For the 1000th review here on The Gaming Gang, I bring you my thoughts about the second volume in the Cults of RuneQuest mythos/pantheon series, The Earth Goddesses, from Chaosium Inc. The 140 page hardcover is chock full of stunning and plenty of gaming material for players and Game Masters looking to bring this family of deities to their gaming table.

Cults of RuneQuest The Earth Goddesses Review

SUMMARY

Another fantastic release in the Cults of RuneQuest line. In fact, I like The Earth Goddesses just a bit more than The Lightbringers and if there were a score higher than ten it would receive it. Once again Chaosium Inc has packed a ton of useful content player and GMs into a pantheon book. This series really is now the gold standard for how fantasy roleplaying deity books should be presented.
