MERP SOURCES
« on: February 14, 2013, 01:40:56 PM »
Hello all, having posted on the MERPS website and not having a reply for about 10 days I am beginning to get the feeling that its not that active.  I now ask for your help.  I am looking for resources for the racesof
f man. The MERPS background book does have some but not that many. Does anyone know of any fan resources or otherwise that I can look at, I am particularly looking for the adolescence skill development ranks etc.

Many Thanks.

What books do you currently have for MERP and are you using MERP, RM2/RMC or RMSS/FRP?

That's the one I'm thinking of.  I'll look though some of my MERP books and see if there's any single one that would be useful.  You could go looking for the various "People of..." books put out for MERP by ICE, but you might end up paying a bit for them (you'd probably need to search ebay).

Try the Lords of Middle Earth series, there are three volumes. You sound like you are looking for Volume Two: Men.

Also look at Creatures of Middle Earth.

There were also a series of books that covered things like Cardolan, Arnor and the North, Rohan and so forth.
