Basic Rules for the Majestic Fantasy RPG.
I got the proof copies of the Basic Rules and and they look good. At the urging of a friend I took the time to create the cover for Hardcover version so you will have the option picking either as your budget allows.
The Basic Rules for the Majestic Fantasy RPG, Hardcover, $19.99
The Basic Rules for the Majestic Fantasy RPG, PDF, $9.99
A set of rules for creating and advancing characters from level 1 to 5. Has the Burglar, Cleric of Mitra, Fighter, and Magic User classes, plus backgrounds, combat rules, equipment, and spells. For the referee there are lists of monsters, NPCs, and magic items suitable to challenge and reward your players during a campaign. These rules feature abilities for use for when character do things outside of combat and spellcasting. Along with advice for referees on how to use the available mechanics to craft rulings. Finally, a basic overview of how to bring the world outside of the dungeon to life is provided.
A 204 page RPG compatible with the Swords & Wizardry rules
This is a series of printed (or PDF) aids that I use to help players to quickly generate characters for the Basic Rules for the Majestic Fantasy RPG. This aid is in the form of printed cards or tiles. There is an initial card that you hand the player that outlines how the character generation process works. From there, the players pick a class, a background, and buy equipment using the individual cards as a reference to fill out their character sheet.
The print version is made using 8” by 10” coated stock. They are quite sturdy and appear to be resistant to spills and stains. The printed version has 20 cards that support up to 5 player generating characters. Five common cards and three cards for each of the classes and three spell reference cards.
Majestic Fantasy, Basic Rules, Reference Cards (PDF) $3.99
This is a series of printed (or PDF) aids that I use to help players to quickly generate characters for Swords & Wizardry Complete by Frog God Games. This aid is in the form of printed cards or tiles. There is an initial card that you hand the player that outlines how the character generation process works. From there, the players pick a class, a background, and buy equipment using the individual cards as a reference to fill out their character sheet.
I have refined these cards over the past decade while running convention and game store sessions and found that it will allow a player to completely generate a character within 15 to 20 minutes.
These cards contain all of the information needed for assassins, clerics, druids, fighters, magic-users, monks, paladins, rangers, and thieves, for level 1 to 6. On the back of each class card is an equipment list.

Wilderlands of High Fantasy Deal of the Day
By happy coincidence, Wilderlands of High Fantasy Maps is the Deal of the Day over on DriveThruRPG. The deal will go live at 10 am Eastern Time, Saturday January 2nd.
Note that buying this will get you the Guidebook PDF as well. There are 18 maps to the Wilderlands divided into four sets of guidebooks and maps. This deal is for the first set of five maps including the City State of the Invincible Overlord.
The guidebook has an introduction and map commentary by me,. Each map in the guidebook is detailed with the following listings: Villages, Castles & Citadels, Idyllic Isles, Ruins & Relics, and Lurid Lairs. Any statistic or rule is compatible with Swords and Wizardry and various classic editions of the original roleplaying game.
This deal on the first set is a good way to see if folks like the series without having to invest all at once. You will be credited the cost of the PDF if you decide the buy the PDF bundle later. Finally if you decide to buy print, I include the PDF of maps and guidebooks at no additional charge. The print version of each map is two 12" by 18" poster maps. They also have a generous overlap to make joining the map easy or to track features across the map boundaries.

I am thankful for having all of you on board and looking forward to your feedback and input. The next thing up on my plate is wrapping up the Wild North which expands the Majestic Fantasy Realms to the region north of Blackmarsh.

Contrats on getting this out in the wild, Rob. I wasn't able to buy in during the KS, but glad to be able to do so now. I'm picking up the MW book and cards, but had a question about the SWC cards before I pull the trigger on those also. I have Complete, so can use them now, but do you plan on either updating them (if necessary) or releasing a new version once the box set arrives later this year that's specifically compatible with what will then be "core" S&W?
(Posted this question on FB also)
Yes. The long term plan is to go through the different OSR ruleset out there and make cards for each of them. That includes new editions if there are any major differences.
