Wilderness Dressing: Ocean Voyages (P1) Remastered by Brian Gregory is a role playing game supplement published by Raging Swan Press for use with the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game. As such, it is covered by the Open Game License and some parts are considered to be Open Game Content as a result.
The supplement is available as a 13-page PDF from DriveThruRPG for $3.75 but was purchased at a reduced price as part of a special bundle. Two pages are the front and rear covers, two are ads, one the front matter and Contents and one is the Open Game License. The PDF comes in two versions, one designed for print and high-end devices, the other for mobile and low-end devices.
The supplement starts with a brief paragraph on ocean voyages.
Shipboard Events is a d100 list of random events to happen.
Minor Encounters is a d100 list with 50 results of minor events to happen on the voyage.
Omens is a d100 list with 50 omens, each of which is stated to be either good or bad.
Random Ocean Encounters is a d12 list of random encounters.
Wilderness Dressing: Ocean Voyages (P1) Remastered in Review
The PDF is well bookmarked with major and minor sections linked. The Contents only covers the major sections, but is hyperlinked. Navigation is good. The text maintains a two-column format and appeared to be free of errors. There are two full page black and white illustrations. Presentation is okay.
This is another in the remastered line of Wilderness Encounters. This version is missing the Shipboard Features from the original supplement – which was called Sea Voyages, as a matter of confusion – which had Pathfinder details on how different parts of the ship would affect the mechanics. This primarily Pathfinder section being missing, and the fact that there are minimal Pathfinder stats for the other tables, added as footnotes, makes the supplement more system neutral, though the Random Ocean Encounters table does have Pathfinder references; again, this should not be used as a d12 table, as dolphins and kraken have the same chance of being encountered. The supplement has less than the original, so those who already own that, or the compilation, will not be served by this version.
