Greek Myth Inspired ‘Arkadia’ 5E Sourcebook is Available in PDF

Arkadia (Arcana Games)A mighty interesting looking new 5E sourcebook has arrived in PDF from Arcana Games. Arkadia brings a Greek mythology themed setting to your adventuring with plenty of gaming materials to dig into. The 100 page PDF for Arkadia is now available on DriveThruRPG for $20.00. Although Arkadia appears to be filled with lots of very cool artwork, in my opinion that twenty dollar tag is way too pricey for a hundred page PDF – especially of a product which was successfully Kickstarted…

From Arcana:

Arkadia is a combined setting and players handbook for 5e – inspired by the history and myths of Ancient Greece.

The book contains 100 pages of densely packed all new Greek themed content for both Players and GMs.
