From the introduction: Age Of Legends is a setting for the fast and flexible 6d6 RPG. To play this game you require the 6d6 Core rule book. The game is of an epic nature and players and Game Leaders are encouraged to think big. Heroes should be heroic but the legends are also full of tragedy and death. A hero of Greece is much more likely to die young, betrayed by someone (or some god) they trust than they are to die of old age. The individual fate of a champion is irrelevant compared to the legend they leave behind.
