A couple of days left of Legacy: Life Among the Ruins. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1549920133/legacy-life-among-the-ruins-2nd-edition?ref=user_menu It seems like real fun system for those that like generational games and fallout. The system also has four other settings that are based on: -Primal Pathways: Being primordial gods and raising up a lifeforms -Generation Ship: Taking care of a ship on its 1000 year voyage to your new home -Free from the Yoke: Fantasy setting where an occupying force has left the mainland and all the families attempt to grab as much power as possible in the vacuum. -Godsend: Be a god in the greek pantheon working to conclude or subvert prophecy during the end times. If you back it you can get the first edition book and get a feel for how the new edition will play.

It uses a d1000 system and is staffed with a ton of Hero System people. This thing will be unplayable as hell.

Hey, do you have a hole in your life where you're missing some sort of Club where you can be a Penguin? Have I got the game for you!

The very first thing I notice is that there's player elimination but eliminated players continue to be able to attack other players afterwards even though they can't actually win the game, which sounds like someone looked at the kingmaking problem and thought to themselves "how can I make this even more likely to cause heated arguments at the gaming table?"

Was taken from: https://www.artstation.com/artwork/orgW Specifically this image:  Something tells me they didn't get permission to use the image for their Kickstarter. Also I appreciate just how photoshopped everything looks in this image:  That books is totally real and not just awkwardly plopped onto a table with different lighting. And the box. And the miniatures. And the map.

Among the Superhero 2044 guy's other Kickstarters is this one for MONSTRA: ZOMBIE DESTROYER which, according to the description, is "a 125 page full color graphic novel printed on the highest quality glossy paper stock." For some strange reason this also didn't fund, though at least it doesn't seem like he ripped a bunch of other peoples' art assets off for this one in the process.

How do people feel about this one? I've backed at the £10 level based on art and premise, and I'll probably stick with that if for no other reason than it'll be an interesting F&F, but it's waving a few overconfidence flags.

Looked like a cool pitch for a setting and they're not charging an arm or a leg, but the system doesn't inspire confidence. The art's pretty neat though!

Three days left for the Spellbound Kingdoms sourcebook, in case that was on your radar. It'd be really nice if it hit the 9000 stretch goal; the equipment list was legit one of the best parts of the core book, so I'd love to see what Frank has come up with for the bad guys.

The art looks fantastic and I really enjoyed reading through the demo you put out. Just a quick question for you. Are the physical extras, like the dry erase sheets and the alternate setting box set going to be available retail after the kickstarter is fulfilled? Not sure if I can shell out for them now, but I would love to pick them up later if possible.

If you're not sure whether to back Spellbound Kingdoms: Arcana in its final 48 hours, why bother paying for things when you can win them for free? I'm running a competition right now on this very forum with copies of SK:Arcana and the Spellbound corebook as prizes. There's 5 copies to give away and right now only two people have entered, so if you fart out an MS Paint drawing you currently stand to win free poo poo!

I'll also have a pledge manager pre-order period until we ship the books in January, of course, where you'll be able to buy extra addons if you like. Glad you liked the quickstart!

So hype for this.

If you pledge at the £30 tier and add and extra £30 that'll get you the core book in hardback, and the 5 extra settings in softcover. You'll also get every supplement we've unlocked in PDF. If you want, you could also pledge £15 to get an art book or an extra £15 to get dry-erase handout sheets.

Mors Rattus posted:'Wow, you sure paid a lot of money for a plastic hand that can't even jack you off.' We won't know that it can't jack you off until release, to be fair. At least it has a fun name! I can't wait to see if a single copy sells post kickstarter. Other than hand selling it at conventions it seems impossible.

Looks like the Dark Souls pledge manager is opening up again. Does that goon hack (double the XP, halve something else) make the game fun, or just less bad? I want to back it for miniatures, but I'd like to have a good game to play if I'm going to invest more into it.

I just don't see the draw but it's his money and he's wealthy enough that he's not bankrupting himself to buy a resin hand and a black mystery box.

And yes it makes the game good/fun BUUUUUUT the game is only good at 1 or 2 players and better by far at 2. Its a real slog at 3 or 4 and a cool puzzle out enemies game at 2. Let me know if you got more questions. I played it a bunch but I have a unique setup.
