Modiphius just keeps them coming as Chris Birch recently announced the company has entered into a partnership with Järnringen to distribute their dark fantasy RPG Symbaroum. The print and PDF bundle of the system core book is available now for an MSRP of $50.99, or the PDF alone for $18.99, and the volume hits your FLGS in March.
From Modiphius:
Symbaroum invites you to join in the adventure! Explore the vast Forest of Davokar in the hunt for treasures, lost wisdoms and fame. Visit the barbarian clans to trade or to plunder their treasuries. Establish a base of power among princes, guilds or rebellious refugees in the capital city of Yndaros. Or survive encounters with Arch Trolls, dark-minded Blight Beasts and undead warlords. But whatever you do, never ignore the warnings spoken by the wardens of the forest: tread carefully and do not disturb the ruins of old, for the dark deep of Davokar is about to awaken.
