Review: "Victoriana 3rd Edition Core Rulebook" Part 1: "Encyclopaedia Victoriana"
Today I have a slightly different review for you all: a review of a roleplaying rulebook for one of my favourite systems I have ever played or run in!
I have mentioned before in my blog posts that I frequently play in RPGs (roleplaying games). I started in my first year of university playing in a 3.5 Dungeons and Dragons game and haven't looked back since! In my third year of university I ran my very first campaign in the 2nd Edition Victoriana system/setting, and since have run over fifty sessions using that rulebook. It is one of my favourite RPGs out there as it appeals to both my interest in steampunk and Victorian settings and my love of magic.
When I heard a new edition was coming out I was extremely excited, and now, having been given the book for Christmas, I want to take a look at it in the sections it is divided into, and look at how the game has changed from the previous edition. Today I am looking at "Book 1: The Encyclopaedia Victoriana and Selected Articles".
