I'm kinda shocked I have the 7th Sea core rulebook to read before I have the GM stuff for Delta Green.

The Burning Wheel Codex showed up today, and the physical quality is really good, pretty much exactly the same as Gold. I can't wait to dig into it and see how the material was revised.

Echophonic posted:Nice, I'm looking forward to that. Haven't gotten a shipping notification or anything, though. The only notification I got was a mysterious e-mail from stamps.com that just said "Andrew Markham has sent you a package" and gave me a tracking number. I kinda thought it was Delta Green stuff until the book actually showed up. Given the way the KS updates were written, I'm not sure that wasn't intentionally vague.

signalnoise posted:I love Dreadball. Can't praise it enough. However, I have to say you might want to investigate your ability to actually play the game in your area. In my city Guild Ball is the one true sports minis game. Yep! I love Dreadball and I bought heavily into it and Xtreme, but there are maybe three people in my city that play it. Meanwhile Guild Ball nights regularly pull 15+ people.

GrandpaPants posted:Upon reflecting on my Cthulhu Wars pledge, I would say that Gods War is likely not worth it, just on the basis of cost and storage. Like, if it's close to Cthulhu Wars in terms of gameplay and mechanics, it'll be a good to great game, but actually thinking about how much money I could have spent on other games or other things in life that aren't gaming related (how vague and uncertain this statement is) just kind of upsets me in hindsight. Like I said, it probably won't be a bad game, but unless you're going to find secondary use for those miniatures, I'd probably give it a pass from a pure expense perspective. I'm kinda with you. I looked over the rules and it seems like a really cool game, and the models are nice, and Glorantha is the best setting, but it just doesn't fit my lifestyle anymore.

glitchkrieg posted:I backed this as I was just starting to get back into the hobby and I'd always wanted to play Paranoia. What's so terrible about it? It's a lesser Paranoia than any of the other ones that came before it, even the super lovely one that everyone involved with the license disowns. It's super bad looking on its own merits, too. I mean, I know Paranoia is supposed to be a comedy game, but it always had a solid if uninspiring ruleset.

SJGames is launching a kickstarter tomorrow for a GURPS Dungeon Fantasy boxed set. http://www.enworld.org/forum/content.php?3731-GURPS-Turns-30-Starts-Kicking-Down-Doors-to-Celebrate-With-Dungeon-Fantasy-RPG#.V8cxWPkrJhE quote:The Dungeon Fantasy RPG will take things a step further. It will be a standalone game, a box containing everything needed to play: cardboard figures, battle maps, dice, and five full-color rulebooks illustrated with beautiful original art. The books will include all the parts of the GURPS Basic Set and GURPS Magic necessary for hack ‘n’ slash – and vital content from the GURPS Dungeon Fantasy PDFs – but streamlined. Between this and the two hardcovers, this is the biggest year for GURPS releases in, god, at least the 2010s. long-ass nips Diane fucked around with this message at 20:59 on Aug 31, 2016 |

Helical Nightmares posted:Oh? Interesting. Curious to see the sales numbers and how this plays out. Dungeon Fantasy is already a streamlined version of the larger GURPS system, so if it's streamlined and revised from that base it should be a quick playing game while still very much being a GURPS game. Personally, I don't think I'd want it to be too much lighter, since there are already plenty of those kinds of games.

dwarf74 posted:Oh, they added a fake PDF only tier, for effectively $36. Cool. That's a way better idea than a Pyramid sub. It's kind of baffling that they didn't think people would want PDFs of the updated/revised material that's making up the box set. alg posted:Are these stretch goals a joke I think after the Ogre kickstarter they've made it a core goal to never ever lose money on shipping again.

Cthulhu Dreams posted:Why don't they just charge actuals for shipping in the pledge manager? I never understand people who don't do this. I'm not an expert on shipping costs or anything but given that this is supposed to ship in may of next year, there's a large risk of shipping costs increasing between now and then, especially internationally.

Zark the Damned posted:In better minis news, Stonehaven are back at it: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/2087444096/stonehavens-giants Nice. I skipped out on the halflings and half-orcs, but I was in on the three before that, and none of them were bad. I'll probably grab a couple of giants, the whole set gets a bit pricy.

mike12345 posted:Anyone supporting the GURPS Dungeon Fantasy Kickstarter? How much of an update is it? I'm probably not going to chip in, the shipping fees of 30 bucks seem a bit brutal. Maybe ok for the weight, still. Didn't see a pdf-only option. It's not a real update to the core GURPS rules, but they're redesigning and rebalancing all the spells in the game, and changing up some of the class templates. You can back for 36 bucks and get all the PDFs, they're an add-on instead of a pledge level for some reason.

Kwyndig posted:Why the hell would you do that? No, seriously, why would start a project and put your funding goal at even one penny less than your actual budget for completion? You can't count on exceeding your goal, and usually exceeding your goal also means your costs are going to go up (either from stretch goals or just having to produce more units), so why would you ever ask for less money than you need when you don't have any way to make up the difference. It's just nonsense and madness, and I should know, being well versed in nonsense and extremely mad. Because when you do what you said people call it boring and lame, like the Dungeon Fantasy kickstarter.

atholbrose posted:Huh. The $1 tier on the Swords & Wizardry 3d printing is a pay-what-you-want for the PDF version. It'll also be PWYW after the kickstarter is over, just like the older printing is now, if you don't even want to bother with the whole kickstarter process.

Ash Law has finally pulled the plug on The Reliquary for 13th Age after 4.5 years. There's a really long backer-only post explaining the situation but it's the exact same story as every failed kickstarter and you already know what happened, even if you've never heard of this project before.

neaden posted:This looks good but oddly expensive. I'm not sure if I'll ever have time to do the big interlocking campaign either. Also why is it the Yellow King instead of The King In Yellow? There is no Yellow King. Someone asked this in the KS comments but it's something about distinguishing it from other products based on the same material.

malkav11 posted:You know, I'm not one of those people who typically complains about Kickstarter being used by established publishers, but Munchkin is literally the money hose that keeps Steve Jackson in business. There is zero reason it needs to be Kickstarted. SJ Games isn't making it, they licensed Munchkin out to IDW, who I assume are kickstarting it to try to put a dent in the costs of licensing both that and ninja turtles before sending it to retail.

Going to something not completely terrible, I think it's really cool that you can get a PDF copy of Traveler for 2 bucks if you're broke and can't afford any other tiers. It's not a great version of the game but that's a really cool thing to do.
