There is some amazing art examples at the Adventures in the East Mark - The Red Box Kickstarter page, apparently from later releases in the series.
Yes, I said series, as this BECMI clone is already on the market in Spain - in Spanish, of course. The Kickstarter is to bring it to the English speaking market.
Oh, did I mention its a boxed set? Rules, adventure, GM screen, dice and a pencil for 30 bucks.
Yep, I'm already in for a box. If nothing else, it gives me more options no matter the system I go with.

I was wondering if you are going to address this :) I find the art style and approach of this to be really really top notch. As far as system goes this seems like a B/X and BECMI mash-up to me with lots of classes (added in the later boxset). It is really value for money and I hope project succeds. There is a really a lot of material for the whole line (3 boxsets with a fourth one coming) so I hope you promote those guys as much as you can :)
ReplyDeleteI too was wondering if you were going to mention this. Everything I've seen so far looks nice ... my wife wants to kill me since I picked up the Spanish edition and am making her read it to me :).
ReplyDeleteIts good stuff.
I'm only as good as my readers.
ReplyDeletethis would have escaped me for a bit longer if a reader hadn't pointed it out to me.
damn near impossible to keep on top of EVERYTHING without help ;)
The one above is from the Red Box :)
ReplyDeleteThat artwork is amazing!! personally I think that guy is screwed..
ReplyDeleteI've been eyeing this Kickstarter for a couple days.. I know these guys will deliver a product unlike some of these other RPG Kickstarters.. Although, I still have a couple other books I want to get.. So I have some decisions to make .
