Looking for Rolemaster books from 1989
« on: October 29, 2016, 06:30:44 AM »
Hi all,

I used to play using the box set of Arms Law & Claw Law, Magic Law, and Character & Campaign Law.
This is also known as Rolemaster (2nd Edition, Revised) [BOX SET] and was published in 1989.

I would really like to get my hands on this (in PDF format has my preference) as I am want to set up my old game again.

Does anyone know where I can purchase these specific books in PDF format? I've been searching for 2 days now and I can't find anything.

See attachement for a photo of the books and the box itself.

I noticed I can get the books right before these. So the unrevised ones sort-a-say. Does anyone know if there is a big difference? Else I could make do with those - but I don't want to buy the older version only to find out its totally different.

Thank you in advance.

Your not Likely to Find PDFs of the old RM2 books anywhere. though yes, that would be nice.

However, you can get the Rolemaster Classic Versions in PDF on drive through RPG.. These are mainly just reorganized/Edited Versions of the RM2 books.

Sadly, the best chance would be E-bay, used book stores, online book stores.  The PDF versions aren't there.  You'd have to have the physical books and most likely in used condition.

I have the original RM2 box set and I wanted to get a "back up set" in pdf format and it's just not there.

Only in Print, but Noble Knight tends to have a reasonable collection and in varying degrees of quality
