Granted, Lord of Ultima is way outside the canon of the Ultima series, and its game world doesn’t seem to have all that much to do with the Britannia that Ultima fans know and love (a few cities bear classic Britannian names, but that’s about it).

Even so, reviews of it have generally been positive, and its fan base seems to be growing. Sergorn Dragon just alerted me to the existence of a fan-run Lord of Ultima forum. As yet, it’s not heavily trafficked, though it’s certainly doing better than…er…the Sword & Shield (cough).

So if, good reader, you are playing LoU at all, maybe give this one a look.
