New catalogue & DRAKAT Games acquisition   Leave a comment

It’s been over two years, but it’s here at last: Catalogue 11! As well as the usual comprehensive information about every Draken Games product, there’s also news about our acquisition of DRAKAT Games, along with their entire catalogue of gaming products!

And not forgetting our traditional free mini-game! This one is called Incident at Irgo Island and it’s a hex-and-counter game of aerial combat in a Victorian sci-fi alternative history. Just click on the image below to get all this for absolutely NOTHING!

Another catalogue, another free game…   Leave a comment

Draken Games Catalogue 10 truncated cover image

Hi everyone,

Just a reminder that Catalogue 10 is out now and includes the free hex-and-counter wargame 1875: Mars Attacks Essex! Inspired by HG Wells’ War of the Worlds, this is designed to be concise (an A4 board and just two pages of rules) and quick (half an hour per game at most). As with all our catalogue freebies, once the catalogue is retired the game won’t ever be available for free again!

You can download your free copy at wargamevault or wargamedownloads.

Enjoy!

Catalogue 9 (plus freebies) out now   Leave a comment

Ok, so after two years I have finally produced a new catalogue, and it’s now available from wargamevault and drivethruRPG (and hopefully from wargamedownloads soon as well). As ever, all our game products are described in detail, with some insights from the author (ie me!) and quotes from customer reviews.

I am also maintaining the tradition of including a free game with each catalogue – or rather two free games in this case. Just like Catalogue 8, the new one features a mini-RPG scenario written for Argor FRPG followed by a linked mini-wargame. Together they’re called Escape from the Trow. You can play either as stand-alone games if you like.

To download your FREE copy just go here!

It has been a long time coming, but I’m starting early play tests of a new free mini-game to include in Catalogue 9. Same format as Catalogue 8: an RPG mini-scenario written for Argor rules, followed by a mini-wargame. The wargame can either follow-on from the events of the scenario or be played as stand-alone. More news when the catalogue nears completion!

Freebie reminder!   Leave a comment

Don’t forget, if you download our utterly free catalogue you get two free games with it: an Argor FRPG mini-scenario AND a mini-wargame. You can either play them in combination (with the scenario outcome affecting the battle) or as stand-alone games. You need to have the rules for Argor to play the scenario, but the wargame comes complete with its own rules.

Get Catalogue 8 while you can: I’m working on the freebie for Catalogue 9, and once that’s done Catalogue 8 – and its free games – will be withdrawn.

Just click on the image below to go to our store at drivethruRPG, where you can download the catalogue for free.

Update   Leave a comment

I know it’s all gone a bit quiet with us lately, but there is something in the works! Catalogue 8 (which died with my hard drive) is being resurrected. What’s delaying it is the freebie game: all the development work on it was lost, so I’m starting from scratch. It’s a two-part freebie this time: an Argor FRPG mini-scenario followed by a wargame. The scenario outcome affects the wargame (but you CAN skip the RPG element if that’s not your thing!).

I won’t tempt fate by stating publication date… sometime this spring, let’s say!

So, the next catalogue…   Leave a comment

Just where is it? Well I had a double-barrelled freebie planned this time: an Argor mini-scenario AND a mini-wargame all ready to go but, with just the finishing touches needed to the RPG scenario, my damn hard-drive broke, totally and very permanently. And no I hadn’t backed it up lately. So…. back to square one.

Apologies for the delay!

New catalogue (with free RPG resource) out NOW   Leave a comment

Draken Games Catalogue 7 is now available for download! And in keeping with recent tradition, there’s a gaming freebie included. Previous freebies have been simple hex-and-counter games, but to mark the recent launch of Argor FRPG we’re offering a game resource this time. The School of Axios gives full details of the wandering southman magic user Axios and the small school of magic he has set up on Mainisle. There’s a full description of Axios himself, stats for his servants and the complete School of Axios spell book, featuring six new spells. There is also a description of the College House, with floor plans.

Obviously this resource is designed for Argor, but with a bit of work it could be made useable with a wide range of fantasy RPGs.
