Dungeons and Dragons 4th edition.
From the press release, it sounds very much like a version of the Star Wars Saga edition. "4th Edition play is designed to be faster and easier for the Dungeon Master to adjudicate. " That seems very much like what they said about SW Saga before it came out... ;)
Anyone who is interested in playing a campaign of GODLIKE, let me know... rekres@gmail.com
It is superhero roleplaying in WWII. I uses the One Roll Engine (from Godlike, Wild Talents, Nemesis) where you roll a dicepool looking for matches. The more dice that match the better the result.
I'm trying to get a feel for who all might be interested before I commit to running the game... :)

The website says it all, but here's an enticement for you....
* Larger board, 10x10 instead of 8x8 and 4 extra spaces in the corners for a total of 104 squares on the board.
* Two new pieces the Champion and the Wizard, which can jump other pieces similar to the Knight.

Wizkids fights back over WotC's new patent.
I recently volunteered to be a Sky Lord for White Silver Publishing's new game "Chronicles of Ramlar". The Sky Lords are the demo guys for the game, similar to MIB for SJGames or the Special OPS for Atlas Games.
I'd like to set up an official demo at Critical Effect, probably sometime in mid-Febuary.
For more info on the game and company...

And if anyone knows a game store, gameday, convention, or other forum in NW Indiana that would like an official demo, please let me know.
:D
