Mythic Russia Hardcover Price: £24.00 Currently unavailable Core Rulebook by Firebird Productions. By Mark Galeotti. \'Once upon a time, east of the sun and west of the moon, there was a different place, but not too different...\' Mythic Russia is a complete roleplaying game and setting, taking the HeroQuest engine to the ancient Russia of history, legend and folktale, a land of glittering onion-domed churches and dark, dangerous forests, home to heroes, fiends - and the flame-feathered firebird. Russia. A land of icy winters and fiery passions, where the warrior who was trying to split you in half with his axe an hour ago may be swearing eternal friendship in an hour\'s time (a jug or two of vodka might help). A land just now throwing off Mongol rule and yet still not a country in its own right, in which princes scheme and bicker as they seek to make themselves tsar. A land torn between the new teachings of Christianity and the old, pagan ways of the wilds and the household spirit. A land where saints walk the day and mighty spirits of the forest walk the night, where the fish you catch may offer you three wishes for its life and the twinkle of light in the night might be the Firebird himself, leading lost children back home, or a stray moonbeam shining off the iron teeth of Baba Yaga, the man-eating witch. A land of deep, dark woods, in which humanity has still made few inroads, huddled in towns and around campfires in clearings and along rivers. A land of legend and folktale, history and myth, of triumph and tragedy. A land ready for adventure. This standalone 320-page book, available in both limited edition hardback and standard softback, includes all the rules necessary for play, as well as copious information on the setting, maps and both an introductory scenario and many adventure seeds.
