I understand that it can be easy to feel skeptical about generative AI, especially when it's compared to trends like NFTs or blockchain, which were often associated with hype. However, I think it’s worth considering some of the real, tangible impacts that generative AI is already having in...
Me too! I'm actually OK with this being a super crunchy, weirdly complicated game. I actually play in a Battletech: Time of War game atm and been having a blast with it! I just like mecha games!
Public playtest though! The dice system looks pretty cool IMO. 3 dice pool, buffs/debuffs change the size of the dice on different 'sides' of the pool. Something that would be wonky or complicated in person but on VTT with up/down arrows works really well.
If people are interested in the Fantasy Knights + Sci-Fi + Mecha combo, the game Maharlika does this too! You have magic-tech mecha made of magic wood powered by technology + a spirit.
Fantasy mecha has a couple of options existing, but not too many. Only ones I can think of are Aether Knight...
Do the episodes use their Crucible system? Is there any non-video format writeup, review, or something about the system? I'm a lot more excited about a new game system + adventure than another 5e adventure.

What is AWE? I also don't think there's a dozen or so FITD mecha games--I can only think of Beam Saber and Case & Soul. Girls by Midnight may kinda count as it has a 'Sea of Stars' or something like that variant in the main book for mecha. --I'd love to hear about others!
Super Robots +...
