I picked up the original Trudvang Chronicles about a year ago, mostly due to the artwork and the overall setting/fluff.
Trudvang Chronicles is an award-winning fantasy roleplaying game based on the mysterious and dark Nordic and Celtic sagas and myths. Enter a world of enchanted forests, trolls, dragons, spirits of nature, heroes and adventures. Trudvang is both grim and dark, epic and yet down to earth, with a melancholic tone of an ancient age when nature was a living creature and magic was wild and strong. Above all, Trudvang is a saga...
The system isn't what I would call, complicated, but it is more crunchy that some other systems, like D&D. The resolution mechanics are a variation of the percentile system that Chaosium uses like in older editions of CoC and their generic Basic Role-Play.

Riotminds, the company behind Trudvang and LexOccultum, did a Kickstarter for an expansion of the game, Stormlands, last year and I jumped in. My order arrived recently so I thought I would post some of the pics of the material.
The first complete regional sourcebook for the world of Trudvang: Stormlands. Follow the path of the great storm maidens, the fearsome berserkers of the north, and the battle between men and beast. This is an extensive book covering one of the most wild and savage parts of Trudvang.

That art is neato. I can't figure out whether it's more Dark Crystal-ish or more like the Gnomes coffee table books that I used to see when I was younger.
Really interesting.
