Re: Are books strictly for kickstarter backers?

I got my hardback & softcover copies (from the Kickstarter) about a week ago. If hard copies are going to go on sale I imagine it ought to be pretty soon.

Re: I would like to buy this game in book and not PDF..

The last info I had, a December 24th update to Kickstarter backers, is that the books are at the printers now and will be shipping to the Kickstarter backers soon, possibly by the end of January or early February. The hardback copies are exclusive to the Kickstarter, but I believe that paperback cop...

Re: Fillable PDF Character Sheet

Yes, you can add a picture to the portrait area but there is a catch. If you have Acrobat (not just the reader): you simply click on the portrait field and it will allow you to import an image. If you have Acrobat Reader you can still import an image but that image can only be a PDF file. So if you ...

Re: RPG Conversions

Wow, talk about going for opposite ends of the spectrum! I have been a hero system player for decades, but I haven't had the courage to attempt this conversion. You're going from the upper end of complexity to just about the other extreme. I wish you luck and I'll be following this thread.

Re: About Weapon arsenal and how to use it.

Ezra Scarlet's armor and weapon are manifestations of her magic. Depending on the suite of abilities she plans to use her armor and sword change their appearance. In a sense it is a series of Transformations, but she has so many forms that it'd be far to costly to buy a dozen, or so, Transforms. Fra...

Re: About Weapon arsenal and how to use it.

I believe you understand it correctly. I would buy the sword and the armor as two different Gears. It is legal to have multiple instances of the same Ability. Buying Walking Arsenal allows you to change the Perks and Flaws associated with the Ability at will. This could be costly though. For instanc...

Re: Shadowman stats

Yeah, I think this might be something that needs to be in an errata. I have been looking it over for about 15 minutes and I can't see how the DX is any higher than 7, nor the attack roll higher than 2. Perhaps Clay will notice this thread and give us a bit of enlightenment. I don't think Piloting is...

Re: New to OVA, in need of some clarification on Attacks and

how will something like, Passion (archery) have an affect on the characters attack dice and or damage multiplier? In my opinion this would either add to the attack dice or the DX, one or the other. It is up to you which you think is more appropriate. Currently I have a player who's character is a h...

Re: High School?

Here is an old fashion hand drawn map of a fictional Anime High School that might work well. Especially if you don't want to have to play around with Sketchup. http://rpg2030.blogspot.com/2013/01/school-map.html

Re: High School?

Actually that website has three different versions of generic Japanese High Schools.

15 years ago this would have been easy to find on the internet. Nowadays with all the terrorist groups and individual wannabes, it is a terrible security risk to make such things easily accessible. Then I spent a few minutes doing some creative googling and found this. http://studiomugenjohncel.word...
