Magpie Games Equipment Deck - Root: The Roleplaying Game expansion, 55 cards, weapons and equipment with stats, traits, and full-color original ar...

This little deck has a lot of great preset characters inside and makes rpg flow go so much easier and smooth. Includes 55 different npcs of different types. Good info, good builds. Artwork is cool as always.

This is a great set of character cards that help flesh out your Root RPG campaign with fun new characters that fit within the game universe. The cards include stats, motives, and requests for the vagabonds that can be fulfilled as part of your campaign. As with all Root products, the illustration is beautiful and the quality is impeccable, and the 55 new cards mean you'll have fresh material to draw on for some time to come. When I ordered this deck, I didn't actually realize that the Root RPG was even a thing! (I need to hang out on board game discussion groups more.) Our board gaming group has been playing the Root board game for years, so I was excited for a new expansion pack, but this is completely incompatible with the traditional board game and is an add-on for the D&D style tabletop RPG based on the same universe instead. Of course, I did what every rational gamer would do, and promptly bought the RPG book! My group is now diving into the RPG and considering planning our first tabletop campaign, and I'm impressed by the rules and clarity - it's a lot less intimidating than I'd thought a tabletop RPG would be, and it seems like a great introduction to the genre for people who already enjoy the world of Root. I'm excited to potentially spend more time with the characters and start telling our own stories, possibly inspired by some of our memorable trips through the board game, so I'm glad agreeing to review this deck accidentally introduced me to a whole new world of gaming fun!

Needs more lizards.

Awesome dice and fun to use during the games.

I'll be happy with this beautiful book on my shelf!
