DurdleDuck posted:Multiple goons may have been harmed in the making of this Kickstarter. I definitely worked some ungodly hours, but we've been more than 150% funded in a day (hit our goal in the first 7 hours!), so it's all worth it?? Is there any chance we'll see how the expansions actually change the base game?

Again: almost 5 years now to write a game that's classless d20 with Fate's aspects bolted on. e: although really the mechanical side of things was completed a while ago because he sent it out to backers. And the setting stuff was written by someone else ages ago. We've been waiting on Chapter 9, which is the GMing advice chapter, for over 300 days now.

Does anyone know anything about this Nove Cry game? Apparently it's a second printing because the first one wasn't available at retail, and it looks like a pretty decent 4x-ish style game.

GrandpaPants posted:It looked pretty interesting until I saw that Discovery Table and did a giant "nope." It ranges from losing crew (strictly bad) to getting VP (strictly good) on an equal distribution scale, which means that you either get hosed or get good poo poo with about equal probability. Shame, since I liked the idea of having your ship represented by crew, captain and ship itself.

Looks like now there's an official Evil Dead 2 board game. I'm guessing this one's going to do well solely because of the official Ash minis and dice bag if nothing else.

Inkwell ideas is kickstarting A new version of Hexographer. The pledge levels seem kinda weird, though; You can get Hexographer 2 for $35 as a pledge level, or go get a Hexographer license now and pledge for the upgrade. It's worth pointing out that Hexographer is currently half off at their webstore, so even if you don't want to pledge it's probably worth getting the base software at $16. http://inkwellideas.com/store/hexographer/

I can't believe I have a copy of Nocturne in my virtual hands. Congrats, Doc!That Old Tree posted:I'm sure he learned his lesson the last dozen times and will not put forward even the faintest hint of a release date, just like the last six times he definitely didn't do that. Really, the best thing he can do at this point is to just hand off the project to someone else and let them finish it up. We know it's mostly done, because the first 8 chapters went out ages ago and the setting was written by someone else. But (going by the RPGG thread) this Friday marks the one-year anniversary of Gareth promising one chapter on GMing.

Sometimes I wish I wasn't as moral as I was, so I could create games like this and sell them to morons guilt-free. I imagine the profit margin is pretty high (assuming you can actually produce the drat thing).

news regarding the Mekton KS, they've purchased their own POD setup to send out the books... next thing they're going to reveal they've built their own cloud storage solution to deliver the PDFs at this rate.

Shanna Germain confirmed over on G+ that there isn't going to be a digital version at all. Which isn't surprising, but is still stupid for a game that has "you can play with people anywhere anywhen" as a major selling point. https://plus.google.com/+ShannaGermain/posts/hveLaRgyyZb

quote:four-page character tome a player uses to record all their information That "the seventh of their seven secrets is that they have more than seven secrets" is such 90's pseudomystical Gaiman/Morrison wannabe wank I cannot, as the kids say, even. The whole "I'm a bibbity boppity that boos" thing is one of those concepts that sounds good at first, but in practice just means you're only good at one thing ever.

Mutant Manual is a "poly-system" RPG sourcebook, that will apparently have rules for Fate, Savage Worlds, Pathfinder Modern, Entropic Gaming System (whatever that is), and "Dr. Nik’s Happy Fun FUDGE". Pledge rewards include "random images from the book".
