Greetings and salutations to a game sandwich unboxing
0:05
I say that because this is the Pendragon TT RPG Rollset set in King Arthur's Britain
0:12
I'm not going to give a British accent, but I am going to open this box
0:16
We should have opened it with the Master Sword. A box! Within a box
0:21
Enjoy kiddies. Chaosium Inc. released this set on June 12th. Kind enough to send us a review copy to talk about here on Game Sandwich
0:34
First thing I'm noticing is that absolutely stunning looking The Grey Knight, a Pendragon campaign
0:43
Now The Grey Knight is a campaign in the world of the Pendragon series where you fight Death's
0:48
companion, The Grey Knight, seen there holding a sword with a snake wrapped around it
0:54
Also I assume a sort of rose knight and some snake themes as well
0:58
And this is The Grey Knight you get to fight against. Absolutely stunning art
1:03
We'll go on to the next one. The core rulebook here. And of course the core rulebook is going to tell you everything you need to know how to
1:09
play the Pendragon roleplaying game. Very similar to any other tabletop roleplaying game, but of course it has its own stats
1:17
its own themes, its own characters, and way to make and play your own face
1:21
There we see beautiful Britain displayed armor, knights, round table, all that good stuff
1:29
Another stunning cover. And Gamora makes a shadowed appearance as she walks and jumps past the book here
1:34
Gamora is a big fan of tabletop roleplaying games. She is our cat. You'll see her again later I'm sure
1:39
She returns! The great black and white fluff. Opening the core rulebook here, we'll just skim through a few pages
1:48
Or look at the back. See that more absolutely breathtaking art. What kind of a knight will you become
1:54
So you get to hang out in King Arthur's court where he assembled his knights to the round
1:59
table and you get to go and explore Britain where King Arthur was ruling at the time
2:05
Sword, shield, all that good fun stuff. Code of arms generator to make your own unique arms and heritage for your player character
2:14
Has affliction rules, obsession rules, directed traits, ideals and all that. Very similar you know TTRPG kind of feel and vibe to it
2:22
Actually the book is thick but it's very very light which is very unique
2:27
Scroll through the first few pages. There we go the sword and the stone right away sets the scene for where you are so you
2:33
know hey this is Britain, this is King Arthur's court. Herald just talking about your own code of arms right there
2:41
This is the core rule book so it tells you how to build a knight, build a character
2:47
player character, traits and passions, character sheets, code of arms generation and the winter
2:52
phase, armor, weapons, horses and all the injury and health, everything you need to
2:57
know to play the game. Very stunning, very very light, very very pretty
3:01
I'll actually look straight out of some book you would find in that period
3:08
Very beautiful. Here Larry Diatello the author, not the cover designer
3:18
Of course the cover design you see in the table of contents we go to it's the same logo
3:23
right there. Cover artist is Loic Muzzy, if I'm pronouncing that correctly Loic, if I'm not I apologize
3:31
How about the art cover, The Gray Knight by Loic Muzzy, the specters of mysterious gray
3:36
knight in the enigmatic Lady de Voix loom over the tournament field at Carloyne as premonitions
3:41
of doom rush towards the brave defender of King Arthur's court. 86 pages just shy of 100 pages of running you through a campaign you can play with friends
3:49
around the table while defending yourselves against the gray knight. Very fascinating
3:56
I would say first glance I am very much eager that art and so I want to play this campaign
4:07
And that is a look at Chaosium's Pendragon Core rulebook and the Gray Knight campaign
4:15
