as such, when that is done, we'll be doing a POD, but there is no immediate timetable. We're intending to re-lay out to DTRPG's updated specs.

Hey folks - we're exploring POD! It's on our list, but it'll take us a few weeks to get around to it.

Hello! A friend and I would really love to get this great game in print version. Is a PoD option still under under consideration? If yes, count us in!

Hello! I wanted to ask if that book contains a world setting or world map. As I think from the description it seems to me that the rules are written as if your characters live in Norse Mythology. Thank you!

There is no specific setting or map, though it is implied to be in a kind of historic period of myth within pre-Christian Scandinavian culture, so real world maps will serve quite well.

The preview only has 3 blank pages and 3 with publishers details not a lot about the game , any chance of seeing some actual content ? that and POD could swing my decision.

Reading through it now. Great game. I noticed the character sheets list an attribute called "Value." I can't seem to locate a Value attribute in the book, so I assume this is a typo? If not, could you give me a page number? It is entirely possible it's there and I'm not seeing it.

It appears to be an error in formatting we missed. Reduction Value on the column over is listed as Reduction (with no "Value" after it). We'll get it cleaned up soon. For now, just ignore it. There is no "Value" attribute.

I love that this is compatible with The Hero's Journey second edition! Is there going to be a POD of this? I'd like to have a hardback copy on my shelf next to The Hero's Journey.

I (Alan) did the layout, so while we'd love to do a POD, it's not immediately forthcoming.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
