One day, you want to play Fantasy. One day, you want to play Cyberpunk. One day, you want to play Space Opera. If you don’t want to have to learn a new gaming system for each of these, you should check out the Furious Action SysTem rules (FAST for short). The new multi-genre RPG book is up on Kickstarter now.
From the campaign:
Welcome to the Furious Action SysTem, or FAST for short! When I set out to create this mechanic, I couldn’t help remembering a talk I’d had with Savage Worlds designer Shayne Hensley at some long-forgotten GenCon in which he said, ‘I designed Savage Worlds in the way I did because I’m a lazy DM’. Those words have stuck with me for over a decade, and the older I get, the more a complex game simply seems like too high a hill to climb. It was for that reason alone that I sat down and decided I wanted to create a multi-genre RPG that not only could play in both Fantasy and Science Fiction with equal ease, but also would take the weight of sustained accounting set-up and table combat off the gamemaster’s shoulders.
The campaign’s around 3x funded with 22 days left to go.
