ARE YOU READY To take the next step?

Rhand:

Morningstar Missions was designed to optimize speed of play while maintaining realistic combat, but there is much more ahead.

SWORD'S PATH- GLORY Reference System The Sword's Path-Glory (SPG) fantasy role-playing system is a four book series covering all aspects of fantasy role-playing in a medieval setting.

The ultimate in realism was the goal and few concessions were made.

The result of years of play, SPG is for those who refuse to compromise.

It requires record keeping, a pocket calculator, and above average experience and ability.

Each modular book is designed as a reference, usable with any game.

The com- plexity ofSPG alone may be more than most may wish, but by combining aspects of SPG with Rhand the player can create a system of unmatched realism at varying levels of play.
