RPG: Trudvang Chronicles Gets 5th Edition Update
Swedish publisher Riot Minds has announced a 5th Edition conversion for their popular fantasy RPG: Trudvang Chronicles. More details inside.
Everyone is getting in on that 5th Edition action these days. It makes sense, it’s the most popular RPG system in the world by a long shot, and when you’ve got your own fantasy setting, I mean, those 5th Edition rules are right there. And when you’ve got a beloved campaign setting that has built up a loyal audience over the last few years, it’s a no-brainer to try and bring it to as many people as you can. Which is exactly what publisher Riot Minds intends to do with its newest offering, a 5th Edition adaptation of their Trudvang Chronicles world. Here’s the trailer, though be warned, it’s NSFW (if anyone’s even at W these days).

Trudvang Adventures 5E (TA5E) is anchored in a unique world setting of fused Celtic and Nordic myths and sagas. TA5E players are afforded the opportunity to explore the incredibly rich and visually stunning fantasy setting of Trudvang Chronicles while still remaining familiar and accessible for players of 5E. Both players and DMs will feel instantly at home and comfortable with the TA5E toolsets for their epic campaigns.
Trudvang Chronicles is a setting that’s been translated into a number of different countries, and you might have demoed its Trudvang Legends board game, designed by CMON, at last year’s Gen Con, slated for release later this year. As stated in their announcement, the 5th Edition update is headed for Kickstarter later this year, with the goal of bringing new supplements and adventures to both the 5th Edition and the original system:
“We envision this as an opportunity to reach a broader audience with 5E being another tentpole in our strategy to serve our player community and expand the Trudvang brand. However, for fans of the original Trudvang Chronicles RPG, rest assured that we will continue to support that game with an array of new supplements and adventures. We have an exciting and extensive release plan ahead – we can’t wait to share more information soon.”
Two books will lead the charge, a Hero Companion which provides players with everything they need to create “Trudvang Heroes”
…and the Setting Companion, which gives players and DMs alike a window into the dark fantasy world of Trudvang Chronicles.
Trudvang Adventures will be launched as a Kickstarter campaign May 23rd 2020. Happy Adventuring!
