Steampunk Musha: The Classes of Rosuto-Shima

ADD TO WISHLIST >

Samurai, ninja, ashigaru, sōhei, and a wide variety of other classes exist in the vibrant culture of Rosuto-Shima. Some of these classes are drawn directly from the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game hardcover books, with little or no modification. Others are more tricky, especially some western-inspired character classes that have no clear analogy in an Asian setting. But this is Rosuto-Shima, a land in flux, where foreign gaijin draw into port daily, bringing unfamiliar practices to challenge the ancient ways of tradition.

Steampunk Musha is a campaign setting for the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game of a land in conflict with itself, seeking balance. Ancient traditions developed in natural isolation from “barbaric” cultures are put at odds with an industrial revolution imported by Outsiders from beyond the Sea. A war-torn land enjoys a cold-war’s peace as the rulers of a dozen city-states vie to reform a once golden empire to their liking; some choosing tradition and magic, while others choose science and technology, and others still stranger things. New lines are being drawn as the tense peace is tested time and again as everyone becomes caught-up in the confluence of a land in the midsts of a revolution.

It looks as though there's only one character type in this file, yet the table of contents introduces 5 classes, but without any development of them. Is it supposed to be only about the cowboy and nothing else?

The Shangti Cowboy is fully presented. The rest of the book deals with representing other classes and archetypes from the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game in the setting of Steampunk Musha. For example, we're saying that any "character class" can be a ninja, but the ninja class represents a specific type of ninja. We introduce a few minor changes to a bunch of classes to make them fit an east Asian setting. All the other classes fit into the setting in different ways, and the rest of the book deals with that.

will the other classes mentioned in "Steampunk Musha Explorers Guide" be popping up in this book later on, or in additional releases? Or is the Shangti Cowboy be all we're getting?

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
