Back at it.

Hello everyone, thank you to all the folk who have downloaded the unfinished Kenshi Project and helped with playtesting. I have received fun and important feedback about the game. Unfortunately, life forced me to take an awful hiatus. It was a loss of an entire year of passion. Now that things have stabilized, I am back at it with fresh criticisms and a lot of support. Thank you to those who have contributed to the project. Now is for the important update, a shift in system and perspective. I spent far too much time attempting to make the game a 1 to 1 recreation of the video game. I now see that it was the wrong approach. This is a vastly different medium. This game did not need to reinvent the wheel. I have just added the new rules and changes as a playable pdf for more testing.

The Unofficial Kenshi RPG now runs with a simpler, player facing system. This will allow the Lore Keeper to focus on coming up with fun and wacky situations while players manage all their character sheet aspects. Taking inspiration from games like Mork Borg, Ronin, and Frontier Scum, the players will live in the world as Nobodies simply trying to make it each day in a sand blasted hellscape. Attacks are made against the limbs of the opponent. Instead of levels, they will gain Perks and stat increases that will make life in Kenshi tolerable. Combat will be deadly, requiring both skill and luck. We are talking about a game where slavery can be considered a good outcome. 

The plan from here is to do the following.

Finish the book by adding randomized encounters.

Create a list of Oppositions both beast and humanoid.

Get some more playtesting feedback.

Editing and additional art.

Once these factors are complete, the project will be in its 1.0. From the depth of my soul, I want to thank you. Hippity hoppity, go take some property.
