Review: The Aether Sea by Edward Turner

Review: The Aether Sea by Edward Turner

The Aether Sea is an adventure world for Fate Core (A tabletop roleplaying game). The Aether Sea by Edward Turner Blurb: One tiny ship. One huge expanse of aetherspace. Maneuver your ship through the vast aether in The Aether Sea, a Fate world and adventure by Ed Turner. A thousand years of war on Homeworld left it a magically-blighted wasteland, so the elves and dwarves stopped fighting for five minutes and figured out how to leave it behind. Soon everyone took to the vast, empty aether sea. The Royal Hegemony keeps a tight rein on the Spellcaster’s Union, and the […]

Review: Venture City by Brian Engard and Tazio Bettin

Review: Venture City by Brian Engard and Tazio Bettin

Review: Fate Core System

Review: Fate Core System

This review is a bit different then normal. Today I review the Fate Core system book, which is a handbook to learn the tabletop roleplay game Fate Core. Fate Core System by Leonard Balsera, Brian Engard, Jeremy Keller, Ryan Macklin and Mike Olsen Blurb: A High Priestess of the barbarian hordes, an undead Wild West gunslinger, and a Second Lieutenant of the Intergalactic Security Forces are about as different as they come, but they’ve got one thing in common: they need a strong engine to drive their stories. Fate Core is that engine. Fate Core is the latest evolution of […]
