Hawkmoon and Elric RPGs Unveiled

Click image to enlarge

Mongoose Publishing is proud to announce the acquisition of the rights to publish roleplaying games based on the Eternal Champion books of Michael Moorcock. As long term fans of Mr Moorcock, this is a special moment for many of the staff here at Mongoose, and we look forward to exploring the multiverse over the next few years as we collaborate with the author to bring you the very best of Eternal Champion adventuring.

The first in the new line, the Hawkmoon RPG, will be published on June 11th, heralding the start of the Eternal Champion series of games. This will quickly be followed by Elric of Melnibone, released on July 2nd, these books written by Gareth Hanrahan and Lawrence Whitaker respectively.

The Eternal Champion rulebooks use the RuneQuest system, both completely self-contained and compatible with the rest of the RuneQuest line (so, if you want to use the Elric summoning rules in Glorantha, you will find they just slot straight in - or perhaps you will prefer to use the weapons in Arms & Equipment in Hawkmoon. . .).

These will be followed by Granbretan and Bright Shadows, covering iconic areas of the Elric and Hawkmoon novels, and later books will detail the settings further, building into full blown lines that will allow your characters to travel the multiverse or fight their battles on single worlds. Rumours of a forthcoming Corum RPG should not be dismissed as simple gossip either.

More details of the Hawkmoon and Elric of Melnibone RPGs can be found at the links below, along with previews and character sheets ready for download.
