Faeries, Revised Edition is a supplement about faeries and the Faerie Realm.


Compatibility

Although Faeries, Revised Edition was written for ArM3, it should be usable with ArM4 with little trouble. It is not, however, compatible with ArM5. The rules, including the background definition of what the Faerie Realm is, have changed too much.

Player Reviews

Until about 2005, the original Ars Magica FAQ site solicited reviews of Ars Magica products from the community. The online review submission form is no longer available, but please feel free to edit this page to add your own comments. A synopsis of the survey results for this book is:

FAQ Rating: \*\*\*\* (11 reviews; 0 *, 1 \*\*, 3 \*\*\*, 7 \*\*\*\*)

  • Even better than the original. Workable rules for 'regio' are a plus.
  • A must-have (different from the 1st ed.)
  • Best medieval RPG supplement I have
  • Wonderful, wonderful book. Can't praise it enough.
  • Necessary, and a good read, but the mechanics no longer mesh properly with the later books.
  • Does a pretty good job of presenting faeries as alien entities, not demi-humans. Too much and poor fiction for my taste.
  • Very useful if you have a fairy element in your game.
  • Footnotes in the margins a nice feature.
  • Very good take on Fae, dated a little, but generally the flavour of the courts and Faerie is well presented and woven into ME.
