Good News: Artifacts are on the way!

By ElricOfMelnibone, in Anima: Beyond Fantasy RPG

Hi everyone, this morning the new Anima Expansion, Prometheum Exxet, was announced on Edge Entertainment home page. It will include more than 100 artifacts, along with rules for creating and forging artifacts, more history of Gaia (artifact related) and "hints for quests", rules for analysis of Artifacts (neessary to unleash their true power), new combat rules with Artifacts, including special Combat Modules for artifact use, price on Black Sun market for most artifacts, new advantages.

I don't know what everyone else things about it, but for me it's really great news! I'm not sure I'm going to use it "exactly as it is written" as in my campaigns Artifact are already "balanced in a certain way" so applying completely different "power level" at some point would be...sad. But sure thing it is still a great compendium of ideas and stuff!

Oh...and wonderful images as always!

Nice. That means the english translation will hit the stores in about five years.

More bits of info:

Prometheum Exxet will be out on 23rd December (in Spain, of course) and will be 128 pages for 30€ (exactly the same as Arcana Exxet).

Now, making the official Artifact rules was something really important, but what I'm really waiting is...

...

GAIA VOL.2!!!!!

I'd be more excited if you told me you were planning on making one of your wonderful translation projects... hint hint! gran_risa.gif

Gawd yes >.< im so peeved having to run basically half a world and flying by the seat of my pants the rest of the time T-T oh well... i hope thay make it worth the wait

As awesome as this is, I can not read the languages it is going to be released in, at least for a while. So it is more of an annoyance than anything.

Yeah, totally with you there. :(

And I'm not that interested in Gaia 2 either. I mean, unless its going to answer the questions that are forced into the meta plot in Gaia 1, more lands with more Mary Sue's and more 'mysteries' that are only mysterious because of withheld info is kind of ... meh.

Well i for one am glad that they came out with another book, regardless of not being able to read it, it shows to me that its not a dead project just yet. I was beginning to fear that no new books were gonna come out. Hopefully we start getting the translated versions sometime soon, I would very much like to have the Magic book sometime before summer of next year. Had been hoping it would come out before Christmas.

This is good news! I was wondering how long it would be before an artifacts book would come out. More books can only mean adding to this fabulous world setting. I hope they keep coming!

The spanish book got released on December 30th.

any chance of getting transcripts of the rules? i would be willing to share in the hum-drum of translating, i would just like to see if there are any other rules i can add to the homebrews that most of us are using
