Technically there is no generalist wizard, but all wizards are still generalists. I get wanting the idea of a 'generalist,' but really, nonr of the specializations have any drawbacks whatsoever, so they are nothing like the specializations of the past. You're not choosing to be good at...

OLD/NOW/NEW for some steampunky goodness And NOW/NEW for Superheroes (maybe a little OLD, if someone wanted a super magician type).

Morrus: You should change the product tagline to: What's O.L.D. is N.O.W. N.E.W. or What was O.L.D. is N.E.W, N.O.W. or some variation. ;)

Upon reflection, I don't want an answer. Let's not taint the last week, by saying we might get the stretch goal anyway. That's just silly. I'll ask again if we don't meet the goal. Here's hoping we do and the point is moot!:cool:

I think the countdown mechanic will be great for some of these things (fires, riots, quakes and disasters)!

As mentioned in the other thread: ki/minor superpowers/bionics. Alternative/addition to Luck, that is more useful when the odds are stacked against you. Action heroes are always doing the impossible. I love your list, btw. Immediately brought G.I. Joe to mind. That sounds like fun on a bun!

If we don't meet the N.O.W. goal (it's pretty far away right now, with little time left), is there a chance, once the brand is settled, of it getting it's own kickstarter? I'd hate to see all the good ideas go to waste.

Agreed. Full blown supers would probably need it's own book! Sounds like you guys have some good ideas. I need to check how close we are to the goal. ;)

Then I suggest a section or a series of sidebars in each book with some examples of how to do exactly that and what you think is appropriate for some common genres. Just to get people's juices flowing. I also think Sniperfox47's idea for super-powers (and/or chi powers, action star powers...

Why is it that if you put the word "high" in front of Elf, I hear "superior," but when you put it in front of Goblin, I hear "stoned?" :p Cool stuff. Love me some gobbos.

It sounds cool. mike: you might consider some low level mystic/magic stuff too, so we can recreate modern shows like Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Desden, etc. For races you could include all the suggestions above and possibly a few aliens, demons, vampires, etc. with suggestions for suitable...

I don't know. I thought the trait stuff sounded pretty easy to use, though I only read once and I haven't played. So, take it with a grain of salt. Grumpy is easy: "I don't want to deal with these guys, because I'm grumpy, I'll make a check to hide and add my Grumpy trait." "If I don't kill...

Great stuff Morrus. I think the books are going to be pretty! I upgraded my pledge so I can get soft cover of O.L.D. I'm excited about it!

It's my fault. I totally mis-read it as 200 per advance. Silly.

Cool stuff Morrus. Looks simple and useful. I like the different progression charts. Off the top of my head, I wonder if Attributes shouldn't be more expensive in relation to skills, but I have no data to back it up, just a feeling.
