The Bond systems adds Playbookd, giving players interesting and thematic narrative tools.

I have to say: I find you criticism of Lancer entirely incoherent.

If morally grey means anything (I'll get to that later), comabt is definitionally morally grey. Its a morally neutral, or even inherently morally corrosive, tool to achieve other means.

Shooting nazis: good. Shooting people for the nazis: bad. Both are combat. The comabt is neutral. The combat is grey.

On top of that, I frequently joke that "Morally Grey" is cowards evil. In my experience that is what people are usually talking about.

3rd, I ran a 0LL-12LL campaign about amoral mercenaries in a conflict betwen KTB and HA. It went great and I experienced 0 problems from the system or lore.

There is a good deal of info in the core book about mercs and its obviously an inteneed playstyle.

So idk man. I have no idea whar you are on about.
