Westlands 2D6 System Role-Playing Game

Westlands is a sword and sorcery RPG, allowing exploration and adventure in a savage land. Action resolution is quick, putting an emphasis on story, not rules.

We've taken the core open-license 2D6 fantasy reference material and added extra content, including reworked (more dangerous!) sorcery mechanics, optional rules for simple firearms, and an expanded bestiary.

The name Westlands is a nod to the West Marches RPG campaign style, which is a much more free-form, adventure-seeking campaign where the players decide their motivations and goals, rather than being directed via the game master.

Westlands is setting-neutral, and lets you create whatever adventure you imagine. It is built on the open-license reference material for Sword of Cepheus, which is a 2D6 fantasy RPG that is rooted in earlier 2D6 science-fiction RPGs.
