    Arcanis the Roleplaying Game Available for Preorder

    Hello again Fifth Element, I believe there is. As I explained earlier, as the Hero gains the experience points necessary to advance to the next Rank or Tier, they get to choose what sort of advancement they will receive. Now let's skip 4E due to my limited exposure to it and compare that to...

    Arcanis the Roleplaying Game Available for Preorder

    Hello Fifth Element, I was going by the formula Ggray gave me, as in the level/2 modifier. Avoidance is not a modifier, its more analogous to a TN or Armor Class. Perhaps the error is my unfamiliarity with 4th E. The kind folks at WotC sent me a complimentary copy of the 3 Core Books, but...

    Hello, I've heard that from a lot of our players, but 'Yes' Year of the Fall was released and sold out a few months later. We do have it available as a PDF however. Best,

    Hello Ggray, Well, the world is a big place. Let me give you another scenario *****SPOILER ALERT for YEAR 6 of Living Arcanis***** In the grand finale of our 6 year story-arc, the Heroes had to reveal the existence of a False Emperor on the throne of the most powerful empire in the Known...

    Hello again, Ggray - Nope. No offense to all the 4E players, but this is not like 4E either in execution nor in design philosophy (from what I know of it). The Tiers obviously are indicative of how powerful or skilled an entity is, but we tried to stay away from the whole, this means...

    Hello, Not a problem. That's what I'm here for and I do so gladly. No. Avoidance is the sum of two Attribute Scores +8. This number can be raised using an option from that advancement list I mentioned earlier. Thus, it isn't a static number throughout your Heroic Life, unless choose it to...

    Hello again, Ggray, Short answer: Nope. Slightly longer Answer: We plan on releasing the Codex Arcanis next year, updated through the current Campaign Year (1071 I.C.) and start to bring in other parts of the world, such as the Khitani Empire, Dar Zhan Vor, and the nations of the Southern...

    Hello Ggray, We developed something a bit different. Instead of "Levels" we have a Tier and Rank system. The game supports 5 Tiers of play and there are 10 ranks per Tier. Every Rank that you advance, you may choose one option from a list. Some of these options may be taken more than once...

    Hello Nikosandros, Well thank you very much! It helps when you love a product and believe in it 100%. :) Well, you could do that, but you might as well wait for the "real deal". A few of the rules have changed due to Player input, but the Core remained intact. For example, the Hero's...

    Good morning, Sorry for the delay, but (as some insight into PCI) I'm an attorney and the rest of the principals are all professionals as well. PCI is a hobby (that we love to death) but sometimes real life impinges. Anyway, on to your questions - LOL- Unfortunately, the book is being laid...

    Hello my Inquisitive friend, Sorry for the delay in responding, but its been a busy day of "lawyering" today. ;-) They have a variety of uses from the standard re-roll a failed check or the avoid death I mentioned. One of the interesting rules we developed for Fate points is a Last Man...

    Hello everyone, Let's see if I can get the image to work this time. Cross your fingers! If this works, you should see the cover to the Arcanis:World of Shattered Empires RPG with a fantastic art piece by Steve Argyle. Best,

    Hello again, Matrix, Ah, excellent. I can't afford to lose many more pieces of my soul ;-) But seriously, I'm glad you were aware of Arcanis from its 3E days and we appreciate your patronage! No need to wait that long. You should be able to get a glimpse of things after FREE RPG DAY (or...

    Good Morning, Vyvyan, Thank you for taking the time to look into the Quicklaunch, which is unfortunately, no longer for sale. Allow me to explain. The Quicklaunch (which was an error in naming on our part) is NOT the usual Quick Start rules that are given away. This was a 200+ page book that...

    Arcanis the Roleplaying Game Available for Preorder

    Hello again Matrix, Thanks! It is very tied to the setting, but should be easy enough to take what we give you and make your own adjustments. Arcanis, for example, doesn't have the cuddly Gnomes most gamers are familiar with. They are misshapen, grotesque creatures that are the result of a...

    Hello, Thank you for your kind words and I'm glad you enjoyed the six year run of LA. Actually CSE premiered last Origins and most of the adventures released are available for Home Play already. Until the new Campaign website is up, just request them through our forum. Maryrita is excellent...

    Hello again, You can switch them on and off, but it would require a bit more work on the Chronicler's side of things. The way I do it. Let's say you have a not critical fight. Six Khur Gi horsemen are roughing up two Milandisian Knights that were caught with their pants down. Now here I...

    Hello, Of course. I'll do my best to answer. Correct - The Archetype chosen shows the emphasis that you want your Hero to have, but it doesn't straitjacket you later. The four Archetypes are Martial, Expert, Arcane and Divine. Now, by not straitjacketing you later, I mean that (for...

    Hello, Glad your interest was piqued! I would if I had any clue how. I just spent 20 minutes fiddling with it and nothing ever showed on the Preview. If you can make it work, PLEASE feel free to do so! Alright, let me describe it for you. We wanted a system that would feel much more...
