RogerDee Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 This is a great new rpg based upon Mythras. It has some wonderful art, and special talents which are clearly influenced by Savage Worlds Edges. I consider it a great addition to the family. https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/305892/Sabre-RPG-2e-Fantasy-Basic The basic fantasy version is completely free, although the full versions are not all that expensive, so if you wanted to expand your Mythras game, this could be the extras you want. Thoroughly recommend this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lawrence.whitaker Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 Sabre isn't part of the Mythras family, or use the Gateway license. Its structure follows Mythras in many key areas, and in its first edition there were some problems with rules being copied without permission. This was problematic, as Sabre was released under the Legend OGL (as is the second edition). The new edition has steered clear of the earlier version, and from what I've seen of the rules, has started to forge its own direction. Any further discussion of Sabre should take place in one of the other areas here on BRPC, rather than in this one, which is reserved for Mythras and its Mythras Gateway cousins.

Not sure if this is something you need to address, but it does state about using part of Mythras engine in the blurb still. But yeah can post thus elsewhere on this site if need be.

But yeah can post thus elsewhere on this site if need be. We actually insisted that that disclosure be included as part of resolving the copyright issues with the first edition, so it's something we're fully aware of, and it acknowledges the role Mythras played in Sabre's development, even though it uses the Legend OGL as its licensing mechanism. We've no problems with what Sabre are now doing, and certainly wish the game well, but it is produced outside of the Mythras apparatus, hence my comments upthread. 4 Quote The Design Mechanism: Publishers of Mythras Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lloyd Dupont Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 (edited) Yeah, I read the rules, and it's as far as Mythras as any other D100 skill based system could be... 😮 Though, funnily enough, the willpower, endurance and evade skills are still there and show the ancestry!
