It doesn’t help that Mal is identified as a Brownshirt, er coat. I get that it’s not intentional and most people never make that connection—but it’s still weird to hear. Has there ever been a color + garment identifier in history that hasn’t been sinister?

Cool concept! I'm a bit worried that the author doesn't seem to have heard about stuff like Ryuutama, and in the "what are your credentials" FAQ answer is basically just talking about Pathfinder.

Yeah, that's my issue with it too.

It's a good thing for him there aren't any other really solid RPGs that mix the martial arts genre and western genre out there already.

I feel like that's something you could hack Wulin to do, and I keep hearing stuff about Feng Shui but I've never played it. :shrug:

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.

Get your hands on a beta, those PDFs were way smaller. I suspect s lot of that extra space is just more mechs, art, layout and setting material.

This, pretty much. When I was going through the beta, there were a lot of TABLES and EQUIPMENT but it wasn't anywhere near 566 pages.

The designer of Wingspan has launched a kickstarter for a cute, ultra-light game about Victorian flower language. It looks interesting, and it is reasonably affordable for Americans. For everyone else, I'm surprised such a small game would have that sort of shipping cost.

I'm honestly pretty frustrated that we were told here and on KS that it wasn't what it looked like, and how we were missing context and Noelle drew the wrong conclusion and everything was fine and then w h o o p s Amy confirmed that she'd paid herself everything that wasn't put into the first book's PDF and apparently the money was gone.

Not only is this a lovely thing to happen to a system I was really exited to play legitimately, but I'm worried that Kamigakari's campaign going off a cliff and hitting some sharp rocks on the way down is going to be something that keeps coming up whenever people try to license other Japanese games for translation.

I'd wait for that pattern to emerge before trying to predict it. We've also had stuff like Tenra Bansho Zero which was a bit late, but came out alright. I figure the same will be true for Shinobigami. Double Cross stopped because the guy doing it got sick, I believe.

You're probably right; I'm just uneasy because I remember hearing a lot of stuff about what a nightmare it was to get JTRPGs licensed around the time Double Cross came out (though that's been long enough and enough successful projects have been released that things may certainly have changed).

I just pushed Super Americana Magic Force Go! out through DriveThru, if you have Americana you should be able to download it now.

That wraps Americana. I can't really find the words to express how it feels to say that. First major project, and it basically enabled me to do and make everything I've done since. And I have y'all to thank for it in a huge way, nearly 35% of Americana funding came from this thread.

Thanks, friends.
