A Call For Playtesters!
« on: March 24, 2012, 04:23:48 AM »
Good news everyone.  As a few of you many know I have been diligently typing away on my brand-spanking new post-apocalypse ruleset called This is Not a Test.  Inspired by the classic GW games such as Necromunda and Mordheim, and numerous other non-GW games, This is Not a Test features warband development, tons of skills and mutations, and plenty of firepower.  Using a d10 and two simple die mechanics (beating a target number and opposed rolls), my ruleset is designed to be simple and fun to play.  Determining if this last statement is true is where I need your help.  I have put together a brief playtest packet and would like some folks here to give a looksie and hopeful may even take the rules for test run.  Any feedback people can provide is invaluable and greatly appreciated.  You can reach me here via PM or at my email at joseph_mcguire@hotmail.com.  If you are interested please send me your email so I can you the PDF playtest packet.   Thanks.  :D

Best wishes with your rules.
I know you're too old to play with toy soldiers. So give them to me... NOW!

I forgot to mention.  To those who received the packet and run a few games, please tell me what you think of the relative point costs.  Point costing any system is rather complicated and my method is fraught with peril.  I could especially use any feedback on it.  Good or bad.

Pray hard but pray with care
For the tears that you are crying now
