[I’m only about 98% sure this is the correct forum, so feel free to adjust if necessary.]
So. yesterday Fantasy Flight Games (FFG) announced they’re going to release a generic system based on their narrative dice later in the year. For those of you that do not know, the narrative dice are the ones used in the Star Wars RPG [see Balance of Power], minus the Force die, that allow a roll to e.g. succeed at a cost or fail with benefits.
The CRB is going to include examples(?) for the genres Fantasy, Steampunk, Weird War (something akin to Alternate History), Modern Day and Science Fiction (with Android (Netrunner) as an example). Supplementals are going to add more examples and genres (and presumably also expand on them).
Personally, I was sort of suprised to see it - even though in hindsight it is very obviously a good move to get away from Licenses for FFG (see Warhammer [both Fantasy and 40k] for example)
What do you guys think?
