So, I heard some RoLW stuff are available for DnD. Is it true? If so, anyone has some links? I remember there was a city designed, taken from that anime...
Furthermore, I consider that  This is Why We Don\'t Like You thread should be closed

Ahh, I don't think that there is anything official for any version of D&D based on Record of Lodoss War because Ryo Mizuno originally made the story out of his own home B/X D&D campaign.

I remember reading there's a Japanese language standalone game.  Wikipedia calls it Record of Lodoss War Companion.

A long time ago there was a fairly in-depth Fuzion conversion.  This was many years ago when Atomik Magick was a free supplement.

Most of the RoLW stuff comes from the Japanese Sword World RPG.  You can find a translation project for it here: http://swordworld.wikia.com/wiki/Sword_World_Wiki

I don't know about anything DnD specific, save for the fact that it basically is DnD.  It would be pretty neat to see some of it already converted to a Western system though.

Edit:  On a second look, this is a new setting for that system which doesn't seem to be immediately tied to the Lodoss setting.  Haha disregard.
I don\'t want to play with you.

Too bad because that is one setting I would love to play in.  I really liked the anime series. It's one of the few I watched.

You might want to check out Legend of Crystania, Legend of Crystania: The Chaos Ring, and Rune Soldier. They are all set in the same world and Ryo Mizuno was writer and creative consultant on each one (if memory serves).

It might be possible to find older editions of Sword World, which do use that setting.  But the translation issue will pose a barrier no matter the circumstances.

For those of you who want to take a look at the FUZION version, here's the link:
RoLW Fuzion

Try the zip.file download, i had problems with the direct pdf one.
I liked the Fuzion Version and it has some nice world and background information.

I will keep an eye out for that stuff, thanks.
