Compatibility

Although Faeries, Revised Edition was written for ArM3, it should be usable with ArM4 with little trouble. It is not, however, compatible with ArM5. The rules, including the background definition of what the Faerie Realm is, have changed too much.

FAQ Rating: \*\*\*\* (11 reviews; 0 *, 1 \*\*, 3 \*\*\*, 7 \*\*\*\*)

  • Even better than the original. Workable rules for 'regio' are a plus.
  • A must-have (different from the 1st ed.)
  • Best medieval RPG supplement I have
  • Wonderful, wonderful book. Can't praise it enough.
  • Necessary, and a good read, but the mechanics no longer mesh properly with the later books.
  • Does a pretty good job of presenting faeries as alien entities, not demi-humans. Too much and poor fiction for my taste.
  • Very useful if you have a fairy element in your game.
  • Footnotes in the margins a nice feature.
  • Very good take on Fae, dated a little, but generally the flavour of the courts and Faerie is well presented and woven into ME.
