It's Good To Be the King!

The learned and powerful might not labor, but they do work. Low-Tech Companion 1: Philosophers and Kings takes a look at the "technologies" they need to do their jobs at TL0-4. With it, you can:

  • Take charge by choosing your political system and learning what abilities you need to stay on top.
  • Wow the masses with temples, palaces, and monuments raised using the included construction rules.
  • Get the gods on your side through offerings, ceremonies, and altered states of consciousness.
  • Have bards sing your praises, helped by the detailed information on Musical Instrument specialties.
  • Bring enlightenment by making practical use of medical, scientific, and mathematical skills.
  • Spread your teachings with the expanded guidelines for tutelage, drills, and learning.
  • Chronicle your exploits, assisted by the rules for scripts, shorthands, and copying books.

Whether you're a GM designing a campaign setting or the player of one of the privileged few, Low-Tech Companion 1: Philosophers and Kings puts power in your hands.

Low-Tech Companion 1: Philosophers and Kings is a supplement to GURPS Low-Tech. The information on the world of the mind would be useful in any historical setting featuring rulers, priests, or philosophers.

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.
