Outside the stone walls of the city lay foreboding wilderness, dangerous dungeons, and worse. Vicious beasts lurk in the shadows, waiting to tear you asunder. Strange beings lurk f ar under the surface of the world. Evil magic runs wild in the forgotten places. It's dangerous to go alone. Take someone with you. Mercs and Masters is a 50 card deck of Henchmen, Retainers, and Specialists for Old School Essentials and other OSR games. There's adventurers of all stripes, just waiting to sign onto your next expedition - if the price is right. But it's not just martial power that awaits in these cards. The deck also includes a variety of specialists the PCs can hire, from Alchemists to Sages. They're a far cry from a generic hireling. Each card has fantastic art (mostly by the fine folks at Ink Potion Studios), a few notes on personality, and a stat block (when applicable.) Suddenly, the PCs aren't just hiring a wizard, they're hiring Tinley Farseer, a 6th level wizard who gets a cough whenever he's out in the rain. Then there's Kork Bitterspice, who will stop to pet every dog they can and claims to have been raised by wolves. These henchmen are characters the players won't soon forget. Each deck of 50 cards comes in an attractive tuck box. For the print and play folks, the PDF will be ready to send to your printer. Show more
