Roll20 and Roleplaying

Brief update since it's been a week.

1) There are a number of typos and layout mistakes that need to be fixed. I am holding off right now because I start playtesting this weekend, and I know that will generate more edits. Will most likely release a cleaned up and tweaked rulebook in about 10 days.

2) I am spending most of my time working on the Roll20 character sheet. One of the main sheet designers for Blades in the Dark released a tutorial on how to adapt his sheet for other hacks. I have been working on editing the first document of about 4. It started at 20 pages, when I cut out the Blades specific material it was around 7 pages, and now I need to fill in the equivalent of everything I cut which will likely exceed 20 pages.

So the sheet will look awesome when done, but will likely take multiples weeks or months to finish.

3) Mr. Johnson, from the awesome Arcology Podcast, interviewed me about the system and will be releasing the podcast soon. I don't think I can bring myself to listen to my own voice (also it was my first time talking about my game) but I will link to it once it goes live. It was fun talking to someone who also loves Shadowrun. It also helped me get better insight into the experience of people who have never played a Forged in the Dark game when they look at Karma.

I am super excited for playtesting. Watching the group brainstorm ideas for their characters is a fresh reminder of why I love TTRPGs, and why I keep working on this game.
