This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Quote from: finarvyn;929034Colonial Gothic by Rogue Games.
I like Colonial Gothic a lot for its setting fluff, but I'm not entirely sold on the system. This might improve with the upcoming CG 3E, though.

Quote from: jux;929738Exactly that! Every single one of them!
And Symbaroum.
I played Symbaroum twice now and while I enjoyed it, I'm not entirely sold. I wouldn't GM it.

Quote from: Nerzenjäger;929734The number of successes determines range, area of effect, time and duration, possible difficulty to resist, etc.
You have small tables for all of these. There's still some GM adjudication involved, but in most situations the outcome is pretty clear.

Thanks! Appreciate it!

ETA: I still wish they had a preview PDF. I like to see the quality of work (editing, style, and typography) before I buy.

I would kill for an actual release of their planned RPG FRP.

Hmmm... there's some interesting tattle at that link explaining what happened to the Bugtown game I was so excited for wayback when. Sounds like Wujick was a bit of a prick.

I never worked with Erick (except for Erick being a moderator for me on this very site), but what's mentioned in that blog absolutely doesn't match any of my long experiences with him. Nor does it match anything I've ever heard about him in public or private conversations.  I'm not saying it's not true, but I certainly never heard any story like that before.

Erick did have some flaws, including letting other priorities get in the way of what he was doing, but I'd never seen anything in my conversations with him to give me the sense he was a control freak.
