Publication history

[edit]

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.[1]: 429 

Qin was translated from the French publisher "Le Septième Cercle". The French Qin was published in 2005.
