Now Available: V20 Dark Ages

v20daCan’t make it to Gen Con this year? No problem! Onyx Path has got you taken care of.

Now available in PDF and Print via DriveThruRPG: Vampire Twentieth Anniversary Edition: The Dark Ages!

It’s 1242. The Mongol army crushed Baghdad, then Russia under its heel, then moved on to devastate Poland and Hungary. The Holy Roman Empire stood to war with the Papacy. The second Lombard League wielded the word of the Pope and fought off Frederick II.

The War of Princes rages. Patricide looms. Young powers look up the ladder to the next rungs, and see stagnation and hypocrisy. They see targets. When they look down, they see humanity. They see a power that could change everything. They see mortals organizing into universities and empires.

In the mortal world of 1242, power shifted at the rate an army marched. For the undead, power shifts faster than a fire overtakes a haven. To the Damned, power flows as fast as blood from an ancient heart.

Vampire Twentieth Anniversary Edition: The Dark Ages is a storytelling game of horrific power.

  • Featuring 13 clans and 19 bloodlines, this volume spans the Dark Medieval World.
  • Contains full rules for play, inspired by Vampire: The Masquerade 20th Anniversary Edition.
  • Features new and updated player options, including a brutal new system for Koldunic Sorcery.

    My review of V20 Dark Ages on DriveThruRPG says that it’s a five-star release, even if I don’t 100% love everything in there. Rather, I gave that rating for the WAY it’s put together, with that notion of ‘the Golden Rule’ of taking what you like, changing what you must, and dropping what you don’t like ALL as valid reactions to the material presented… Even as I do quite like what’s in the book! The price for the PDF (just on a dollar-to-page ratio) is fantastically great!

    So my advice? Buy it! You’ll not regret it.*

    *If you DO regret it, feel free to blame me, but I’m not giving any money back. Sorry, but free advice is, well, as good as you pay for it? 😛

    Dude, it’s an absolutely gorgeous book. If it weren’t due to limited shelf space I’d be sorely tempted to buy a physical copy. The only thing I hate is not having a group to run it with or play in. That can be changed, but for now it’s a bit of an issue.

    So is this the original Vampire: the Dark Ages or the revised Dark Ages: Vampire with ‘High’ and ‘Low’ Clans?

      Neither. As noted, this is Vampire 20th Anniversary: The Dark Ages.
