I almost wonder if this was semi-on purpose. Not out of malice, but just because Free League has won so many in the past few years. Still, The One Ring not being nominated for anything but interior art is a travesty.

All that said, I'd love to see a thorough breakdown of the differences between Vigil and Reckoning by someone who knows both (and doesn't have an axe to grind either way).

You may be right. I backed the Kickstarter, seems like ages ago (although I'm sure it wasn't actually that long). I thought I got the PDF last year and the hardback is coming out this year. It's absolutely confusing for people not in the know. I've had conversations with people where I've...

I prefer the street level too, or at the very most minor powers like you see in Vigil's Conspiracies, but then I always preferred Vigil to Reckoning. My question is more the niche the two games now occupy.

Other than a couple of (to me) neat sounding mechanics, I'm just really struggling to see what sets this apart from Hunter: the Vigil (which just had it's second edition come out last year). Yes, Vigil has Compacts and Conspiracies, but the default level is the Cell, and Hunter too is focused on...

Good predictions. They also liked this tweet, might mean 2d20 is in the works?

Accidental double post.

Wow. The One Ring was a $2M Kickstarter and Free League has had a total of $7.8M, so TOR was over 25% of their total earned from 25 projects. Though even without it they would still have been #2.

You're not alone. I'm backing at the Special Edition level but added a regular copy because I just couldn't chose between them. I'm normally not someone who goes all out on RPG Kickstarters but this one has one my heart.

Do it! Help us get Tom Bombadil!

That makes sense.

So then why would one cut out the middle part? It's not a flurry of activity but it's still significant.

Interesting that it looks like past Free League Kickstarters have seen a pretty steady rise after the initial flurry to around twice the first day's take (via Kicktraq). There's definitely an upswing at the end, but that slow and steady isn't negligible.

I think you could back without a reward at 1,998 SEK and then get it in the Pledge Manager. You also might be able to get just the book in a late pledge with the Pledge Manger.

What's the norm for pre release subs?

I think they may even have confirmed Core and starter will be in it in the Effekt podcast interview. They did say it's their largest yet. Regardless, I'm getting everything.

I'm going to spend more money on this than I ever have on any Kickstarter. Getting everything, don't care how much it costs.

There's also going to be black and white art by Alvaro Tapia that kind of evoke the best of Agnus McBride's MERP art to me (from the little we've seen).

Alas it seems to be a different one than what he created for Cubicle 7.

All we know (and likely all we'll ever know) is that the art and text of the Cubicle 7 TOR 2E belonged to Cubicle 7, while the rules belonged to Sophisticated Games. SG partnered with Free League after the C7 deal broke down. It's possible FL tried to buy the art from C7 and a deal couldn't be...
