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.

It looks, well, cute.

A supers RPG influenced by GURPS/HERO for kids: is that even conceivable?

But the pdf sample of the Fantasy version I looked at was a fun read.

I have both the Supers game (BASH!) and the fantasy game (BASH! Fantasy).

The game is definitely fun and full of flavor. The system is easy: 2d6 x Stat. The three stats are Brawn, Agility and Smarts (if I remember correctly). The stats are rated from 1 to 5. In the supers game 1 is average and 5 is Hulk level. In the Fantasy game, the scale is 1 is average and 5 is Giant class (or something similar).

There is not much granularity but the game certainly screams fun!

BASHMan occassionally posts to the RPG.Net forums. He was working on a BASH!Space game but that project seems shelved. I think he is doing some CnC work now.

Thanks for the link, I hadn't heard of it.  Based on the free version of the fantasy game, it looks decent.  Interesting to have values bottom out at average.

Not so!  I have done freelance work for Castles and Crusades, however, I have always been dedicated to Basic Action Games' projects.  BASH! Sci-Fi is DONE being written.  It is in the layout/art director, David Jarvis', hands, and should be ready for release soon!  

If people were impressed with BASH! Fantasy, Sci-Fi will blow your mind.

I have finally gotten around to posting at this forum, and must say I am impressed by it, and intend to be around more in the future!
