Kobold Press has entered the open gaming fray with plans for their own open fantasy system. And I thought "Black Flag" was a kind of pest spray ;-P |

I signed up for the playtest packets and I've checked out the first 12-page pdf. My general impression is that Project Black Flag is basically 5E with a Kobold Press twist. Some will dig it, some will not. This shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone because the catalog of Kobold Press products is deeply linked to 5E with their monster books, magic books, and setting books. It makes no sense for them to start over with a completely new rules system that would require their products to be updated. I suspect the currently in print books will be able to be used with minimal or no work needed.

I have so many games as it is (that I don't fully understand the rules of) that I don't buy much of anything "new" these days. In some cases what is "new" is actually something someone else tried BiTD. |

I will be taking an even closer look soon. OT is slowing down to become much more manageable so that means a little extra time. Ugh, it's always not enough time and too much interesting stuff. |

They don't have to worry about the Kickstarter getting funded and they still have 26 days to go!
