Schrodinger's Games: Legend of the Burning Sands (AEG, 1998-1999)
มุมมอง 114หลายเดือนก่อน
Long Overdue, we cover the crazy spin-off from L5R, AEG's legend of the Burning Sands. We primarily cover the Card game, though an RPG was made 10 years later. This is more of a meta-video that a How to Play video. More videos may come in the future. Timestamps: 16:49 Power Levels! 22:34 The RPG NOTES: I could write a full essay about the nuances of this game! If anything in the comments inspir...

Dead Games: RONIN Duels (Cell Entertainment, 2000-2003)
มุมมอง 874 หลายเดือนก่อน
A one-off Mecha game from Sweden, from the turn of the millennia. It starts as one-on-one fights but can easily go eight to a side.... I have checked...NO ONE ELSE has video of this on TH-cam.... that the algorithm lets me see. Damned Algorithm! NOTES: none so far.

How well is any one game doing? Can you trust what you hear?

Clash Of Steel is now up for preview (2-17-24)
มุมมอง 7858 หลายเดือนก่อน
GF9 / Battlefront's new game is up for perusal. You can see it here: www.gf9games.com/clashofsteel/homepage/ It looks like it's essentially Flames of War 1948 setting. Panthers get to be a Medium Tank for real, and the Maus is somehow in production? And, the Germans are not Nazi's! ....but, are we headed to Volksarmee? NOTES: I really wonder what the scout trait means....is it just scout in v4?...
Basic Budgeting for TableTop Gamers

A budgeting video with minimal math? How is this possible? Well, I offer up that finances should be approached like a mindset, and not a chore. This is not an advanced finance video. Not even.

The images all come from Battlefronts Preview video (and 2 of my older videos). The new Clash of Steel game has caused a few to stop and wonder. What is Clash of Steel? Why is Battlefront making it? Will the game take over the spot of some other game? I gather what information I have, combing the video preview for every last scrap of detail. Here are my thoughts.

Schrodinger's Games: Some Space-Opera 1976 (West End Games 1987-1998)
มุมมอง 1979 หลายเดือนก่อน
For those of you who played, you know more than this video tells. I am very sure a few hard-cores are out there still playing this. In this video, I just talk about how the first RPG fits into the formative years of a very important culture-affecting franchise: Star Wars. This covers mostly 1976-1992, but the entire thing is pre-1999 for sure. Yes, I am really beating around the bush with this ...

    As for the “matrix prophecy” being used in this game to describe the internet/cyberspace. That was first coined/used in the deadly assassin 1976 or maybe even doctor who origins. So Heresy weren’t the first to use in this way.

    Technically, the birds from Far Country predate The Dark One; but my favorite theory regarding Far Country is that it's in-universe fiction, written by an eccentric author as thanks for a mercenary company letting them take a look at some rare LAM units they had.

    Great video! It would be cool to know more about the factions of this game. They seem a lot more varied in nature than the clans of Rokugan, and it's rather hard to find a good lore breakdown. What I can find seems to favor the Lot5R lore and mostly focuses on the Destroyer War and the fall of the Ivory Kingdom.

    11:34: The Rules-Tinkerer in me is immediately contemplating adapting this to any number of other systems that may be a better fit, like Tunnels & Trolls, or Advanced Fighting Fantasy, or even Meadows & Megaliths. I agree that it was likely designed with children in mind (no problem with that), but older, more sophisticated RPGers will likely crave something with a bit more rules-crunch, while still remaining accessible. Great review! Thanks! 😎
