...does anybody know this rpg?

http://cgi.ebay.com/FANTASY-IMPERIUM-Game-of-Historical-Fantasy-NEW_W0 QQitemZ280189272025

more than for collecting purposes, i am attracted by the underlying idea of storytelling in a historical fanstatic world... in a nutshell, is it worth to be played?

While I can't comment on the game I can tell you it was released 2006 and does come in a hardcover version as well and from memory there are a few places on ebay  selling the softcover version for a couple of $$ less.. (would you believe that I looked into this game a week ago... you stalking me?)

...sure! and as soon as you'll be not prepared, i'll backstab you! Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy

in any case, it seems this game had not a huge success... maybe it'd be better to give up...

i bought the thick hardcover at gencon 2006, but i haven`t actually opened it since.......sorry. i remember there were lots of historical weapons listed which made me want to buy it (being a rolemaster fan).

I've flipped through it, but have never opted to pick it up. I might, next time, just because. It does look interesting, and I doubt I'd play it, but it could prove a neat utility supplement game.
