It's all out of print. You either need to download PDF copies of the materials from a source like RPGNow or score the old printed stuff from a gaming store or Ebay.

I see, so Birthright is like a political game of D&D.

I'm actually in a birthright campaign right now. The bloodline abilites are cool.

A 1st level fighter that can heal 2D6 every day is just plain cool.

It's a great setting, very fun.

Birthright is a great campaign setting! It's really political... it's kind of like Warcraft (the game) meet Highlander (the original movie, not the crappy sequal or the even crappier series).

If you go to Birthright.net (the link The Grinning Pint pointed out), they have an updated 3.0/3.5 campaign setting, for free, available in PDF. It's great, I think it's over 200 pages long. They've got everything you need to start a Birthright campaign. I'm running one now, and I lifted the politics/warfare system for another campaign.

I'f you've ever wanted to run a strategy D&D game, Birthright is the system to use.
