WH40K Wrath & Glory Is Here!

As of right now, you can pick up the Warhammer 40K: Wrath & Glory core rulebook PDF from Cubicle 7 if you pre-order the hardcover (which is expected to ship this Autumn).

UPDATE -- you can also pick up the PDF on DriveThruRPG, and if you previously purchased the Ulisses version of the book, it will be automatically updated for you for free there.

Anyone got this and want to comment on it?

Im curious about the game and if its any good.

Yup, systems that have well designed mechanics that support the core feel and tenets of the game are great. That's one of the reasons I have always shied away a little from universal systems like GURPS.

I agree completely.

While not quite that bad, the d20 OGL has had a profound effect on the hobby.

D&D used to be the 800lb gorilla in the room. Now it's the 800,000lb gorilla.

It was a brilliant move by WOTC. The d20 OGL made the "RPG Hobby" = D&D.

The 5e Boom has not trickled down to the non-d20/D&D side of the RPG hobby.

Trickle down economics was a BS economic theory. And it doesn't work for the RPG industry either.

That being said I am very interested in looking at the system W&G uses. Die pool systems tend to work well when working within a specified "power band" for the genre the system is trying to emulate. I am curious to see if W&G really does do separate and distinct "Tiers" of power.

Kickstarter changed that, though.
