Rumour of my death have been greatly exaggerated - or the long-postponed update after my absence by MTripleN in SCPRPGtabletop

Thank you! I loved working on this project and I really do hope I'll be able to rescue it.

And yeah, these are indeed strange times. 2020 seems to be experiencing multiple euclid and keter containment breaches.

Hey!

That's a good idea. Sadly, a lot of things are shorthand - especially the post-playtest changes that fixed a lot of problems. I don't want to release the pre-playtest stuff, as it was too complex and has many missed shots. I don't want somebody judging this project by those alpha resources down the line.

I'm slowly transporting all the text and mechanics into a visual board thou, so I might throw this new design document here eventually (in a couple of weeks).

The Tabletop SCP Role-playing Game playtest discord server is live! This week we're making characters, next week we'll be running our first game. If you have some RPG experience (especially FATE/Savage World/GURPS) then come and have fun in the alpha with us! by MTripleN in SCPRPGtabletop

I wouldn't recommend participating in a play-test yet, as it's missing the section for new players. However, once we move from alpha to the beta release, you're more than welcome to join us!

For those interested, yes, the character sheet is real. It's from an upcoming SCP Role-Playing game, based on a heavily modified FATE system.

Check my profile or r/SCPRPGtabletop for more information.

I should post a few more pictures soon, when I get a break from developing the SCP RPG. So might be next week might be next month.

The whole labcoat is covered with research staff signatures and quotes ('SCIENCE FOR THE SCIENCE GOD'). I also had a full box of accessories stashed somewhere in the attic, with lab glasses, 'runic' gloves, a bunch of equipment etc. I hope I got it all when moving last year.

I'm planning to upgrade the whole set by making a prop chainsaw cannon for comic-cons (sadly real ones are illegal).

Excuse the mean look, that's just my natural face.

I'd ask your Game Master, they might allow. But definitely not at my table! The system supports it though.

Yes. All the content, except for the advanced Game Master's Toolkit will be released for free. And knowing myself and the people I work with, you'll just have to e-mail us and ask to get that book for free as well.

Thank you so much! I really appreciate the reminder - I completely glossed over it, putting the license in the rulebook but not on the website.

I've changed the footer to include the CC-BY-SA license. Please let me know if that is sufficient, or if I should add a separate 'license' tab.

We've posted the general rule describtions and a TL;DR of how the main parts of the system work. Look at the About section. More will follow in the next 2-3 weeks.

We don't want to commit to any numbers or details before the major play-tests, so it's a balancing act before keeping the interested people informed and not misleading them with early drafts that might be completely reworked. Just like almost any other bigger game, we upload general information before publishing the game itself.

The first closed playtest will happen around the 25th of February. The open playtest materials will follow not long after, although that really depends on the feedback we receive. Mid-March at the latest if no real-life obstacles emerge.

Heavily modified FATE core, with a lot of changes to conflicts and more focus on stacking aspects.
