WhiteвЂ™s The Once and Future King, it presents a melange of the legends that compacts a thousand years of history and French and British culture into just eight decades. Drawing from sources as diverse as the Welsh The Mabinogion, Sir Thomas MaloryвЂ™s fifteenth century Le Morte DвЂ™Arthur, and T.H. King Arthur Pendragon is as the title suggests an Arthurian roleplaying game. King Arthur Pendragon is Greg StaffordвЂ™s masterpiece and he was right to make such a claim. So the question is, is King Arthur Pendragon Greg StaffordвЂ™s masterpiece? Instead of making you wait until the end of the review to answer that question, that question will be answered here and the review will instead be used to explain why. That they are his final words on what he clearly states he considers to be his masterpiece, is sad but fitting. These place King Arthur Pendragon in context and explain StaffordвЂ™s reasons for his design decisions, his love of Arthurian legend, and more. Less obviously, but in hindsight, more importantly, in the addition of a set designerвЂ™s notes from the late Greg Stafford.

King Arthur Pendragon 5.2 would suggest that it is a relatively minor update to King Arthur Pendragon, Fifth Edith, but those changes are significant.

in 1985, it was never really a case of King Arthur Pendragon of actually being lost, for other publishers, most recently Nocturnal Media, had published highly regarded editions of the classic, most recently King Arthur Pendragon 5.2, but the award-winning roleplaying game-including the 1991 Origins Award for Best Roleplaying Rules for King Arthur Pendragon, Third Edition, and the 1987 Origins Award for Best Roleplaying Adventure and the 2007 Diana Jones Award for Gaming Excellence for The Great Pendragon Campaign-was first published by Chaosium, and so feels at home with the publisher. Much like the return of Glorantha to Chaosium, Inc.В with RuneQuest: Roleplaying in Glorantha, the return of King Arthur Pendragon felt like a long lost roleplaying game finally coming home.
