From Renegade Game Studios:
Vikings, grab your shield and weapon of choice, and venture onto the North Sea in this new RPG! Designed by Tim and Kristin Devine, and published in partnership with Garphill Games, this roleplaying game is set in the North Sea universe of games, including the award winning Raiders of the North Sea.
While the GM will be the main narrator in the game, players are encouraged to help shape the story. Players take on the role of their Heroes and interact with the Scenes, NPCs and other Heroes. In the North Sea Epilogues, Heroes will embark on adventures and face many Challenges. Players may attempt any kind of action they wish when trying to overcome these Challenges. For most actions, the GM will ask players to roll a twenty-sided die. When dice are involved, the GM secretly sets the Difficulty Level for dice rolls to overcome. The players involved choose which of their Skills to use and roll their dice. The GM will interpret the roll and summarize the impact based on the Challenge they set. Regardless of the Outcome, both players and the GM will help describe what happened. There are no meaningless rolls, as all of them help advance the story.
As with the board games set in the same universe, Epilogues is based loosely in history. While heroes won’t be fighting ice giants and other mythological creatures, they may still believe in such beings and unworldly forces. Create heroes and set out to battle enemies, uncover mysteries and gain reputation. The possibilities are endless and the North Sea is waiting. So ready the longboats and prepare to forge an exciting and epic saga!
