The Propercare & Maintence of the Incorporeal Undead With Castles & Crusades Monsters & Treasure Book For The Castles & Crusades rpg

 With the Halloween season almost upon us Castles & Crusades Monsters & Treasure jumps into one's hands to take a look at the more traditional Siege Engine rpg systems for OSR style games. The number of undead within this tome is fantastic. But sometimes the DM needs a bit of extra edge & with Halloween only eleven days away it's time to bring in a bit of back up. 

James Mishler gets B/X style rpg's & he's been proving it again & again over time. Now we realize that C&C isn't B/X but it trails down that same Gygaxian old school trail. And that's where Ghosts -- The Incorporeal Undead By James Mishler, & Jodi Moran-Mishler From Mishler Games comes in really handy.

 Take your favorite incorporeal C&C  undead & add in a plethora of ghostly abilities such as the following:

Not only will have your players guessing but they'll hate you for 'ruining' the standard C&C Monsters & Treasure book. Well not really your simply applying a different slant to the classic ghostly & incorpeal inhabitants of your ruins or dungeon. Don't believe me check out Gregory B's review highlights of Mishler's Ghosts The Incorpreal Undead; 

"GHOSTS offers a complete paradigm of incorporeal undeadness for any D&D-ish style rules set. There are completely statted ghost types, discussion of how mortals interface with the sidereal world, and a good number of new spells to enrich your game's ghostly experiences." This brings up a very important point for Ghosts, it can move the simple one dimensional ghosts into being an important & unique undead horror NPC that can add a bit of tragic or down right disturbing dungeon decor.This NPC can come in handy  to your favorite ruin or adventure location by adding a key piece of campaign lore or dungeon trival.  Another aspect that Ghosts offers are simple & highly effective rules on the sixth sense  & sensitives being able to sense the spirit world. Mishler has done some highly effective rules regarding Mediums and Séances.   These rules helps move ghosts from a monster with X amount XP to something that can be worked into an adventure  plot. We also end with  information on ghost-sensitive animals & how they interact with the spirit world..  All of this material folds into the Monsters & Treasure book allowing the DM to go that extra mile from turning a simple ghostly horror into a giant encounter of epic proporations.  Ghosts -- The Incorporeal Undead By James Mishler, & Jodi Moran-Mishler From Mishler Games Is Available Right Over Here
