Welcome to you heard it here last where we talk about news you’ve already heard.
We are starting this week off with some good news.
Traveller is a 1977 table top roleplaying game that brought science fiction into roleplaying. Building on the success of Dungeon and Dragons introduced in 1974, Traveller dropped onto the scene just before Star Wars hit the big screen, and boy did it make a splash. Today Traveller is considered a seminal work in the world of table top roleplaying. Marc Miller, one of the creative minds behind Traveller recently announced that Mongoose Publishing will be carrying the torch of Traveller if anything might happen to him. This succession plan for the game was important to Marc Miller and even though Traveller has been published by a variety of game companies and publisher, ensuring the future of this beloved franchise was important to him.
And I am very happy to hear this.
Christina, I know that Sci-Fi is one of your jams. What are your thoughts?
[Kick to Christina]
Mike, since I already invoked Star Wars, what do you have to add?
[Kick to Mike]
Next up in news is another little Kickstarter project you might have heard of.
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/foundryvtt/ember-rpg?ref=724lwv
Ember by Foundry VTT.
This little project dropped on September 3rd with a goal of 10,000 dollars. In two days, they had already 232,000 dollars. It runs until October 3rd, so this is one to keep an eye on.
What is it.
Well, Foundry VTT has taken all the updates and lessons they have learned running a virtual table top and put all of those bells and whistles into their own virtual table top system. This is a new game setting and rules systems that will allow you to play table top games with your friends in a virtual setting.
And it will work with D&D 5e.
Mike, I know you have been a big fan of Foundry for a while. Why is this different from what they already do?
[Kick to Mike]
Christina, I know you prefer simpler VTT’s, what are your thoughts on this?
[Kick to Christina]
And there you have it, Tune in next time for all the news, you’ve already heard.
