[QUOTE="Abstruse, post: 8862662, member: 6669048"] Here's the introduction from press kit I got from Fragging Unicorn Games about Subversion: Ten Second Pitch: You are an envoy, using technology, magic, and direct action to serve your community in the cyberpunk fantasy world of Neo Babylon. What is Subversion? In the Subversion tabletop roleplaying game, you and your friends play as envoys, representatives of your communities taking direct action to serve and save the people around you. But there's a catch. Both your character, and the community they are a part of, have values that are important to them. Trying to subvert the oppressive world around you while also holding true to the values you and your community care about, isn't an easy task. Features [LIST] [*]Immersive characters with your own unique fantasy lineage, values, impulses, backgrounds, and goals. [*]A flexible, d6-based, dice-pool game system that allows multiple and creative solutions to almost every encounter. The better you are at a skill, the more dice you roll, but you'll only keep the highest three, meaning more skilled characters have higher chances of critical hits and less chances of critical failures. [*]A player-created community that acts as another character, helping the PCs and needing their help. [*]A robust setting in a world much like our own, but with wonderous creatures, magical abilities, and where the ancient Babylonian Empire was the first to wield arcane powers to concquer all around them. 2,500 years later, Neo Babylon is an urban megasprawl and the conomic and cultural capitol of the world. [*]Varieties of balanced character and advancement options means characters won't ever get too powerful for the setting, even as the characters get better and more unique. [*]Themes of community, direct action, revolution, hauntings, encroaching technology, relationships, staying true to ideals, speaking truth to power, and hope for the future. [/LIST] The Kickstarter is launching in February, so I'll bet we'll start to get more information out after the new year. [/QUOTE]
