Evil Mastermind posted:Much more. The main thing to bear in mind, though, is that it's designed to be hard. As in winning is...not something that happens every time. There are optional "leveling" rules in the core set to help you improve your character, though. Looks cheap enough to get the full set in paper, though I wonder if by plastic cards they mean the same style as plastic poker cards. TacoNight posted:It is also easy to adjust the difficulty without trivializing the game by starting with exp or items. This is useful since I play with my five year old, whose strategy is "all pink dice" I have a ten year old I play with now and then so it's probably perfect.

Hex Kit is done, and it looks like it's pretty much exactly what I was looking for in a hex map utility app. It's $15 on itch.io if you want to pick it up for yourself. Edit:

PST posted:So back at PDF only and buy the hardback when it comes into stores. Or back at the book but not pdf, or treat it as the original intent behind kickstarter and you're supporting the company to make the thing they want to make. I like having the physical copy with the PDF as back up. $75.00 is a bit much to get both when I found the 1e system kind of janky and bloated. Dunno why it's a big deal to not like the game enough to contribute that much money, but congrats on being enough of a fan to swallow the cost I guess?

Alien Rope Burn posted:There's a revival of Button Men, the old Cheapass Games dice game. If you want to try it out, the non-licensed characters from the original game are available for free as print-and-play with old art with artists like Brian Snoddy and Brom. Its fairly cheap as long as you have your own set of dice (and if you're here, you probably do). This is by far my favorite game that Cheapass Games has ever done and online Button Men was pretty great back in the day so I'm glad they appear to be bringing that back too.

There are Sailor Moon buttons but getting them requires giving money to that absolute poo poo Mark MacKinnon.

Its fairly cheap as long as you have your own set of dice (and if you're here, you probably do). I think it's still a little too steep. If they were still buttons (or maybe cardboard tokens like Diskwars) and you got 48 for the price they're charging, it would be pretty neat.

JazzFlight posted:Is it fairly cheap though? 48 cards for $30 after shipping in the US with no box or $45 if you want the dice and box? Well, $20 if you're just getting the cards, but that's a fair criticism.

I remember being at Anime North, and overhearing the Guardians of Order rep snottily telling some guy that since Cheapass didn't copyright the game, they could do whatever they wanted with it. And sure, while third party supplements for games have always been a thing, dude's attitude basically killed my interest in GoO products. Not that I was missing out on much, in retrospect.

TacoNight posted:Also as a pitch, they avoid lots of annoying kickstarter behaviors: they have no ks exclusives, the price + shipping = msrp ($25), and none of the main game are hidden behind stretch goals. The downside is they only have reasonable shipping prices for US. They also got ripped into for loving EU backers with VAT and customs charges because Asmadi couldn't be bothered arranging an EU distributor and Chris Cieslik's initial response to complaints amounted to "let them eat cake". They have since sorted this, but it left a bad taste and there's no way they deserve credit for "avoiding bad behaviour".

If you're backing Talislanta for one version, what would be the best choice for system? I'm leaning toward Open d6, but I know I don't want 5e or Pathfinder.

sexpig by night posted:oh cool this slipped under my radar. Last minute back! I like how it funded $26 off from the $3,000 stretch goal that would actually have saved Ettin from doing more work. In other news, Exceed 2nd Edition With Better Art We Promise is set to fund at $86K, meeting all but one of its stretch goals, which means the $100 tier gets you all 16 base characters plus like five more on top of it (three promos, two stretch goals).

It's just a shame the $100 tier is actually a $200 After Shipping and Import Taxes tier if you live in 99% of the world.

From what I can tell this was a Indiegogo campaign under technology about 3 months ago called ETERNITY STARSHIP that was shut down. Man, when Indiegogo shuts you down, that's gotta mean something.

That thing is just a mess, like there's no feasible way to track all of that poo poo in a reasonable length of time. Also, it's yet another KS where a good chunk of the funds is going to "buy equipment" instead of contracting a company actually familiar with manufacturing the items you're pledging for. So even if it weren't word salad vomited out of a screaming skull I'd say pass.
