From publisher blurb:
In honor of the 50th anniversary of Dungeons and Dragons, we're going all the way Old School with this zine! Old School & Cool Volume 5 throws you smack dab in the middle of an epic siege on a mysterious keep.
The zine centers around a mysterious castle—a keep on the borderlands of reality that is under siege in every world at once. Its defenders must keep the ceaseless hordes that attack it from every corner of the multiverse at bay. Why do they lay siege to the castle? What do they want? Will they ever break through? And what role will your group take in the battle—will they join the attackers and seek glory in breaking through the eternal fortifications, or will they attempt to protect the besieged keep and the mysteries it holds?
Whether you want to answer these questions, or just roll up some quick and deadly siege equipment, we've got you covered. Within this book there's something for every party: streamlined rules for mass combat, random tables galore, a fully statted keep, deadly weapons of war, exciting shop inventories, new shopkeeper personalities and motivations, and more!
