Qin: The Warring States is a role-playing game published by Cubicle 7 in 2007.
Description
Qin: The Warring States is a wuxia role-playing game, set in China during the Warring States period.
Publication history
Qin is a thematic wuxia game originally from French publisher 7ème Cercle, who also published the core rulebook, Qin: The Warring States (2006), in English. Cubicle 7 announced in late 2007 that they had licensed the Qin role-playing game line and would publish English translations as their fourth role-playing game line and their next license after Starblazer Adventures. Cubicle 7 began selling the core Qin book by 7ème right away, and over the next two years they would translate and publish English versions of the game's French supplements.
Qin was translated from the French publisher "Le Septième Cercle". The French Qin was published in 2005.
