I've only just discovered that there was a Sláine RPG...I "think" I've found all the supplements etc. but please let me know if I've missed any...

https://boysadventurecomics.blogspot.com/2022/01/slaine-role-playing-game.html

...also I'm not enough of a Sláine artist to know who did the covers for all the supplements so if you can help me out with those credits too that's be awesome!

Thanks!
