Fantastic Heroes & Witchery is a simulacrum of the well known role-playing game Dungeons and Dragons that features fighters, clerics and magic-users prowling mysterious dungeons, and combating dragons to take their treasures. It is not a clone of a particular edition (like OSRIC being a clone of “1e”), but a combination of several editions from “classic” to “3e,” to which were added a lot of options. In fact, if you are already acquainted with a previous edition of the game, this one is very similar, and thus you already know the rules. The main differences do not consist in new and complicated game mechanics, but in providing new classes for the Science-Fantasy, Swords & Planets and Horror genres, and handling priests in a different way.
OSR Compatible: Most (if not all) adventures published for earlier editions of the game or its clones, are usable with Fantastic Heroes & Witchery. Then, spells, magical items and monsters created for earlier editions and clones, are also still usable with this game as they are. Then, game masters’ manuals and supplements, as well as campaign settings, remain useful when you run Fantastic Heroes & Witchery rather than the game they were created for.
