Great new system that trims down the mechanics of role-playing while focusing the tactical decisions into choices that matter. Dice pools for physical and mental tasks provide a great risk/reward option to every decision without slowing the flow of the game. Character building is smooth with enough choices to round out and create a unique character. Progression through the perk trees looks to make it easy to specialize in a role or gain a breadth of skills to make each character stand out. A great introduction to this system and this world. I hope to see more coming soon.
P.S. - I was drawn to the background map as a watermark on each page. Would like to see that poster-sized in full!
