Dark Ages: Mage is a tabletop role-playing game supplement released by White Wolf Publishing in October 2002 for use with their game Dark Ages: Vampire , and is part of the World of Darkness series.
White Wolf resumed publishing historical settings in 2002, by first relaunching Dark Ages: Vampire as a core rulebook, and then adding supplements for other supernatural groups, all of them dependent on Dark Ages: Vampire to play, including Dark Ages: Mage, [1] which was released in October 2002 as a 240-page hardcover book, and later re-released as an e-book. [2]
This book acts as a precursor to Mage: The Ascension . It is a wildly different system from the modern counterpart, as Paradox has not quite taken hold. Because the consensus of reality is less powerful, magic itself is more bold. Rather than magic commonly being explained away by coincidence, it is often obviously the working of some powerful being.
Hunter: The Reckoning is a horror tabletop role-playing game, and the sixth main game in the World of Darkness series. It was originally released by White Wolf Publishing in November 1999 as part of their Year of the Reckoning line, and is planned to be released in an updated edition by Renegade Game Studios in Q2 2022. It is supported by a series of supplementary books which expand the game's setting and describe types of characters.

The core book does not contain the full rules for the game, and so an additional rulebook is required, such as Vampire: The Masquerade Revised Edition or Dark Ages: Vampire.
