My copy is still on the way but I wanted there to be a thread about it so I can discuss it when it does arrive. There are some comments about it online as well, such as the one below, so hopefully more will be written about it as more people read it and play it. http://greenskeletongamingguild.blogspo ... earth.html

Got it today! VERY noice indeed. All the art is good, but Hanzo's is head and shoulders above anyone else's. It's good that the other stuff's there, however, as it makes Hanzo's look even better in comparison. I haven't read it yet but have looked at the artwork - I want an entire comic about the guy with the crab claw.

Bumping this because I have started reading it and it's actually a lot of fun.
The art in it is all good, but Hanzo's is gooderer than the other artists.

What does it take to play? Is it RPG like D&D, or do you need some other stuff like maps to play?

I think it's pretty much optional. You can go to those lengths or not, depending on what you want to do. It's incredibly free form. If I were going to do it I'd want to structure it like a game of Necromunda - a small scale version of Warhammer 40K - where small gangs are getting into skirmishes, etc.

I think all you need is the dice and a couple people. The character sheets can be downloaded for free.
It’s based on a system called “The Black Hack” which is meant to be very simple. The writer works full time and has noticed it’s harder to get RPG time as such — so he’s devoted to systems that make play easy and fast-moving.

Hanzo the Razor wrote: Thanks for all the kind words, Simon! It's just my honest opinion. The book is great fun to read and the background is ideal for an RPG. It's like a cyberpunk version of The Atomic Knights with some Kamandi thrown in, seasoned with some Yor The Hunter From The Future.

I keep saying it, but it's true - no one would know that was "amateur" art. Totes professional looking.

You really are very, very good Hanzo. I looked at this book again today and was so impressed.
