Greetings once more!

Greetings once more from the Tabletop Multiverse!

Apologies for my absence, but it has been a very busy time for me between work, getting married, putting a lot of effort my tabletop RPG project, and much more.

I hope I will be able to return to posting on this blog again now. Exactly how often I will be able to post remains to be seen, and will most definitely depend on what is happening IRL for me.

This will most likely be a short post - meant more as a sign of life than anything else really.

So this means no new RPG-related news from me in this.

In my absence I did take the time to pledge for a Kickstarter from Free League - their new game Forbidden Lands which I think looks amazing. :) I really can't wait to give it a try once it arrives!

As I mentioned earlier, I have been spending time working on my own tabletop rpg project as well. I've been developing a game system as well as a world. It is far from finished yet. I guess you could say it is still in alpha. I do enjoy the challenge and the process of writing it though. It would be a dream to get it published some day for others to enjoy as well, but at the moment I am far away from being able to do that.

I'll return and write more about the project and what I am doing in a future post.

For now, it is time for this weary traveler of the Tabletop Multiverse's many winding paths to go rest his head for a bit and enjoy that thing widely known as "sleep".

Until next time!

Kickstarter for Mutant: Elysium, the new expansion for Mutant: Year Zero.

Greetings!

Fria Ligan (English website: Free League Publishing) has started up a Kickstarter for their new expansion for Mutant: Year Zero, called Mutant: Elysium. It will be the 3rd major expansion for Mutant: Year Zero, the previous two being Mutant: Gene Lab Alpha and Mutant: Machinarium.

The current Kickstarter is only for the Swedish version of the game, but according to Fria Ligan there will be a translated version in English released at a later, so far unspecified, date.

This new expansion deals with the un-mutated humans that remain in the world, their "Ätter" (which I suppose could be translated into "clans") and their life in the enclave 'Elysium I'. It will contain new rules, a colour map, a new campaign, and much more.

The Kickstarter has only been up a few days, but it has already amassed 448 backers and almost 6 times their pledge-goal, currently sitting (at the time of writing this) at 333,397 SEK (Swedish crowns) out of a goal of 50,000 SEK. They have already unlocked 5 out of 9 stretch goals. and I hope they will get to unlock all of them. There is also still 17 days to go on the Kickstarter, so if you go to the Kickstarter which is linked at the start of this post and like what you see, there is still time if you want to back it.

Personally I used to really enjoy playing the Mutant games back in the day. I enjoy Mutant: Year Zero as well, but have as of yet not found someone to play it, or any of the expansions, with, or really the time, so I can't really say much about what it is like to play. However I have heard a lot of good things about it, so I am excited for when I can give it a try. :)

Until next time!

New expansion for Mutant: Year Zero coming up.

Greetings!

Swedish RPG company Free League Publishing (Fria Ligan in Swedish), who created Mutant: Year Zero, has announced a new expansion for the game, the third one so far, called Mutant: Elysium. They will be launching the Kickstarter for it tomorrow (Thursday). This time it is about non-mutated humans in the post-apocalyptic setting of Mutant: Year Zero.

They haven't released much else in terms of information about it yet, save for a teaser picture which can be found, for example, on their Facebook page. It is only showing a part of the cover image for Mutant: Elysium, with a promise to show more of it once the Kickstarter is up and running. The image was made by Simon Stålenhag.

Personally, I really like Mutant: Year Zero, both the setting and the rule-set for it. So I will definitely check it out once it comes up on Kickstarter. At the time of writing this blog post I still don't know whether the Kickstarter is for the Swedish version only, or whether there will also be an English version. My guess is that there will be one, but I am unsure when.

Until next time!
