Not really, they just keep popping up to shill their bad games. The rest of the time they just play audience participant over in Let's Play. Edit: Although their last game was especially bad. Kwyndig fucked around with this message at 00:52 on Apr 8, 2016 |

This is the only thread shilling products is allowed in Trad Games, but people really need to put in more effort than this guy has been doing.

I don't see why shilling shouldn't be allowed, otherwise you wind up with poo poo like how on RPGnet shilling of your own Kickstarters was frowned upon so people would just get a friend of theirs to post something like "hey guys here's a project I found by RPGnet's very own [INSERT NAME HERE]" The issue isn't that this dude is shilling, it's that shilling is literally all he does in this thread and the things he's shilling suck. Compare this to, say, gnome or Bucnasti or someone like that.

Evil Mastermind posted:Wait, which was was this again? Ahh I see. Those guys. Shoulda checked the kickstarter profile. I guess this is a little less lovely at least, so progress perhaps. On topic I think that shilling is okay, there's some great stuff that people have made that can use more exposure, but it certainly has more of an impact for me when it doesn't feel like it's being yelled out of the window of a passing car.

El Estrago Bonito posted:You might actually just want Trail of Cthulhu or Fear Itself for this. I've considered buying Fear Itself multiple times, but I think I'd want to bring Kult mythology into this in some way. I really like the workings of the whole greater secret in Kult. We'll see when they finish translating it whether it holds together, but I'll hold off on Fear Itself until I've seen the final copy of Kult.

Been awhile since I read up on Kult. What was its "hook" that set it apart from the many lesser 90s gnostic-horror games?

HitTheTargets posted:Been awhile since I read up on Kult. What was its "hook" that set it apart from the many lesser 90s gnostic-horror games? That's a real good question. I read Kult later...in the 2000s about. Probably the "gently caress it we are the Satanic Panic" attitude and the Metropolis/Kabalah Angels metaplot. Btw I highly, highly recommend this fan made Kult sourcebook for Gaia. http://www.mockman.com/Gaia-Sourcebook.pdf The author took the idea of Gaia from Legions of Darkness and turned it into multiple terrifying biomes of nature. Great source material for any horror game, Cthulhu, Changeling the Lost or even weird planets for a space horror game.

I did a search but I couldn't find anything about this. There's an expansion for Fragged Empire right now. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/wadedyer/fragged-empire-rpg-protagonist-archive-and-miniatu Has anyone played this? It seems to have rules for grid-based combat, which I'm down with.

In case anyone is interested, the Rum and Bones: Second Tide KS starts at 3PM EST. (The link will redirect at that time.) I guess they revamped the entire system because the first version of the game was pretty bad. Apparently, the MOBA/Tower Defense system didn't work too well in a boardgame format. People are saying they like the changes, though not having played myself, I can't comment. The original game contents are being updated for this new version, so anyone with the original won't have a useless game. Basing this from past CMON games, the new rules should be available online for free at some point (likely during the KS.) EDIT: And it funded in seconds. The Season 1 Upgrade Kit is $15, but there is not way to add it short of pledging the full amount to Season 2. Going to bring that up in the comments section. berzerkmonkey fucked around with this message at 20:10 on Apr 11, 2016 |

I'll be honest; if there was a $5 "just one die" level I'd probably back it. I'm not going to buy the whole game just for the dice, though.

They're also D6 based fight-em-ups with board control elements. Not identical but same genre.

Power Player posted:I did a search but I couldn't find anything about this. There's an expansion for Fragged Empire right now. I've actually been looking at Fragged Empire (didn't even know about the new KS), and it looks pretty neat. I like the base idea that all the available races were custom-designed by humans and Evil Alien Race centuries ago, then the humans got wiped out and the Evil Alien Race took off, leaving all these custom races behind in the leftovers of human civilization. Now it's 100 years later, and the races are just getting their poo poo together to the point where interplanetary travel is possible. One thing I will say: this is probably the clearest RPG I've ever read. There's a lot of page referencing (Here's the section on X. It's related to A (page this), B (page that), and C (page etc)), and very unambiguous full-page rules flowcharts.  Looks like you can do poo poo like get into commodities trading on the side, mod up your weapons, and get little combat drone sidekicks, too. I'm just going off the free preview, though.
