DreadDomain Posted May 15, 2021 Report Share Posted May 15, 2021 Good stuff! Looking forward to learn about which BRP frame will be used as a based (the rule light BRP SRD, the crunchier BGB, the streamlined CoC 7e?) Which options will be used (pushed dice, resistance table, skill modifiers, passions, personality traits, etc)? And which add-ons will be used to better translate The Folly to the gaming table? Oh the mystery! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tend not to either but the ones done by James at edited to 5 to 10 minutes so they are easy to listened to... The summary: First round of playtesting finished. Tried a few ideas. Some worked, some didn't (no detail given) Second round of playtesting to start soon. Lynne pitched the Rivers of London RPG to Ben at a book signing. He was already keen about making it a RPG and was thinking BRP/CoC would be a good fit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, it's a l-o-n-g way from announcement to the show first airing; I'm betting on the RPG to hit first... But I bet you get another surge in sales when the the show drops! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
