your available cast of characters for sci-fi and
fantasy swashbuckling. It includes guidelines and
tools to help you build your own fantasy and

product line , Honor + Intrigue, is
now available!

standalone game from Basic Action Games. Inspired as much by
Hollywood as by history, Honor
+ Intrigue pays homage to the
swashbucklers of the silver screen as well as
great works such as those of Dumas and
Sabatini. Game Masters should feel
free to use history as a source of inspiration,
not a restriction.True
to its inspiration, Honor
+ Intrigue plays fast and
cinematic, leaving the focus on drama and action
unfolding.
