Welcome to RUNEHAMMER! I'm Brandish Gilhelm, and these are my various books and other creations. I've been in business as Runehammer since 2015, creating all kinds of fantasy artwork, videos, books, and tabletop gaming tidbits.
Thanks for stopping by, my fire is your fire.
INDEX CARD RPG is my best-selling, do-anything, friendly-but-deep tabletop RPG system that has been enjoyed by thousands worldwide! The latest edition combines 4 previous books into an incredible MASTER EDITION. You can also go digital and get the PDF.
Looking for any number of other Runehammer TTRPG creations? Here's a link to my PUBLISHER PAGE on DriveThruRPG. Here you can shop from my entire catalog, whether printed books or PDFs!
VIKING DEATH SQUAD is my most recent, and kinda crazy, RPG book. This game is based entirely on the classic song WAR PIGS by Black Sabbath, and it is crazy hardcore fun, with unfrozen viking immortals, homicidal cyborgs, coffins in space, and guns that shoot knives.
I have always been a writer of fantasy adventure, but this trilogy of legendary stories is my very best work. This Collector's Edition has illustrations by the amazing Jose Leite, and includes all three of the beyond-epic Mud novels.
In 2018, I published my epic fantasy trilogy, THE LEGACY OF MUD, as a set of audiobooks. My voice actor, Mason Hunter, was awesome to work with, and the books came out great.
I have the coolest fans on the planet. My Patreon page, known by all as THE SHIELD WALL, gives my readers a way to directly support ALL my projects. Starting at 1$ monthly, you get all kinds of inside previews, free releases, and over 70 episodes of my podcast: THE RPG MAINFRAME.
This whole mess started as a wacky YouTube channel all about role playing, beer, and other cool things. YouTube is still the #1 way I keep in touch with fans and friends worldwide.
Runehammer has an amazing community of creative 'lumpy heads' engaged with all aspects on the rune-iverse every day. These are custom coded forums with an easy-to-use format my readers love.
