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.

Oh my! THAT peaks my interest! I'm quite a fan of those comics. I'll start saving my pennies right now.

Quote from: TristramEvans;808073No, that was my bad. For some reason I was under the impression RQ6 was published by Mongoose. Turns out that was an earlier edition.



It does indeed, I'll probably be grabbing it next paycheque.

Of course, if it includes any stuff on Drustan/Tristan/Tristram and Yseult, that would be a dealclincher for me , for obvious reasons.

Deal clinched. It does.

Quote from: Rincewind1;808053Celtic cattle raids and Dirty Warriors Fighting Dirty Wars do sound up my alley.
Mythic Britain is the game for you, then. :)  RQ6 can easily do King of Dragon Pass: The Tabletop RPG.

Yes, Sean Connery\'s thumb does indeed do megadamage. - Spinachcat

Isuldur is a badass because he stopped Sauron with a broken sword, but Iluvatar is the badass because he stopped Sauron with a hobbit. -Malleus Arianorum

"Tangency Edition" D&D would have no classes or races, but 17 genders to choose from. -TristramEvans

How much of the 360 pages is setting vs. adventures?  Regardless, as soon as it comes out in print I am going to get this, as well.

70% setting, 30% scenarios. And the boom is in our warehouse this week.

I've seen the PDF and it is amazing. But then I've wanted to run a Dark Ages scenario since MRQII came out. :)

Quote from: Loz;808072The Taskan Empire (+ scenario)
RuneQuest: Classic Fantasy
Adventures in Glorantha
Luther Arkwright: Roleplaying Across the Parallels

Is AiG going to focus on the Second, or the Third Age?

And I am oddly curious about Classic Fantasy.

It's another S&S mini-campaign set in The Realm, location of The Book of Quests mini-campaign.

Books of Quests is good, I'm converting it to Brythunia now for use in RuneQuest 6 Conan.

I am so sold.
My name is Ramón Nogueras. Running now Vampire: the Masquerade (Giovanni Chronicles IV for just 3 players), and itching to resume my Call of Cthulhu campaign (The Sense of the Sleight-of-Hand Man).

I'm reading this guy's book at the moment. The book and accompanying TV series are good background/inspiration

Also bought Mythic Britain from Leisure Games. Well written and decent artwork. Good production (only found one typo so far!)
