Fallen Seraph
First Post
Well, I did end up getting the book. I have to say it fits quite well with what I would like to play.
I prefer having the Cthulhu stuff in the background and adding spice instead of overwhelming the setting. I like that too the Mythos has been warped and changed, it is fun to notice little things that are changed, almost like a game into itself.
I find the Mecha rules quite elegant in their simplicity, especially given how it mirrors ordinary combat. The Engels are wonderful, and will probably use them in at least one game.
I too like the three games in one book, idea. I like being able to explore different avenues of the game world through different eyes.
-So NEG agents tracking down illegal sorcerers and confiscating tomes.
-Mecha and Engel pilots battling against the "Bugs", I know my group will have fun with call signs and military lingo with this.
-Tagers tracking down the cults and slipping into the shadows to unleash their other-half.
It just seems to work nicely together, without stepping on eachothers toes.
I also like how the setting is loose enough to alter. For instance visually I will be altering a fair amount of things, I plan on making the NEG cities extremely bright, sterile and filled with primary colours. Also changing "New Tokyo" to "Tokyo 3" (some people may get the reference).
