Yesterday I got to play a oneshot in the new system Legend In The Mist! It's a fantasy setting with a very folkloric vibe that let me play up my extensive fairy tale experience in some very fun ways. Huge thanks to Runesmith for inviting me in, to my fellow players for making it a blast, and to the game devs Sons of Oak for sponsoring the stream! (Stream vod for those who missed it: youtube.com/live/L4q6ZNs3R3k?si=pTx9dokSupmPK_Ws)
The system was very easy to get a mechanical handle on (only 2D6 needed!) and surprisingly flexible in the story beats it could handle with its rules. Thanks to our Collective Player Shenanigans the story bounced between like eight very different genres, but never in a way the rules couldn't keep up with! Failure never stalled the story, and we got to keep moving forward even if the dice dictated that it wasn't in the direction our characters hoped. And even though it was a oneshot, we got to tap into the advancement mechanics and see how these characters could evolve in future game sessions!
If you want to try out the system, they've got a free one-shot comic adventure called #FindTheRimeThistle you can read and roll through to get a feel for the rules! Feel free to check it out here: sonofoak.com/pages/legend-in-the-mist-free-comic-b… The full rules are also available as a PDF, and are coming to print very soon - if you preorder the print copy you get the PDF rules immediately, and if you manage to preorder it by tomorrow, September 1st, your book ships out in the first wave and should arrive nice and quick!
