Ruma: Dawn of Empire

ADD TO WISHLIST >
Selected Option:

Citizen! The burgeoning Ruman Empire needs your help bringing civilization to the savages.
Ruma: Dawn of Empire is a tabletop roleplaying game set in an alternate Roman Empire where myth and magic are real. The Empire has just begun to push its borders into neighboring lands, only to be met by savage barbarians, murderous beasts, magical forests, and strange horrors. Ruman generals and senators have formed small cohorts of specialized troops to discover and counter these threats. You and your friends are members of such a cohort.

The game is powered by the Apocalypse Engine, created by D. Vincent Baker & Meguey Baker for their game Apocalypse World. The engine also runs many other awesome games, such as Dungeon World by Sage LaTorra and Adam Koebel, The City of Judas by Davide Pignedoli, and Legacy: Life Among the Ruins by James Iles. Ruma: Dawn of Empire owes a great deal to these games, and many others.

Inspiration for Ruma can be found in movies such as 300, Ben Hur, Centurion, Clash of the Titans, The Eagle, Gladiator, and Immortals; TV shows like Rome and Spartacus; and novel series like The Oath of Empire by Thomas Harlan and The Videssos Cycle by Harry Turtledove.

Wasn't there a quick start of Ruma at some point? There's a link to it on the kickstarter page but it's broken.

I'm curious about the book unfortunately the preview doesn't tell much about the game.

My apologies, but it's unlikely. The Italian translation for the preview was done by a volunteer.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
