Greetings,

I've already contacted Fred in the near past, but as everything is
moving faster now I believe I need to ask my fellow list members as
well...

I'm planning to translate one of my RPGs (currently I have three
published books here in Brazil) into English - and Fate will be my
system of choice this time.

In order to provide the best product for everyone I need to ask two
things in first place:

-Should I list all the stunts and its rules?
The way I understand the 3.0 rules, stunts are optional. I know many
Fate roleplayers like and use stunts, but not all of them... Everyone
can use the stunts of SRD too, so the access to them is available to
everyone, but I digress... I personally always used the stuntless
option, but it's just me...

-Which genre would be best?
I have a medieval fantasy low magic book and an old west book focused
on three cities on New Mexico. So, western or fantasy? Which one do
everyone prefer?

If you have any questions, just ask. I believe this list is the best
way to discuss this possible publishing until we decide to make our
final move.

Warmest regards,

Marcelo Paschoalin

... I'd list the stunts. Those that go stuntless can just ignore them or make them aspects by those rules. We that use stunts will have more to play with. ... ...

The thing about the western niche is that there really have been a lot of games recently that have *tried* to capture the market and failed. There's just no...

"So you are translating an existing setting, but revising the rules system?" Exactly. I don't think it's advisable to try a foreign market using the same rules...

Not having a FATE fantasy setting I would vote for that over western (which I honestly would not use). I would be aware though that the Starblazer group is...
