Gallows Corner – A Peasants' Revolt RPG: Box Set
The year is 1376. Half of England's people are dead from plague, and you are a peasant among those who remain — and about to become an outlaw.
Gallows Corner – A Peasants' Revolt RPG is an alternate-historical tabletop roleplaying game about rising up against injustice and taking your life into your own hands. Play as outlawed peasants and the working classes, and pit yourselves against crown, nobility and church in a struggle for the soul of post-plague England. Grab your torch and pitchfork — it's time to change England once and for all.
A rules-light, narrative-first system, Gallows Corner empowers players to challenge the powerful, the greedy and the tyrannical, and to build a new version of England.
- Choose from 8 Trades and 48 Jobs to build your character in five minutes — your character is what they do
- Level up through the Retinue system, gaining followers who struggle alongside you
- Resolve checks and combat with a simple Dice Pool
- Liberate eight Regions (and London) through a deep Point Crawl system
This boxed edition collects all four Tales of Old England zines — A Spark Takes Hold, The Gold of Greenwood, The Enemy of My Enemy and The Book of Outlaws — plus digital PDF copies.
