Title: Thoughts on Amazing Adventures 2nd printing?
Post by: RunningLaser on January 24, 2016, 12:12:31 PM
Just ordered some stuff for the second printing of this game and was looking for people's thoughts on it.   The idea of running a pulpy dungeon crawl, archaeologist descending into a long forgotten tomb with a S&W .44 in hand ejector is very appealing :)

I got the Kickstarter and its C&C with guns, but I knew that going in. The classes are good - nothing amazing - but there is enough meat in the core book to run a modern era  dungeon campaign.

I am hoping to run a couple sessions this year.

I've played a few sessions and I like the game, but I'm also a big C&C fan so that makes sense. I agree that running an Indiana Jones sort of adventure is pretty cool, and I particularly like to mix some Robert E Howard mythos stuff in with it.

I bought A&A and Sine Nomine's Silent Legions to combine the two. I prefer darker stuff than pulp, but the combo looked like Action Horror which I am hoping will work at the table.

Shotguns & Dragons. I'm cool with that.

I should also point out that the Amazing Adventures Companion book is really cool.

Well, my AA order just came in.  Got the new 2nd printing hardback, the manual of monsters and the companion :)  Lots of reading in my future.
