I'm really enjoying my read of Forthright! Is there any chance the errata will make it into the core rulebook files? Would love to order a physical copy with as few errors as possible.

Hi Brett,

I'm glad you're enjoying your read-through! We consider the Errata for Forthright to be less "errors" and more "improvements and clarifications" that we decided to add in one place after getting questions sent to us via our website, Facebook, or Google+ (back when that existed).

We have not added the Errata into the book text directly because we would need to re-layout, re-flow, re-index, and re-proof the book to do so: a significant business cost that we don't have the sales numbers to support. Sorry :-(

My goodness, I'm trying to get an accurate measure of this system and most of what I'm getting are political debates. Can anyone give me a brief overview of the faction and domain mechanics? Is there an adjoined mechanic for mass combat, or at least an abstraction of martial forces?

Whoops, just saw mass combat in the bullet list, so that much is confirmed. So much in here I overlooked it!

Hi Richard,

FOR Factions are designed to model organizations as small as street gangs and as massive as interstellar governments. There are rules present for creating a Faction by gathering several like-minded members and establishing an Agenda (defining a Faction's goals and methods). There are also suggestions for defining membership criteria, how Factions should interact with the Team of Protagonists in situations where the Team contains members of multiple Factions, and a basic Rank structure that can be expanded upon to give different Factions different flavors. Promotions / demotions within a Faction's ranks are also covered.

Factions interact with FOR's social rules on a personal level (Talk Checks to convince a higher-ranking official to back a specific play, or to convince others to join the Faction) while expanding on those rules for specific Faction/Domain vs. Faction/Domain play. This higher-level look at Faction vs. Faction can be used by the Guide to roleplay out Faction...See more

Intriguing! Thanks for the direct reply. This definitely sounds like it's up my alley and I may well be giving it a buy soon. Saw some further reviews on Youtube recently that have me drawn in by the social aspects as well.

A great title! Very excited to give it a try. But I am experiencing a minor problem- the "form fillable" sheets included with the rules don't seem to actually have fillable fields. Any chance of an update? Thanks!

Hi Cody,

Thanks for bringing this to my attention! I'm tracking down with OneBookshelf why those files aren't form-fillable and how we can resolve it. I'll update here once it's fixed :-)

The game sheets are now contained within a Zip file to prevent them from being watermarked by the DTRPG downloader. They should now be properly form-fillable once unzipped. Please let me know if you run into any more issues, and thanks again!

I noticed that two people gave this book a 1 Star review because of the "political" message in the yellow box above. I would like to point out that BECAUSE of said yellow box (and those two reviews), I have just bought this game (PDF + Physical). It's not every company that is willing to so boldly and openly act against injustice, especially in this messed up, divided political landscape where doing so can so easily blow up in your face.
So, kudos to Room 209 Gaming for their willingness to take action for the greater good, even at the risk of personal loss.

Does the full edition here incorporate the errata found in the CC licensed, free version?

The Errata PDF is included, but its contents are not incorporated directly into the Core Rulebook.

I liked the artless version's layout enough, and the game's quite decent for a universal ruleset. So far, I'm well and content to find more Western artists that matches my aesthetic preference.

And while I was first confused about that political text above, a little research made me open my wallet after learning that this ACLU folks helped with banning the ridiculous idea of teaching Creationism in public schools many decades ago...

I nearly passed this by until I saw the review and comments from xenophobes throwing hissy fits over your pledge to donate to the ACLU and RAICES. Thank you for this.

As for the guy parroting the dumb catchphrase, "Get woke go broke," I remember a lot of MRA types saying that very thing about the Captain Marvel movie. Look how that turned out.

One successful title doesn't prove the avalanche of evidence in the other direction wrong.

I bought your book BECAUSE of the charity donation statement in your description. That being said, I've been halfheartedly working on a setting in need of a system and yours looks super-interesting so I'm looking forward to diving into it.

I've started working on a setting initially using D&D assumptions to help me work through some of the initial worldbuilding.

Thinking about using Forthright for the next round of development.

The coupling to D&D is very loose, so won't be difficult to eliminate altogether.

What's the latest on the Forthright Toolkit for those of us not following on Facebook?

Thanks for asking! Right now the Toolkit is a whopping 33,000 words and is in the process of final tweaking. I'm anticipating the text will be finished in Q4 and we're aiming for Q1 2020 for publication. We may go Digital first and POD later in order to make that timing.

Much of the summer was spend "proofing" our Boosts to make sure they were properly balanced (there are currently over 400 Boosts listed in the Toolkit). We've also merged all the Splatbooks we were expecting to write (Psionics, Magic, Vehicles, Horror) into the Toolkit to make sure it's been worth the wait.

Speaking as a proud papa, the Toolkit is practically FORTHRIGHT 2nd Edition. It's going to be super-sweet and I can't wait to publish it!

Nice, especially pleased to hear about Psionics, Magic and Vehicles in the mix for this since I'm working on a science-fantasy setting.

Moar powerz is always gud, too! ;)

Imagen escaneada
Estos productos se crearon escaneando una edición original impresa. La mayoría de los libros más antiguos están en este formato de imagen escaneada, ya sea porque nunca tuvieron un archivo original de diseño digital o porque el editor ya no lo tiene disponible.

Para crear las ediciones de descarga en PDF, cada página se ha procesado con un software de reconocimiento óptico de caracteres (OCR) para tratar de descifrar el texto impreso. El resultado se coloca de forma invisible debajo de la imagen de cada página escaneada para permitir búsquedas de texto. Sin embargo, es muy probable que los textos de libros que estén impresos sobre un fondo gráfico o en fuentes escritas a mano no sean reconocidos por el software OCR y, por tanto, no formen parte de los resultados de las búsquedas. Además, algunos libros más grandes pueden ser reorganizados para que se adapten al sistema y puede que no tengan ese fondo que permite búsquedas.

Para los libros impresos, hemos realizado escaneos de alta resolución de una copia física original del libro. Esencialmente, hemos remasterizado digitalmente el libro. Por desgracia, la calidad resultante en tales libros no es tan alta. Es el problema que tiene hacer una copia de una copia. El texto se puede leer, pero las ilustraciones empiezan a verse oscuras, pixeladas o carentes de tonos de gris. Las fotos pueden desarrollar patrones moiré. Especificamos claramente qué títulos impresos provienen de imágenes escaneadas de libros, para que puedas realizar una decisión de compra informada acerca de la calidad de lo que vas a recibir.

Formato original electrónico
Estos ebooks fueron creados a partir de los archivos originales de diseño digital y, por tanto, se pueden realizar búsquedas en todo su texto. Además, el tamaño de archivo tiende a ser más pequeño que el de los libros de imágenes escaneadas. LA mayoría de los libros más nuevos están en este formato. Tanto las versiones para descarga como para impresión de estos libros deberían tener una gran calidad.
