Title: [Commercial] Slugfest! Solo & Cooperative Super Gaming
Post by: fourcolorfigs on 06 January 2021, 01:27:33 PM
Well, it's a day like no other! We are releasing Slugfest! Solo & Cooperative Super Gaming in PDF! And we have an additional surprise, our first official adventure supplement, The Altimaxx Imperative is also available in PDF today! Here are your links:

https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/342489/Slugfest-Solo--Cooperative-Super-Gaming

https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/342343/A1-The-Altimaxx-Imperative

The core Slugfest rules will be available in print via Lulu within a couple of weeks. I need to set up the files today, then request print proofs to make sure everything is solid with it. You will have the option to purchase a hardcover or coil binding. The default is color, but I may also offer cheaper B&W options too.

It's possible the  coil binding could be offered sooner, as I can have a local printer turn around a proof on that very quickly and clear it for sale. We'll see on that.

For those of you on here who know my other games, this is not a Goalsystem game. It's D20 based, and inspired by Rangers of the Shadow Deep. If you want solo super action with Goalsystem, see my recently released supplement, Athwart Time.

If you have any questions, please let me know.

Thank you!

Thanks for the info! 

I was not aware of the GOALsystem Co-op/solo options so I will look into those too! I am a fan of the GOAL system more than d20.  However, as a designer it is good to expand your comfort zone.

Great, I bought the PDF but it is too long to print out and I'd prefer a hard copy

thanks

Thanks, folks! I will be supporting this with regular, affordable PDF releases on Drivethru RPG. I have two adventures out now. Another is in play-test, and I have a parallel set of release for it I am going to call More Power--the "MP" series. These will include new powers, limiters, and rules for play.

I really appreciate all of the support!

Thanks! I hope you love it! I have two adventures done and out, a third in the can waiting to be released, and I am working the first More Power supplement. It will offer more powers, skills, limiters, and rough vehicle rules.

What is the size of play area used?
Title: Re: [Commercial] Slugfest! Solo & Cooperative Super Gaming
Post by: fourcolorfigs on 09 May 2021, 06:54:50 PM
Usually 3' x 3', but some issues call for 2' x 3' or even 2' x 2'.

Hope this helps!

A question about the first scenario (The Bedlam Affair / The Heist): how are the buildings (bank and others) supposed to work here? Can you enter them? What happens if you do?

A question about the first scenario (The Bedlam Affair / The Heist): how are the buildings (bank and others) supposed to work here? Can you enter them? What happens if you do?

That's left up to you and your terrain. If you want them to be accessible, I recommend using "off-table" grid maps for the interior. Heroclix maps work very well too. If you enter the bank prior to one or both of the villains (Bruiser Benning and / or Tonalli) make their exit, you can carry the fight to them in there.

Hope that helps!
