All Rights Reserved.  \nDesigners’ Foreword  \nWelcome to HackMaster Basic (some purists might prefer to call it “5th Edition”) . If you’re reading this you might be  \nthinking,“My god—yet another fantasy role-playing game? Why bother?”This is the part of the book where we make our pitch.  \nHackMaster Basic has truly been a labor of love. We have a passion for fantasy role-playing at Kenzer and Company. All of us here first picked up the dice and created our first characters in the late 1970’s. And we’ve spent the last 17 years working on role-playing products professionally. You might say it’s in our blood. HackMaster Basic takes the passion, know-how and attitude (more on that attitude in a moment) from the last edition along with years of experience garnered along the way and takes the game to the next level.  \nSo why another fantasy role-playing game in an already crowded market? Because not all games are created equal. And neither are gamers. We all come to the table with our own likes and dislikes as far as game style and play. No single game can be all things to all players. We created HackMaster Basic with one goal in mind—to be the game we ourselves would want to buy and play with our friends. This is the same approach to game design that earned us Best Game of the Year (for HackMaster 4th Edition) and Best RPG of the Year (Aces & Eights) . We happen to think there are others out there like us. So far we’ve been right.  \nNow a few things about HackMaster Basic you should know before we turn you loose.  \nFirst off what does “HackMaster Basic” mean…?  \nThis book provides just that—the basics. Everything the GM/Players need to run and play HackMaster for 1st through 5th level characters. All between two covers. And when you’re ready to take the next step? The HackMaster Player’s Handbook picks up where HMb leaves off. No need for conversions or changes to your characters or campaigns, just keep on playing.  \nIf you’re new to the HackMaster experience we welcome you. The adventure is just beginning. And if you’re a HackMaster 4th Edition fan coming to HMb with some concerns…? Let’s just say that we feel HackMaster Basic is the rightful heir to the game(s) we all cut our teeth on. We wouldn’t have put the HackMaster logo on the cover if we didn’t feel we had met that challenge.  \nOkay, a brief word on HackMaster’s unique style and a bit of back history. When HackMaster 4th Edition came out it earned something of a reputation among some gamers as being a ‘silly’ or ‘joke’ game. A few quickly dismissed it as being such. A pity. Fortunately tens of thousands of gamers were able to look beyond the veneer and recognize that there was a truly fun and unique game underneath and quickly embraced HackMaster as their","cbCaiiRjLKpoJ5A3","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiiRjLKpoJ5A3","pdf",20514851,232,"English","# Designers’ Foreword\n## What “HackMaster Basic” means\n## Style, tone, and back history\n## Fun vs. serious play","[{\"question\":\"What level range does HackMaster Basic cover?\",\"answer\":\"It covers everything the GM and players need to run and play HackMaster for 1st through 5th level characters.\"},{\"question\":\"Who is the book meant for?\",\"answer\":\"It welcomes new readers to the HackMaster experience and also addresses concerns from existing HackMaster 4th Edition fans.\"},{\"question\":\"Does HackMaster Basic require a “silly” or parody tone?\",\"answer\":\"No. HackMaster Basic is free of those licensing requirements, and the rules are designed to support both humorous play and deadly serious campaigns.\"}]","KC2500-HackMaster-Basic - read online free | PDF",1791255237,88]
