Contents
Plunder is a supplement for RuneQuest, half of which consists of a shorthand method for generating treasure, while the other half describes 43 exotic magic items.[1]
Reception
Forrest Johnson reviewed Plunder in The Space Gamer No. 33.[1] Johnson commented that "the lack of exotic magic items has heretofore been a weak point in RuneQuest. The items have authentic Gloranthan flavor, complete with history and cult affinities. The discreet use of these items will add spice to a campaign without reducing it to Monty Haul."[1]
Oliver Macdonald reviewed Plunder for White Dwarf #25, giving it an overall rating of 5 out of 10, and stated that "All points considered Plunder is an interesting but by no means essential RuneQuest play aid, certainly not worth buying if you have a limited budget."[2]
