Samlaidh
Samlaidh has been a project which I have been working on and off on for the last 7 years. FJGaming was originally set-up to be a vehicle to deliver Samlaidh to the market. As is the way of these things though, Samlaidh has never quite got to a point where I've felt ready to release it for sale so instead I have decided to release it for free. There are various incarnation of the game, using different dice mechanics. The two here are the Trait based d6 version and the d6 version inspired by Tunnels and Trolls. The latter version (well the rules at least) have since been recycled into Lances and Labyrinths which you can download elsewhere on the site. The former version is probably the "truest" version of Samlaidh, being the one which gets the closest to the goals I set myself when I started writing it.
There is another offshoot from Samlaidh called "AD44" which I will try and sort out into some reasonable order and publish here as well. Samlaidh is set in the period just after the Romans "left" Britain and focusses on the conflicts between the encroaching Saxons, Picts and the Celts and Romano-Britains. AD44 is set during the invasion of the isles by the Romans and casts the player characters in the role of native Britons fighting to repel the invading legions.
