This is a great companion with the flaw system discussed in the UA.
LIKED: The variety of flaws and how easy I can customize them for pcs.
DISLIKED: I would have liked to see more non combat flaws. I also would have liked to see more flaws for other classes.
QUALITY: Acceptable
VALUE: Satisfied

Thanks, Nate. We will try to come up with another batch soon, possibly focusing on spell-casting classes this time. |

If it looks like Super Heroes on the cover, I will buy it, and have. I love RPG's, and I love Super Heroes, and have played many different RPG Supers games.
It is amazing how so many game designs equate complexity with quality. Unfortunately in the world of comic book Super Heroes this is especially true. In a genre clogged with games systems that range from simply overly complicated to down right unplayable, BASH is a welcome and refreshing change. Points based? Yes. Full of options? Yes. Complicated? Not at all! (Hurray!)
BASH has all the strengths of a good Supers RPG with none of the weaknesses. Character creation is as fast and easy as any that I've seen for this genre without sacrificing diversity. And the actual game play is easy to learn. A group I introduced to the system were playing like pros in seconds! And it all works!! All of it!
BASH has become my Super Hero RPG of choice. I urge you to give it a try. Buy it! Download it! Read it! And for Goodness Sakes, Play it!! This game translates to the table top the way an RPG should. It's not just a pretty collection of numbers on a page. It is a very friendly, very playable RPG.
The downloaded PDF is actually two copies of the game. One has graphics (some very attractive super hero themed black and white clip art), and one is without (print friendly). So the actual game manual only constitutes about 30 pages. Thirty pages is all that is needed. The BASH system is both eloquent and functional, and it doesn't require additional padding.
This new version of the rules has been reorganized to make it easier to use, and includes a few rules additions and clarifications (and a cover with greatly improved coloring). These were needed and welcome changes. I honestly can't think of a better Super Hero themed RPG, that I have played.
This is the best.
LIKED: Clean eloquent game system! Easy to learn! Easy to play! Great character creation!
DISLIKED: Not one thing.
QUALITY: Excellent
VALUE: Very Satisfied

This is a real time saver. I liked it. If you are late or frantic about getting a game together then this generic dungeon crawl is great. I used it for a side-trek encounter when two of my players failed to attend the weekly gathering.
LIKED: The text page is crammed with info at about 9 pt font. It's packed.
QUALITY: Excellent
VALUE: Very Satisfied

I ran this game for my group this past weekend. Overall we were very pleased with the system. Character creation is easy and quick. The game system was easy to teach to my players and we were off and running in minutes.
This game is Supers-Lite. It is a 51 page PDF download, but it's split 50/50 between a print friendly version and a version with illustrations (all black and white). So there's only about 25 pages of real content.
The Basic Action System uses a few 6 sided dice and it works. I had not played a system like it before, but it is well suited to the genre. Overall characters seem well balanced.
The orginization of the content isn't very intuitive, but a GM who is experienced in reading RPG rules will have no problem finding what they need or filling in the holes.
If you are looking for a quick Supers game to fill a Saturday night one-shot, give this a try.
LIKED: Good selection of powers and options.
Rules-Lite but not dumbed down or watered down.
Quick read and easy to grasp. Easy to convert from the written word to the table-top. Very playable.
DISLIKED: Coloring on the cover was spotty, amaturish... may push some readers away.
Some rules-holes need to be filled in by an the gaming group.
QUALITY: Very Good
VALUE: Very Satisfied

Thank you for your kind words. We plan on releasing more modules for the system that will also include the core rules. We encourage customers to write us with suggestions for new powers, skills, and advantages as well as rules they would like to see in future incarnations of the game.
This is a system that is made to be built upon, and we plan to include our customers in the building process. You can look forward to a new and improved edition of the rules that will address these holes to be included in our next module.
Please note, anybody who buys these rules will recieve a 3 dollar discount on their next BASH product! |
