I'm really excited to say we're FINALLY ready to launch the next GameMaster's Apprentice Kickstarter in the next few days (I'll repost the live link in this thread when we launch, to avoid duplicating), which is for a Cyberpunk theme deck--and also to completely replace and update a number of the randomizers on the cards!

Check out the pre-launch (or later, the launched) campaign here!

The biggest changes are:

  • Changing the yes/no oracle to include "Yes, but..." and "No, but" by adding "Yes?/No?" results. I'm also changing the balance of answers, so there are more YES!/NO! results, so the ratios provide fewer basic Yes/No and more complex answers.

  • Replacing the Elements and Norse Runes with random icons for visual interpretations.

  • Adding descriptive character traits and goals/"stakes" to the text on the bottom of the cards.

  • Probably replacing the 'tag symbols' with map-generation content, including dungeon geomorphs.
