The Adventurer Conqueror King System Nabs Distribution Deal



A tabletop RPG from the publisher of The Escapist is coming to a store near you.

If you're in the New York area and you love tabletop roleplaying, you might want to head over to Game Salute [http://sohodigart.com/] to bring ACKS to gaming stores everywhere. The 272-page hardcover book should be in stores this winter.

In addition to the announcement, the Soho Gallery of Digital Art will be celebrating the gamer lifestyle. When you play any roleplaying game, your character sheets can be works of art. I know players who sketched out their character when they started play and tweaked the image as they gained more loot (or changed sex!). Maps are especially important for how we interpret the imaginary world in which our characters inhabit, and a group called the many beautiful images created by Ryan Browning for ACKS [http://plagmada.org/Home.html]. The show runs from today until January 11th.

If heading down to an art gallery seems a little fru-fru, there's going to be some serious dice-rolling going on tonight as well. Tavis Allison will be running a module for ACKS as part of his Adventuring Parties program [http://www.adventuringparties.com/] that facilitates RPG events for parties and events. The module he's running? None other than Erol Otus's Island Town, which will be the first 3rd party module to be fully-compatible with ACKS.

And if that wasn't enough, there's going to be some sexy performances by the ladies of d20 Burlesque. [http://www.d20burlesque.com/about/]

So let's recap. Wine. Cheese. D&D themed art. Maps. Tabletop gaming. Gamer ladies gyrating while wearing d20 costumes.

Here are the complete details:
