I...honestly don't see that. :)

Merry Christmas everyone. This is Chris from Dias Ex Machina. Two years ago, we ran a successful Kickstarter, and we’re still releasing content today. Today marks the release of not one but TWO new books (I think that brings it to 10) , the Player’s and World Guides for Amethyst Untamed...

Finally, Equipment, Magic & Monsters has been uploaded. This ends our Beta posts for Amethyst. There will be a survey sent out soon before we move onto layout. I don't have a deadline yet, but it will be soon. In the meantime, it's onto the layout stage for Savage Worlds.

For those curious, Amethyst-5e and Ultramodern Next are well into the second phase of their 5th Edition Playtesting. To join the group, you can find the files at either our Facebook Page https://www.facebook.com/groups/934062666604855/ ...or our Google+ page...

Amethyst Accelerated! is a double-feature utilizing Fate rules. Adapted and Written by Christopher Stilson, this 75-page tomb includes both Hearts of Chaos and the new Heralds for the Hoodoos adventure. The world after Humanity's fall from grace is a deadly and dangerous place. With Amethyst...

And finally Magic & Monsters!!! https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B62eCCVnMxF1VWJVVm10QW85RVU/view?usp=sharing

Not 5E related, but our Savage Worlds edition is also ready for playtesting. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B5PaJ_mxBn8vMkJTRmJZZmdMMFU/view?usp=sharing

After several delays, equipment is finally ready. This is where we stop for now and go about working with the current feedback. Magic won’t see much in modification, and monsters won’t be a huge concern for now. Also, expect news regarding our upcoming Savage Worlds edition quite soon...

And now, something brand new, ladders from Ultramodern4 have found their way into 5th Edition. https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B62eCCVnMxF1RmpDWEpIXzhHbmc&authuser=0

Sorry for the delay, fellow gamers; I went back and re-wrote a few of the classes. But here they are, all the classes and archetypes for both Amethyst and Ultramodern5. Just remember that these are early-alpha classes, and I look forward to feedback, both good and bad (hopefully good)...

Ultramodern 5 is expected to be OGL. Both it and Amethyst will be converted to 5th Edition.

A new update: Classes will obviously take time to iron out. I'm going for the shotgun approach, throwing ideas out and seeing what connects. Each class tries to attempt something a little different. As stated earlier, these classes are a combination of Ultramodern and Amethyst classes. Amethyst...

Like most Amethyst products, we are not introducing all new fantasy classes. Here are the new rules regarding them. Most of the additions involve new archetypes. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B62eCCVnMxF1QmgtSHBtR0IyMmM/view?usp=sharing

Yes.

Backgrounds are finally done. The reason for the delay can be seen in the playtest file. At 16,000 words and 28 pages long, it’s twice as long as the PHB’s offering, and we have 34 backgrounds to their 13. Expect the file uploaded this weekend. We couldn’t leave mechanics alone, inserting...

We originally were going to avoid all those tables in the Backgrounds section. Many of them felt generic, and I never required random rolling to define my character. Plus the PHB offered up 11 backgrounds, and Amethyst 5E will have more than 40 (meaning 40+ pages of backgrounds). However...

Here is the first file. Races. And yes, we are trying some things out...which we often do. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B62eCCVnMxF1VDR6dlQ3ZWJheGM/view?usp=sharing

Here are some ideas to expect with the upcoming 5th Edition D&D adaptation of Amethyst: Although we’re going to maintain the 5th Edition philosophy the best we can, we won’t shy away from new mechanics if it will help explore our setting better or increase player enjoyment. Per the basic...

The gears are officially moving for the ultimate edition of the Amethyst Core rules. That’s right, 5th Edition D&D, probably our most controversial announcement related to our 2013 kickstarter. But this is not a playtest just for Amethyst, but for Ultramodern5 as well—the successor of our...
