So #Modiphius have announced they are making a new #Discworld tabletop #RPG, which is two of my worlds colliding. The old GURPS-based one was last published in 2016.
I’ve only played or read a few 2d20 games and I’m not sure it’s a good fit for Discworld. Then again, while 2d20 has mostly been used for games with a heavy action and combat element (Conan, Fallout, Dune), the system could be tweaked to de-emphasise that. But I do think simpler and narrative-first would be best. (1/3)
