Red Scar Offer Up New Kings Of War 5E Quickstart PDF
August 27, 2019 by brennon
Red Scar Publishing is coming to Kickstarter later today with their Kings Of War Roleplaying Game and is offering up a new PDF Download so you can give the game a go with a 5E twist.
This take on the game goes beyond the TriCore mechanics from Red Scar's original roleplaying game and makes it easy to dive into Pannithor and Kings Of War using the tried and tested Dungeons & Dragons 5E rules which most people are probably very used to by now.
- Leap straight into the action with 5E rules enhanced with heroic options.
- A summary of Pannithor and its denizens, providing a brief overview of the rich lore that breathes life into the world.
- A free introductory adventure designed to introduce the GM and players to the fantastic setting and sharp rules.
- Six pre-generated characters drawn from across Mantica, allowing the GM and players to charge headlong into the action.
A lot of the similar flavour is still there but obviously, this could be a good way to experience Pannithor and Kings Of War if your group doesn't want to learn an entirely new set of mechanics. As well as being presented here as part of the Quickstart Guide there will be full conversion rules available as part of the Kickstarter if they get the funding they need.

Sounds like a game well worth looking into.
It’s also on drivethrurpg if you don’t want to register with Red Scar.
The kickstarter for the main ruleset just launched. It uses an original system called Tricore and looks like it’s worth checking out (especially if you are a bit tired of vanilla rpg systems of a certain fifth persuasion).

Not sure what the 5E support will be going forward but if they have done the work for a quickstart version then it may not be too much work to do it for the main release
