1400 SNEAK – The 1400 Lo-Fi Hi-Fantasy zine is now live on Kickstarter!
Story
1400 Lo-Fi Hi-Fantasy is a collection of five rules-lite fantasy micro-games with a shared ruleset. Each game has its own character options and variant rules, which can plug-and-play to tailor the game to the perfect experience for your table. The zine also includes concise player and GM guidance which is applicable not only to 1400, but most tabletop roleplaying games.
Quest – Heroic fantasy adventures that tap into the ‘classic’ D&D-esque RPG space. Pick a class and ancestry, grab some gear, and get exploring,
Below – Dungeon crawl with a darker vibe. Introduces magic (and cursed) items, new rules for harm, and tables for dungeon locations, hazards, and enemies.
Sneak – Shadowy heists and assassinations. Play a vagabond pulling off secretive and daring jobs. Introduces gadgets and spells for players, and rules for running heists.
Mage – High magic spellslinging adventures with expanded rules for spellcasting, and over fifty extra spells across five specialties.
Planes – Explore the multiverse as one of twenty ancestries, including Cambion, Myconid, and Reptite. Includes tables for the GM to populate an entire universe with adventure.
Additional pages of the zine will focus on helping the GM run the game as best they can, and will include advice on combining the five games together, running the game, and creating fun and memorable adventures.
The System
The core game of 1400 Lo-Fi Hi-Fantasy uses an easy-to-learn, skill-based system, where players roll a larger numbered polyhedral die the better their skill. Character creation is quick and easy, and the game focuses on narrative-driven gameplay and prioritises player agency and inventiveness. The core system is based on the 24XX SRD by Jason Tocci.
