I can understand they want to avoid calling them monks, but calling them "fighter" when you already have a "warrior" class is a good example of how to create confusing terminology for your game.

It does model practice. There are rules in BRP and RuneQuest for training and research, they just didn't get into every variant of the system. HarnMaster does an even better job, and for those who really love bookkeeping, there is even an option for skill detoriation for neglecting skills.

The real problem isn't his baby face. It's the dull surprise on their faces.

They started developing a new edition before the AD&D license ran out using their Aces & Eights system as its framework. HackMaster 5e is still available and is the best rpg ever. Alas Kenzer & Co have been very slow in releasing anything other than Knights of the Dinner Table. A revised edition...

Yes, the AD&D license Kenzer & Co used to publish HackMaster was also part of this agreement.

Warhammer orcs are bri'ish hooligans. Where did you get that South African thing?

Still waiting for my book, but already read the beta and final pdf too. My biggest gripe is they don't have any guidelines for creating new monsters.

None of my relationships hindered my hobbies in a significant way. The kid though, now that's eating up time like popcorn. Can't wait till he's big enough to roll dice.

It seems Mythic Iceland 2e by Chaosium is getting close to the finish line after many years, so I nominate that.

Looks fine to me, though I was surprised by the large amount of saving through categories. One thing I haven't checked: are the saving throw categories in priority order (i.e. which one to roll against first if multiple categories would apply)?

It has been out of print and unavailable for many years - unless you were willing to pay collector's price on eBay. I'm glad it's back, because back when it was available I was a dirt poor university student and couldn't afford it. Keeping out of print products available is just as important as...

Someone seems to be salty that his games don't sell. I wonder if it's the same guy who wrote the Your RPG Is naughty word blog.

The Old-School Essentials: Advanced Fantasy and Palace of Unquiet Repose campaigns also launched, and funded already.

"We have a huge heritage of colourful and exciting settings, so let's go with a currently popular yet-another-generic-fantasy-setting."

So, crafting no longer has specializations, while lore still has, and Arcana, Nature, Occultism, Religion, Society are not lore skills... Makes so much sense.
