What is "runeslayers"

RuneSlayers is a free role-playing game first published in 1998 by its authors, J.C. Connors and Christopher Lawrence. The game was originally called RuneQuest: Slayers, in order to be commercialized by Avalon Hill, the publishing house which had started it as a project in the middle 1990s. In 1997 Avalon Hill was bought by Hasbro and the publication procedure was aborted. The authors published then their game on Internet for free, by means of a PDF file and with the free title RuneSlayers (since RuneQuest was still a Hasbro property in 1998).
