Title: Lesser Shades of Evil
Post by: ravencross on October 06, 2007, 10:07:29 AM
Hi there,

Yup, the beast is finally out there now, and seeing as I'm new to this site, I wanted you guys to share in my girlish glee... :D  
Lesser Shades of Evil, a 456 page heavyweight (it can be used as a war mace with little trouble) is illustrated by Elmore, McKenna and Nordstrand and it features a detailed setting, developed characters and the Ascent system, a dice pool mechanic which converts large packets of D6s into smaller packets of D10s or, in some cases, D20s.
You can see some downloads here:
http://www.eos-press.com/downloads.html

Reviews are already out on //www.rpg.net, and I was hoping some people here might want to review it as well.

Finally, for those of you who were patient enough to read this post down to here, I have two parting gifts for you. The first is a Norwegian's portrayal of the first hundred settlers to the city of Avonmyth and following this one, a very rough draft of the first supplement's cover.  

Your comments and/or questions are welcome!

And, um, care to give any clue as to what the fuck the game is actually about?

Ain't got no problem with that...

LSoE is a post-post-post (yeah, three in a row) apocalyptic game, taking place on a reborn and meticulously engineered Earth. Players have a slew of characters to play, varying in power level from wide-eyed mortals to mighty Angelions, the immortal caretakers of this new world. There's also a couple of cool reviews on RPG.net and one on a fistfullofcomics.
If you want to know a bit more, you can follow my sig and look over the stuff there, or go to the products page and have a more detailed description.

Hope this fucking helps! ;)

Thanks RPGpundit, as near as a few days ago I didn't even know this community even existed!

And if anyone here has questions about LSoE (or if you want to buy a few thousand copies), just let me know!

I took a look at the previews and it looks pretty interesting. Rather unique too as far as dice mechanics go.

I bought it a couple months back and I'm very happy I did. Lots of good background info, but not too much to make a GM feel hemmed in. The stuff on the EOS site pretty much gives you a good idea as to what to expect. Looking forward to the next book!:D
