Advanced RuneQuest (1987)

From the back cover:

Now in hardback book format, the companion volume to the acclaimed RuneQuest Fantasy Roleplaying Adventure rulebook.

With this, the second volume in Games Workshop's series of hardback volumes based on Avalon Hill's Third Edition RuneQuest, players of this original, realistic, detailed and sophisticated game system can take their gaming to new highs. Featured within are additional rules for character backgrounds, special combat situations, spellcasting careers, new spells, creating and running adventures, and sea-borne gaming. And, for starter GMs, a complete and ready-to-play adventure, The Money Tree.

RuneQuest is the game which brought percentage-based skills systems to the forefront, allowing characters to develop unique patterns of expertise. Lastingly popular over more than ten years, RuneQuest represents one of the pinnacles of gaming achievement.
