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.

Nyooo! Not after I already budgeted my broke-ass self into oblivion! Nyooooooooo!

... Oh, it's just $10. I think I can starve for that. *puts organic endive & arugula pre-made salad back on shelf*

You know, people keep comparing non-TSR D&D to deck-building in Magic: the Gathering. But maybe it\'s more like Katamari Damacy. You keep sticking shit on your characters until they are big enough to be a star.

The artwork is spectacular and I've already spotted one Nazareth album cover.
Yeah, but who gives a fuck? You? Jibba?

Well congrats. No one else gives a shit, so your arguments are a waste of breath.

Everything about this game is spectacular. Dig in my friend.

I'm cautiously optimistic. If he's addressed the required roles in D&D (that should NOT be in an S&S game), I'd be all over this. If it's just D&D with minor tweaks, I'll skip it.

Also, more tentacles? Yawn.

(I do think Jeff is a decent guy, so I hope the game does well for him. However, I think he's about a year too late for this to be very successful).

What do you want to know?

You could try reading this thread if you've forgotten about it. There's quite a lot of information here already.

Planet Algol

Morale scores, treasure type, # appearing for monsters? Check!

Would have liked more new monsters, but I like how the classic D&D monster spread was adapted for Hyperborea.
Yeah, but who gives a fuck? You? Jibba?

Well congrats. No one else gives a shit, so your arguments are a waste of breath.

That's really cool! The game deserves it! :)

Sure looks that way so far.

Thanks for the contact info, Benoist. The author seems like a really cool guy. I'm getting him hooked up with an #rpgnet Q&A session in the next month or so.
