Thank you! We're quite happy with the progress and support so far.

I'll add a bit to the FAQs. It's not necessary for everyone to be using The City of Brass, but it certainly adds to the experience. GMs will spend a lot of time in Story Builder and Entity Builder, putting together their adventures and challenges, and most of this work will never be shared...

I can't really speak for Roll20, but I can tell you a little more about The City of Brass. First a key difference, we're not a virtual tabletop. Our aim is really to enhance the in-person experience although The City of Brass will work wonderfully with groups that play over the web w/out the...

Just what is The City of Brass? It's a fully-featured app designed to manage the mechanics of pen-and-paper RPGs allowing you to focus on what matters: playing the game. It is a web-based app that supports Any Game System and works on Any Device. With The City of Brass you can: Manage all...

Yep. Noon Eastern.

There will not be different subscription rates, every subscriber gets access to all the features of The City of Brass. We have not finalized our pricing yet, that is one of the reasons for our beta, validating our cost assumptions and settling on a final price. If you opt to support us...

A subscription gets you access to everything we offer. It also allows you to view other subscribers content that they have chosen to share (either with you personally, with their friends, or with subscribers). Settings (World Builder Districts) are the only things that can be set to Public...

Well, I think you should use the product that you like the best and that best suits your needs. Let me tell you a little more about The City of Brass. TCoB is web-based and works equally well on any device. You don't need to install any software, you don't even need an app, all you need...

Next Friday, March 6, The City of Brass Kickstarter goes live. If you haven't heard of it yet, The City of Brass is an app designed to help you manage the mechanics of your game, so you can focus on what matters: playing that game. From the developers: With The City of Brass you can...

We noticed the very low defenses as well. My group has the following numbers: 0, 7, 10, 11, 16, 17, 30 Most do not have any defensive skill trained and everyone except the jedi (30) is wearing heavy armor. Adding defensive skill options to careers will help. It will likely water everything...

I was just about to post about that. Those penalties look much better. Something to think about perhaps... eliminate the armor penalty altogether and instead give armor a base Defense pool (maybe 2 dice, or 3 dice) and have that replace the characters stat pool. To get SOAK, you then rely...

Under the older method, I felt there was too much difference. But, under the new method, the controls are tight enough that there is very little difference. Having played with both a little, I think I prefer more variation, but only if that variation rewards players that actively seek to improve...

They didn't use LUCK before, and probably won't use it after, so maybe my guys are just bad test cases for LUCK? =) I'm a bit stymied on DEFENSE. I'll try my system a few more weeks, but it just bugs me that characters actively seeking a high DEFENSE end up only marginally better than the...

Game Version August NEW playtest doc WOIN playtest update doc (for the time after it was published) Deviations from the Above Rules Defense calculations (from DEFENSE discussion) Dice pools limited to character level (we were using this before the WOIN playtest doc updated it for NEW)...

I like this and have been using a variation on it for a while. Good add.

will do
