Topic: Planning to run a Shadowworld Campaign

[Intrepidations]

Hello,
I have all the original modules and the RM2 books and I am planning to run a campaign in this setting at my local shop (I'm the owner).  Being the shop owner I would like to get some of the newer books in but what rule set is closest to the RM2 books that my customers could buy and use for the campaign?
Thanks in advance.

 The closest would be Rolemaster Classic (RMC) which is essentially updated RM2. But you will not find all of the old Rolemaster Companions (ROCO) in RMC as only ROCO 1 has been redone. The books are available in PDF and physical form.
 Another option is to get Rolemaster Express which is essentially RMC in smaller chunks with some other added rules. I do  not work for ICE so I do not know if they are available in book form as I have some of them in PDF form. It is a very cheep way to get into the game system.
  Maybe you could talk to ICE and work out a deal in which people buy the PDF from your shop and you get some of the profits or something.

Thanks for this, I have a few of those in stock so will see if I can get the rest.

We are planning on a multi GM campaign with 20+ players interacting with each other at different times so should be a lot of fun, and no doubt a lot of effort:)

Yes that does sound like lots of fun and IMO it can be some work but very worth it.
