“No Sunday afternoon seems complete without a family action-fantasy movie.  Thoughts of a return to the classroom were banished for a couple of hours on the sofa, as legendary heroes clashed with stop motion monsters thanks to larger-than-life producer Sidney Barron and his collaboration with Rough Diamond Studios.”

Gibson Matthews, Cult Zone Magazine, May 1992


7th Voyage brings the world of stop motion movies and action-adventure programmes to life as a tabletop miniatures game.

http://www.crooked-dice.co.uk/wp/product/7th-voyage-rulebook/

Based upon the myths of Ancient Greece, and the fables and stories of the Arabian Nights, you take command of the heroes or villains of legend. Whether you want to quest for the Golden Fleece or raid the nests of the fabled Rocs, 7th Voyage enables you to play out your favourite on-screen action as the story unfolds.

Great stuff  :-*

I was just watching the Golden Voyage of Sinbad  yesterday on TV and clash of the titans last week!  :)


( I'm off to have a go at sculpting some Ray Harryhausen Skeletons or maybe a Cyclops  :) )

Cheers

Entirely up to you! I can't imagine we'll sell out before but if you want to guarantee one, then feel free to preorder.

Regarding the PDF links: we have to send them manually if ordered with other hard copy stuff, so bear with us, but we try to process them within 24 hours.

I'll try and pop over early then - money's a bit tight, so a pre-order is out, but I'll hopefully have some cash on the day to get this :)
