Ganesha Games: Sellswords and Spellslingers is a solo and cooperative fantasy miniatures game for 1 to 6 players. Each player creates a party of fantasy adventurers with a point system. Then players choose a scenario and try to complete a mission. Foes and events are moved automatically by a deck of cards. Characters grow with experience, and a list of campaign activities is provided.

Features of the game
Open source point system to create your heroes the way you want them, including giving them disadvantageous traits - Cooperative play - all players against the game instead of player vs player - Solo play - no opponents needed, you can run a party and the event cards will activate the monsters - Activation system (not IGOUGO) that creates fog of war and uncertainty - All monsters stats summarized on handy cards - Campaign activities - Your characters grow and do things other than just fighting monsters - RPG Lite - with creative players and the right attitude, it is possible to use Sellswords as a rules-light, GM-less rpg - All the rules use the same mechanism: roll a difficulty number on d20 for an action to succeed, with modifier for your characters' traits - Only player-characters roll dice. When it's the monster's turn to attack, PCs roll dice to defend
