For what level is this? I mean is it a beginner adventure or for more advanced ones?

Interesting book and interview!

I love this game, it's really such a blast to play!

🎉 great overview and video

Great video! Our crew so needs to give this campaign a try

Is there any word on a possible solo mode for this like Dragonbane, Shadowdark, Ironsworn, etc?

Check out Star Wars d20. It is a system built on the same basic foundations as D&D 5E. A character has the same HP at level 20 as they did at level 1 (barring feats or class traits or somesuch). However, there was also another health bar (Endurance Points maybe?) that "protected" the HP bar. Those would go up by level. But at the same time, those EP could be bypassed with a critical hit (no extra damage, just bypass EP and reduce HP directly.) Additionally, EP could be used to power Force abilities (and I think other classes could use EP for various maneuvers). So HP were static, but EP were variable and an expendable resource. An elegant system for a more enlightened age.

I am really eager to see a magic only book.

The bottom guy (sorry didn't catch the name 😊) does something I've struggled with aswell, it's clear he's reading off a script. What I do to sound a bit more naturel is write down bulletpoints rather than the entire speech, that way I'll convey everything I need to. Anyway thanks for the info, I'm considering picking this up.

Hello from Belgium, and thank you for this very interesting show which has given me the pleasure of discovering you as well. I am a great enthusiast of Free League's Year Zero Engine, and I own all the franchises. Other players and Game Masters often ask me why I bought The Walking Dead RPG since I already have the rules through the other games. I tell them that it brings really interesting new mechanics: threat management (which I love), fighting against a horde, but also the system of emotional anchors and the monologue to the departed. The YZE allows combining mechanics from other franchises, such as oxygen and energy management from the Alien RPG. And that is really awesome ! Best regards.

this was a wonderful campaign to play through in the very early 80's and still fun to DM after playing. Each run through was different each time we played.

Thank you so much Manny for this great discussion, it was very interesting, and gets me even more excited to back this project. Bob and Scott were great, and you have become my favorite TTRPG channel and interviewer. Top tier quality! 👍👍

Big Trouble in Little China is still maybe my favourite film. I should check out some other Carpenter movies. I think Jack Burton has decent stats (maybe not IQ), he just brought a 150 point character to a 225 point game! Fortunately he sunk a lot of points into luck!

This is super cool! I think some individual films of Carpenter are fairly well recognized, but his body of work as a whole is criminally underrated! Please talk about making an RPG from Escape from New York!

My wife just got me the core rulebook amd starter set for Father's Day. Hopefully this will help me learn the system.

Great interview i cant tell you how many times ive re read the symbaroum books its by far my favorite universe. Im super excited for 2025 now

Eberron played in all world, thank you Keith for the Best dnd setting. Привет из России!

honestly this is very good value for the price, hope it makes it to latin america!

People who are too stupid to create are always critical of the work by those who are smart enough to create.

It's not legacy D&D it's 1981 Runequest (as you say, or Magic World from Chaosium's Worlds of Wonder). The Mallard is a direct lift from Runequest. Rules such as, costs to cast spells; anyone can learn magic; skills, less-than-or-equal to; improve skills by rolling over the level on D20; armour soaks up damage rather than affecting an armour class; slooooow character advancement. Brilliant game. Jolly good review, thank you.

Can you solo the new content/expansion?

Looks like very woke cover art.

This is the first adventure I ever played 👍I played as Dariel Kront’tane for years

Loved it for all the reasons you gave. A real change from ADnD - first time two of us ran up against an Orc we died Really quickly :-) . My main dislike was in the character creation - book was beautiful but poorly laid out, you had to flip back and forth to find the tables you needed. I would play it today under a good GM, would no want to run it. Enjoyed hearing you discuss it.

How often we went out to search for those herbs! Mirenna berry junkies:) I think a big plus for Merp was the concreteness of the rules, wounds are real wounds, herbs have names. That made the world so much more real than abstract hit points and some unnamed “healing herbs”

The Noldor should be more powerful than the other races!!!

Those Fenlon maps are also great, as are the regional descriptions in the books.

I love Merp, it has its flaws, especially when evoking mood, but the combat system and the character creation are so great. Tried to play TOR but ti me it’s like playing in a straight jacked if horrible abstract rules. Hate it, feel like Sauron made it to dominate all life. Those social conflict rules🤦🏻‍♂️

I like the character sheet is more easy to read and more print friendly but... they need to make the upper part a little smaller to make the weapon list more larger (aka more weapons). Also the skill list... maybe they will have to consider to remove some skills from the game because 56 skills isn't happening in that character sheet. I hope for the cyberware part is finally a 1 cell list and not multiple cell boxes like the base version.

Where can you get the books (not PDF's) in the USA?

It's going to be really cool! Thnx for this interview, sir 👍🤓 Tomas, will there be more things coming soon for Forbidden Lands? Thnx And, Tomas, that "nerve" in the game system is absolutely 💯 cool, and definitely old school in feel, for sure! Thank you 👊

I wonder if it would be possible to move it backwards into the early Georgian period?

looks great!

Some confusion. Is this basically stuff from the 2nd ed just updated to 5th? And why in the world would you not show any of the art from the book?

We run Red for real! Thanks!

Thanks for having us on!

I just got this for cheap with the Imperfect Print Edition and super excited to run this for my fiance and daughter.

Thanks for the interview. Great explanation! My first experience with d100 games was the board game League of Dungeoneers.

This book has so much more in than I expected. Very cool, and suitability bonkers 🤪

I think, of all the interviews and materials I've seen about this book, this is the one that will finally get me to buy it.

Thanks for this amazing Game and your Videos about it!

Very interesting discussion of converting the CRPG to a tabletop system. Thanks.

I came to Modiphius 2D20 System by buying Homeworld: Fleet Command (Board Game) and simultaneously buying the 2D20 Homeworld: Revelations setting in order to do a cross-play-campaign using the board game and the TTRPG. I have been playing D&D and PF 1E for two decades now, but I instantly liked the narrative style and the elegant mechanics (truths and meta-gaming-currencies) of 2D20. So I bought the Achtung!Cthulu and Dune setting - BUT there was missing a classical (preferably low magic) high fantasy setting using 2D20 - AND HERE IT IS. Yesterday I bought Jeremy´s campaign book and can´t await to dive into it!

Just bought Mazda from my FLGS yesterday. What drew me to it was the book's beautiful physicality. Thank you

if i were to play this on roll20 what character sheet should i use?

First

Fear Itself and Shiver are my two my favourite.

It's incredible the amount of GMs that don't know what an TTRPG is. I'm lucky I haven't come across GMs like you talk about.

I’d say that eventually becomes discernible. It really does sound like you are belittling it through most of your review. That’s probably just a byproduct of all the giggling and snickering the one gentleman does while he talks. It definitely sends mixed messages. I can never stand aside while BECMI is besmirched. Either way, thanks for responding. At least you got some comments out of it.
