Game Summary

From the publisher's website:
France and England have always been rivals.

As it has always been in Europe, so it is in America. From Quebec to the Great Lakes and the Mississippi Delta, New France offers a constant challenge to the British colonies. French troops garrison Quebec and Montreal. French forts dot the interior. French Louisiana – in theory, at least – extends from the Appalachians to the Rocky Mountains.

Welcome to New France

In this book you will find a complete description of New France, with information on its political structure, society, and major settlements. There are notes on making French colonial Heroes, including the famous coureurs des bois – the explorers, trappers, and traders who did much to open up the interior to France. Campaign settings on offer include the “Golden Age” of French power, the French and Indian War which created British Canada, and the Revolutionary War.

Allons-y! Pour la France – and let us teach these British that they do not own the New World!

Written by Gabriel Brouillard Colonial Gothic: New France opens up the world and shifts attention away from the English Colonies.

4 / 10g026rI want to like this, but overall it tries to cover too much ground in too few pages. The end result is that everything, save the NPC summaries, comes off as far too superficial. (And what's up with the Templar obsession? Far too many of the plot suggestions boil down to "Group X trying to find lost Templar treasure".)
