My problem is that buying D&D products in Yugoslavia includes a lot of money saving and planning. Hero Wars are totally unavailable and much more expansive than D&D.

I have the synopsis but it details only the game mechanics. I need stuff like character creation.

I would like to run and one player=one clan PBeM based in Dragon Pass.

  Will each player control a separate clan? If so, you need to invent some game   mechanics; if not, you can run a single clan with the players as ring members   using HW or Runequest or any other tabletop rules system. (The only difficult   part is simulating crop production and livestock populations, though I'm sure   you could invent a reasonable system yourself.)

  At www.glorantha.com there is a rules summary:

  Hero Wars might be a good rules system to build upon if you decide to create   a clan vs clan game. Off the top of my head, I'd set up a clan like this:

  Wealthy 17 (Big Herd of Cattle 1W, Grow Grain 18)   Fyrd 1W (Charge 3W, Maneuver 1W, Skirmish 2W, Defend Tula 5W)   Warband 5W (Cattle Raid 3W, Patrol 19)   Temple to Ernalda 3W (Preserve 3W, Bless Children 4W)   ...

  Well, you get the idea.

  You can order Hero Wars rulebooks by mail, BTW (assuming you get a decent exchange   rate, of course, which may be the problem in the first place.)
