dwarf74 posted:Oh wow, I just checked in on one I considered backing, and again I'm glad I didn't. City-State of the Invincible Overlord. It's not quite Skarka level, but it's another one where people are saying, "Look, if it's in layout, send us what you have" and the creators are saying nothing. Seems like the lesson is don't pledge a kickstarter based on the strength of a name from thirty years ago. I wonder if there's a current kickstarter I can apply this reasoning to. Oh! Oh...

Henker posted:The dude being an actual dragon makes the most sense imo. I wonder what his reasoning is for not having a copy of the game until the $500 tier. He wants only the hidden elites to buy his game so he can start secretly tracking them using their kickstarter data. The joke’s on him though why would they want to play a realistic simulation of the life they’re already living?

Liquid Communism posted:It's an even lighter post-apoc game than PBTA, with a mechanical set that sums to 'roll 2d6, 5+ succeeds' +/- 1d6 if you have advantage or disadvantage based on your character traits. A 5 or 6 on any one dice, I assume? Not, the standard roll difficulty is success 5/6 of the time.

This looks much better than the original. Except are the bridges still trapped? That’s important. These guys need to remake Dark Tower or the Omega Virus.

Lord_Hambrose posted:Just redo Far West as a Lasers and Feelings hack at this point. There are already two words in the title and everything. Use far if you are doing Wuxia stuff. Use west if you are doing Wild West stuff. If you roll your number exactly you’ve got far west, you succeed but it takes ten times longer than it should.

Nemesis Of Moles posted:We joked about an absurdly high stretch goal being "Two pages of rules" at one point, but decided it'd be better to retain the purity of it on the front. The amount of extra poo poo we're putting in the envelopes at this point is frankly getting absurd and I'm really excited for when people get their copies and find all this stuff we've got planned. We might reveal some of it in updates in the last 24hrs, maybe. Just make the second page an identical copy of the first page.
