It’s been a while since I’ve done any exploration of Théah in review form, and thanks to backing the 7th Sea 2nd Edition Kickstarter, I now have a new book to jump into.

Branching out: 7th Sea Khitai Quickstart
It’s been a little while since I’ve done a 7th Sea post, and with a newly-arrived PDF, why not go back to Theah for at least a short moment?

Riding the Sands: 7th Sea and the Crescent Empire
While the meat of the action of 7th Sea has traditionally taken place in mainland Théah and the open seas, the second edition offered the promise of fleshing out the rest of Terra (Earth), beginning with the Crescent Empire.

As you may have guessed from reading last week’s post about 7th Sea’s Nations of Théah: Volume 1, I’ve been getting a bit jaded and having a number of concerns about the game line. While some of it may be due to my adoration of the first edition, I think the bigger problem is a… Continue Reading →

Setting Sail with 7th Sea: Pirate Nations
After much excitement and impatiently waiting, we backers were given access to the first true splatbook and setting resource for 7th Sea Second Edition: the Pirate Nations book.

7th Sea 2nd Edition: Heroes and Villains Sourcebook Review
After all of the talking I’ve done about 7th Sea so far, you’d probably think I was done talking about it. As you can probably guess by this post, the answer is “No, I’m not done.” Since I backed the project at the Pirate level, I’ll be getting the first wave of “pirate’s booty” in… Continue Reading →
