Latest Acquisitions...Bargains!!


     Here's the latest additions to my RPG collection.  All three of the above were acquired at bargain prices!  I know the systems are all over the place, guess I'm just an eclectic gamer!  Everstone is one I had not heard of before, until I saw Tetsubo talk about it over on his Youtube Channel.  It is d20 based, specifically off of the BESM d20 system. While lately I have shied away from 3.x based games this one looked pretty interesting and I couldn't resist the price.  $5 bucks!  That's right I picked this up for only $5 and its a hardback book.  The art is pretty good, and the whole setting has some cool features to it, reminds me in some ways of the Eberron setting, but I like this setting better than Eberron. Anyways check out Tetsubo's post if you want more info about it, he goes into a pretty detailed review of the game.  Next is the Basic Roleplaying System Core Rulebook, AncientVaults hooked me up with this copy for a great price.  I haven't had time to really read much of it, but it looks like a pretty solid system and I saw where there is a recently released P.A. Campaign released for BRP called Rubble & Ruin, so I may have to check that out.  Finally I recently found the Savage Worlds pre-Explorer's edition of 50 Fathoms in the bargain bin at my FLGS.  One of my gaming buds (Derelict Man) gave it a good review and for the price I had to pick it up.  I am glad I did.  It's a great book, awesome resource for Savage Worlds. Now I've just got to find the time to play some of these games.  *sigh*
Good Gaming -B

  2. Thank you for the link! :)

    Everstone is a little gem in my opinion. It reminds me a lot of Earthdawn with some Lovecraft thrown in. I also prefer it to the actual BESM D20 system. I've read the latter since I made this video review.
