WWE KNOW YOUR ROLE Demo

[Allensh]

I got ahold of a cut-and-paste version of the upcoming WWE: KNOW YOUR ROLE RPG demo that was passed out at Gen Con and I have been trying it out with some friends. It's definitley D20/OGL. but with some tweaks. I have to say it is fun, fast-paced and better than what there is of Wrestle D20. I would be interested in hearing what anyone who played in the demo at Gen Con thought of it. It's coming out in December from Comic Images.

Are they going to post the demo for download? That would help promote their game.

I'm one of the playtesters for this. There's nothing public so far, aside from the GenCon handouts. I know they're starting a Yahoo!group fan list soon. They may be adding some stuff there. I'm not even sure the company producing it (I think the same people that make the Raw Deal CCG) has anything on their website about it yet.

Tony gave me the okay to answer some general questions about the game if anybody is curious. Keep in mind there are some things I can't elaborate on yet, but I'll do my best.

I guess I should be able to figure this out but is this some Play by forum thing or is it actually going in print...?

 

[Greatwyrm]

It'll be a print product. It's being made by Comic Images, the same people that do the WWE ccg called Raw Deal. I believe they're shooting for a December release date for the core book, with the first supplement to follow early in 2005.

 

[Ranger REG]

So who are the designers for the RPG? Name please.

 

[DeBracy]

Haha... cool! I figure this'll be a great game to run at any gamecon!
I wonder if it'll hit the stores in Sweden though... wrestling hasn't been really popular around here since early/mid ninties or so. I just heard this week that a Swedish channel is going to air WWE RAW though. Maybe it's time for wrestlemania among the Norse again?

Maybe it's time for wrestlemania among the Norse again?

Now why does that sound like the Viking form of foreplay?
