OLD/NEW The crew of a spaceship with a prototype engine find that it shifts them into another dimension when they try to go into ftl. In this new universe the scientific laws they know don't always apply. That could eventually lead to using NOW as well, if the crew keeps using the engine.

If N.O.W. gets a separate KS later I would pitch in, but I'm still holding out hope for the stretch goal.

I second this idea. I totally want MacGuyver style PCs to be viable.

I like having a way for noncasters to use magic. The new set of rules looks good to me.

I would really like to see spellbook casting more fleshed out, and cooperative magic. Both are classics in fiction and woefully neglected in games.

That's great! You get the best of both.

Just after the weapon quality table the text says that you have to take a skill the required number of times to get the benefits of a mastercrafted weapon. Is that a holdover from an earlier version? While I'm on about weapons, any chance we'll get info on ammunition and reloading soon? I like...

I would like to see rules for deprivation included, as well.

I think a lot of the GM prep can be handled by having a good list of sample signature spells. A database searchable by spell list and MP cost would be great, too. I think the proposed system gives up too much flexibility. It seems too restrictive. If I have an idea for a really cool spell that...

I think the bit about gems could be clearer.

I definately prefer the elements of magic system.

Is there any way to learn a spell list aside from taking a rank in a magical tradition? As far as I can tell 7MP is the strongest you can make a concoction, according to the text. The tables indicate much higher numbers. Why is that?

That's interesting. That means the roll only matters if you get lucky.

That sounds like a good fix to me. On another note. For health it says if you roll less than 3 times your END you increase it to that amount. Should that be 3 times the number of dice rolled?

I thought of more questions and observations. There's a special fate use entry under explosive objects. Should that be luck instead of fate? Or perhaps removed entirely? The competency table shows that you can't take a skill twice until you increase your tier. The knight tradition requires...

The authorization wouldn't go through because it was routed to the UK.

That's really cool. I hope to see more of such fiction in the future.

Apparently some US banks don't process transactions overseas at all. I'm backing the project as soon as I get a debit card from my new bank.

Wow, you're fast! Thanks, again, for the info.

Thanks for the speedy response. I've come up with a couple more questions. How many turns are in a minute? This becomes important if someone foolishly tries to cast a spell on the fly during combat. Do you have to take aim and feint as tricks to use them? The information under combat actions...
