With new mechanics for Hope, Decay, keeping your community up, harvesting monsters, and more, this is the dark side of fantasy.

The comparisons are so common that I have an interview with <strong>Fragging Unicorn</strong> on the subject. For the first two, their relationship to <strong>SR</strong> is superficial. In <strong><em>Sinless’</em></strong> case, this has been called an SR retroclone by some, which seems valid. If you put the <strong><em>Sinless</em></strong> logo next to the <strong>SR1e</strong> logo (the original art for which I wrote about <a href="https://www.d20radio.com/main/shadowrun-original-logo-artwork-available-at-noble-knight-games/" target="_blank">here</a>), you’re likely to note a resemblance. The creator, Courtney, said this in the comments of the <strong>KS</strong>: “If you have played <strong>Shadowrun 3rd</strong> or <strong>4th edition</strong>, you will find the game very comfortable.” So what is this RPG? It’s 200 pages and a crowdfunding campaign page that leads with this line: “<strong><em>Sinless</em></strong> is a playable cyberpunk tabletop role-playing game with magic, integrated domain play, and giant pools of d6s”. The emphasis is on the word “playable”, suggesting this is a streamlined <strong>SR</strong>, one that leans towards the earlier editions. As a fan of all things cyberpunk, I’m interested in seeing what they achieve.</li> </ul> <p style="text-align: center"><a href="https://www.kicktraq.com/projects/agonarchartist/sinless/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.kicktraq.com/projects/agonarchartist/sinless/minichart.png" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a></p> <p style="text-align: center"></p> <p style="text-align: center">[ATTACH=full]275204[/ATTACH]</p><p></p><p><a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/emielboven/the-electrum-archive-issue-02" target="_blank"><strong>The Electrum Archive - Issue 02</strong></a><strong> from Emiel Boven</strong></p><ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"><strong>END DATE</strong>: Tue, February 28 2023 6:00 AM EST.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"><strong>SYSTEM(S)</strong>: OSR inspired by <strong><em>Cairn, Mausritter,</em></strong> and <strong><em>Whitehack</em></strong></li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"><strong>PROJECT TYPE</strong>: RPG zine</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"><strong>MOST POPULAR PLEDGE</strong>: €48 + S/H for the PDF and print versions of issues 01 and 02</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"><strong>WHY SPOTLIGHT THIS CAMPAIGN?</strong> This is the second zine detailing the setting of Orn, a science-fantasy world of ancient alien shipwrecks filled with magical ink.

The gods are dead, the world is being reshaped by Decay, and hope is fleeting, though not extinguished. With new mechanics for Hope, Decay, keeping your community up, harvesting monsters, and more, this is the dark side of fantasy. Inspired by [B][I]Dark Souls, Elden Ring, Shadow of the Colossus, Annihilation[/I][/B], and the [B][I]Dark Tower[/I][/B], this is a world where the end is closer than you think, yet still unimaginably distant. If you want to wrest joy from this despair, check out the campaign page for more details.

[*][B]SYSTEM(S)[/B]: An original system [*][B]PROJECT TYPE[/B]: Core rulebook [*][B]MOST POPULAR PLEDGE[/B]: $30 + S/H for the PDF and print book [*][B]WHY SPOTLIGHT THIS CAMPAIGN?[/B] There are three projects crowdfunding now, or will shortly, that draw comparisons to [B][I]Shadowrun[/I][/B]: [URL='https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/fraggingunicorns/subversion'][B][I]Subversion[/I][/B][/URL] by [URL='https://www.drivethrurpg.com/browse/pub/4407/Fragging-Unicorns-Games?affiliate_id=814082'][B]Fragging Unicorns Games[/B][/URL], [URL='https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/vaultrpg/vault-0'][B][I]Vault[/I][/B][/URL] by [B]Team Rex Games[/B], and this project, [B][I]Sinless[/I][/B] by [URL='https://www.drivethrurpg.com/browse/pub/5597/Hack--Slash-Publishing?affiliate_id=814082'][B]Hack & Slash Publishing[/B][/URL]. The comparisons are so common that I have an interview with [B]Fragging Unicorn[/B] on the subject. For the first two, their relationship to [B]SR[/B] is superficial. In [B][I]Sinless’[/I][/B] case, this has been called an SR retroclone by some, which seems valid. If you put the [B][I]Sinless[/I][/B] logo next to the [B]SR1e[/B] logo (the original art for which I wrote about [URL='https://www.d20radio.com/main/shadowrun-original-logo-artwork-available-at-noble-knight-games/']here[/URL]), you’re likely to note a resemblance. The creator, Courtney, said this in the comments of the [B]KS[/B]: “If you have played [B]Shadowrun 3rd[/B] or [B]4th edition[/B], you will find the game very comfortable.” So what is this RPG? It’s 200 pages and a crowdfunding campaign page that leads with this line: “[B][I]Sinless[/I][/B] is a playable cyberpunk tabletop role-playing game with magic, integrated domain play, and giant pools of d6s”. The emphasis is on the word “playable”, suggesting this is a streamlined [B]SR[/B], one that leans towards the earlier editions. As a fan of all things cyberpunk, I’m interested in seeing what they achieve.
