This was a burn. It seems they tried to convert the system of the video game, mechanics and all, to tabletop, 1-to-1 with seeminly no understanding for what warty nonsense would come out of the other end.

During its original publication run, many people became frustrated with how long it took Green Ronin to release the individual box sets that comprised the Dragon Age core rules. While that's understandable, we should also evalute the quality of the end result. The Dragon Age Core Rulebook might be the single best RPG product ever concieved by humans. This one book provides comprehensive lore on Thedas. The tome also gifts us with complete rules on every possible encounter type, from blood soaked alleyway combat to political intriegue in a ball room that Marie Antoinette would call decadent. In one release, Dragon Age becomes more layered and detailed then most long game lines. The vast majority of core rulebooks claim to have everything you will ever need. This one delivers. This book is so good, its ruined other products for me. Read this, and your definition of "world building release" will change forever. Its not the cheapest core on DriveThruRPG, but spend the thirty bones. You will probably regret your current lover more then buying this book.

A while ago I downloaded the quick start rules for Dragon Age and filed it away. Just recently my son and I gave them a try. The rules where quick and fun. The system uses 3D6 with a different colored die called a "dragon" die. Certain rolls result in what's called stunt points that can be spent on special effects during combat. It was a fun twist of play.

I downloaded the core book when it came out not expecting much but was pleasantly surprised with the character creation and game play rules. The book also includes a detailed history and description of the world the characters adventure in. highlights include various organizations that characters can join like secret societies as well as rules to build organizations.

I've never played the video game so I'm not versed as to how closely the table top game follows it. The rules are easy to explain and I see this book as a great addition to any Fantasy genre's fan game nights.
