Nocked! True Tales of Robin Hood

Andrew G. Schneider |

You are Robin of Locksley. Hounded from your home by the Sheriff of Nottingham, take control of your fate in this lushly illustrated role-playing game. Rob from the rich, rally the people, build a settlement, and battle the Sheriff of Nottingham for control of Sherwood Forest. By your actions, gain gold, renown, followers, and even a measure of grace. Then spend those resources to fortify your forest home, accomplish special missions, and change the course of Sherwood’s destiny. Will you save your plundered gold to rebuild the walls of your home, or send it to the poor and dispossessed to increase your renown and attract Merry Men to your cause? And what of the rising bounty on your head? Consider your choices carefully, for there are always consequences to your actions, even if they are not immediately apparent. For better or ill, in ways both small and large, you will change the course of history.
