Space-Age Sorcery is an amazing weird fantasy magic supplement for your OSR game. I remember seeing this a few years back, but at the time I wasn't as into weird fantasy and I played mainly Pathfinder and 4th Edition D&D. Now that I'm a bit older and wiser, I really appreciate the thought and work that went into this labour of twisted love. It contains over 100 spells, a chart detailing how this magic can corrupt a "normal" caster, 1d6 spell-based scenario-seeds, 1d6 random magic items, and 1d6 encounters. Seriously, this pdf and it's spells are insane. They'd fit perfectly into a game featuring the Islands of Purple Haunted Putrescence. I think they'd also fight nicely into an Astonishing Swordsmen & Sorcerers of Hyperborea game. I would love to get a Swords and Wizardry game going soon and if I do, I'll drop some of this material into the game.
I often drop these into my DCC games but nobody ever takes them up (I use the Crawl! Fanzine OSR spell rules)
ReplyDeleteThat's a great idea.
DeleteI can't believe I've never heard of that before. Just read through it and it was awesome.
