Alright, that's some pretty good interest generated for a proposal very much in beta form. I don't really have the time or will to sprint and formulate 90% of the ruleset like I have in the past. I'll be working on sections in piecemeal but really I'd prefer it if we have some viable suggestions from people that are passionate bout seeing an RPG like this rise and succeed. Its an ambitious and unique RPG idea that can only work if we can do the rules right.
