Hey! I've just realized that I've got an old version of the game but don't have access to the newer version, is this a mistake or am I meant to buy the game again for the updated content?
Hi, big fan of your work, I got a group playing LIGHT right now and having a blast, and a few months back we ran a couple games of Slayers and all agreed to come back to it at some point.
One thing I wanted clarification on, if I could-- I noticed that the Tactician was making encounters trivial with their Execute Plan special action. I know you typically eschew the concept of balance, but I wanted to make sure we're interpreting the class correctly. Can they use Execute Plan as often as they like in a round? For example, if the Blade keeps on whiffing, can they keep on replacing the Blade's dice for their combo? Are there any restrictions on usage whatsoever? I noticed that the description specifically says it's not an action, which is what led to the assumption that they can use it on as many targets as many times as they like.
The group I play with is already quite large (six people) so to make a fun fight I already have to have quite a few enemies, but if a Tactician is using their increasingly enormous pool to make every teammate attack hit and every enemy attack miss, I feel like I'd have to balloon enemy ranks to the point of absurdity.
same here, I got the old version as part of the racial justice bundle and its no longer accessible. Is there any way for us to access the either the old or the new versions?
The old version should still be downloadable using the download link in the bundle. It gave me an error page when I first tried it, but it worked for me the second time I tried it. It’s still the old version tho, not 1.5.
After so very long of loving this game as a text and from afar, I got to run it for a group tonight and had so much more fun than I was even expecting. I ran Alex Rinehart's The Show Must Go On from Harrowing Hunts (Vol 1) and set it in J. R. Zambrano's The Canvas. Truly can't wait to play more and will definitely be working on creating my own Hunts and other bits.
I just bought a copy to run this for my college's tabletop club, I've talked to a few friends who already seem interested. This game seems really good for some of my friends who are less into TTRPGs than me since the rules are so simple, which is definitely a bonus, and at the same time has enough complexity and opportunity to do cool stuff that I'm just as excited to play it.
So, I ran the Lord of the (Un)Dead for two of my gaming groups this week. So GM friendly and the synergies between the classes creates a dynamic flow to combat my players loved. Having run a lot of Drifters you can really see it's influence on this iteration of the system, and that's great. Another great game Spencer.
we recorded a prologue session for our slayers one shot! using a setting from the slayers almanac and a couple third party classes linked in the description! we had a lot of fun, and will definitelyh ave more when we get too combat

Holiday greetings to Gila RPGs! Any plans for further community copies this festive season? Many thanks!

Just wanna make sure we're on the same page.
I got this as part of a bundle in 2020, but it looks like an old version that’s no longer available.

Hello, any possibility on getting a community copy?
Hey everyone! I've made a spreadsheet sample sheet for anyone to use when playing online http://surl.li/fuuvz
There will be new community copies?

I'm so glad you got to play and had a great time with it!
Will there be community copies available again? I really wanna play this but I'm in a rough spot and my currency doesn't translate well to USD :(

Awesome! I hope you all have a ton of fun with it.
I like the premise and the artstyle already. I'll likely pick this up either way down the line, but are there any community copies coming soon?

Thank you so much for the kind words! I'm really glad you're enjoying the two games.
This looks so cool! Is there a solo variant?
There isn't one yet!
This game is rad! It reads so easily and is so well layed out. The design is just excellent!
Hi. I just wanted to ask whether the 'old' Slayers will be updated to 1.5 at some point or if I would have to buy a new copy to receive the update.
Any chance for more community copies?

Very cool!
the hunt session is out
Congrats on the 1.5 release, Gila RPG team! It looks badass. I will definitely give it a try!
thank you!
this looks sick, the timing was a bit inconvenient for my slayers game but i'm hyped nonetheless
If you're checking out Slayers and want to see what's new with the latest update, this video should help!
