Darker skies -

After weeks of development 3.2 is almost ready to be released! A universal restart is required unfortunately but the new improvements and overhauls to large parts of the game this is the most comprehensive patch since 2.5.
Co-conspiritor Will Bennett is behind some of the most interesting new additions including many of the planet-side vehicles that have been added in the new patch.
Here is an overview of the new additions and edits(that I can remember):

• Penalties for Overuse/failing to cast magic have now been officially defined
• Ammunition has been added properly into the system (despite it being used since 2.7)
• The to hit system has changed slightly, weapon accuracy is now out of 5 rather than 10 meaning that it will be easier to hit fast craft, this was also done to match up to the planet-side vehicle hit system.
• Planet-side vehicles(Walkers, Crawlers and Flyers), equipment and upgrades have been added and costed.
• Additional weapons have been added for increased character diversity, new spears and shotguns.
• Athlete class has been replaced with the new 'Adventurer' class (retaining the same class advantage and disadvantages).
• Class levelled abilities have been added to the system (based on the scribblings I made for the lost 2.9 rule-set)
• The cost of some weapons has changed - Pulse rifle was 3650 and is now 3600, Lightning Glaive was 3600 and is now 3550 and the Sniper rifle was 3550 and is now 3500
• The Phaze claw effect has been properly defined (it was implied and roleplayed before but never specified in the rule-set) - On hit, roll d6, on the roll of a 4+ half your target’s speed(rounded up) next turn.
• Faction descriptions have been changed and increased in depth, a new faction has been added 'The Foxnet Syndicate'
• The 'Turn into a captain' option on each race has been removed and a new section has been added called 'Retainers' which essentially replaces the captain upgrade with a more detailed and useful option.
• The BHI table has been updated to reflect the ships added in 3.0
• The shield and hull mechanics have been explained, the Hull mechanic was overhauled
• New shield and hull types have been added
• Vim abilities will be displayed (they were previously missing from the rule-set.)
• The rule-set has had a massive layout and formatting change to make it easier for the players and GMs alike.

Aya's Chosen: Honour's End (Working title) - 

Development schedule has been decided release of the ruleset is due for March 2013 this date may change depending on how the development goes and the weather when I need to playtest the system.
Each clan and house has been given a toke colour, players must represent this in their clothing, hair and now in their warpaint:
Tribal facepaint has been created for each clan and house.

Serin -	Potenit -	Yal'Kirath -

Website updated, Clasp Re-jiggle planned

The Kiron Games website has been updated to include downloads required to play some of my games!
Downloads are updated as I update and patch games, also any optional or additional content will be uploaded to that page so players can choose to add it at their leisure.
To get there simply click downloads on the sidebar of the new KG website or follow this link.

Clasp Larp system is about to be jiggled, Planned upgrades to it are:

A rebalance of item costs

 Additional abilities in the strategy school

A more detailed look at the factions + Faction ranking system

These improvements will hopefully allow more reactive gameplay.

Broken History 1.0 Release

Broken History 1.0 RELEASED!!!

Finally after a long wait, Broken history is finished (for now)
I've also created some reference sheets for players who have a less than adequate memory like moi!

For more information and links to download the game join the Broken History Facebook Group! 
Partly because I like to get feedback directly from people who play my games, and partly because I want to know who is playing my game haha.

Here is a list of features:

• Full game rules
• Abilities and armoury (equipment)
• Avatar System tree
• Campaign map and campaign system explanation
• Full troop lists for all 4 factions and mercenaries
• Full list of Siege weapons available for this game
• Different game modes for varying situations
• Hours of fun
• Models are high quality but very affordable (I personally get them from here.)

If you want a background on each of the factions, help with your models or a play with my new Hit --> Injure --> Morale Calculator then rock on over to the Broken History page on the KG website. I would post it here but it's a complicated Javascript file.

I'm looking for people to join an upcoming campaign as well, so if you live in the South West of England contact me via my usual means (Google + or The BH Facebook group) and I'll let you in on the location of our test labs xD

Fight well comrades!
