[QUOTE="Blue, post: 7688874, member: 20564"] Been running it since it came out, love it. I wish it had the market penetration of 5e or PF, but the timing with the Next Playtest and then 5e coming out put it in competition with a fantastic brand and a similar game experience niche (rules-lighter D&D-type fantasy). Not that I wish 5e was worse - it's a great game. But I think in the market it overshadowed 13th Age and this is a wonderful game that more people should pay attention to. If you look at each edition of D&D-like games as fantasy heartbreakers, 5e advanced the state of the art with Advantage/Disadvantage and brought in Inspiration. 13th Age advanced it with the mechanics of Backgrounds, Icons and Icon relationships, brought in One Unique thing and failing forward as well as a host of other ideas that have been out there but not in a fantasy heartbreakers. Really, pick up 13th Age - even if it's just to improve your 5e game. [/QUOTE]
