Hey, all. Just wanted to let you know that work IS continuing on Ivanhoe
Unbound's various games.

If you're curious about what I'm working on at the moment, check this out:

http://xiombrag.tripod.com/TheFATEofGalaxies.doc

It's a ruleset designed for email play (tho it can easily be done as a
tabletop game), where rather than playing a character, you play an entire
civilization. I like to think it's unusual in more ways than one. Since
it's based on the (free) FATE engine, it's always going to be a free game,
though I might eventually release an at-cost (i.e. no profit to me, you
just pay the POD printing cost) print version at some point.

Also, I am working on the first supplement for Unsung. It's going to be an
anime supplement, based on those old shows, like Robotech, involving mecha
and alien invasion. Most notable, mechanically, is there will be a system
for moving between different archetypes, with different advantages for
each. Your character might start out inspired by the love of your life
(with attendant mechanical advantages), only to have her die (resulting in
another mechanical effect), causing you in turn to burn with hatred for
the enemy who killed her (with yet another mechanical effect).

I'm very excited about this supplement, and those of you on this list will
be the first people to have access to it, for playtest purposes. More on
that later.

... Rock on! I'm so a fan of HTML rules. I think you may be the first person to offer an HTML version with the other media. Great work, Kirt! Mike...
