Elephant in the room questions: Are there any plans for PoD? How does this compare to Troika! as the established indie FF-inspired quirky British RPG? Thanks, the art looks great!
PoD is something I’d like to do eventually, just letting the game settle a bit first. (I'll be honest with you, this is an area where I struggle with)
Compared to Troika!, Spellzard 2e is more focused and fast-paced — it uses 2d6 + stat with damage based on win margin, so combat stays quick and clean. It’s closer to classic adventure/gamebook play.
Troika! leans more into surreal, freeform, and setting-driven play.
No dedicated solo rules right now, but it’s something I may explore later.
Oh shit, I remember Spellzard 1e, didn't lnow there was a new edition out! Seems quite tweaked up, enough but to justify another purchase/page. I'll have to get around to this when I got the cash.
Thanks, bro! Or you can wait for the Spellzard Adventure zine, which is coming up after I have done some illustrations. I will put out a quickstart version of Spellzard 2e for free!
