CHIR◈N: AGE OF skirmish

In the latest update we may have fixed any issue with repair, leap, and armor. To start off, the Combat phase as been renamed to action round. With that, you now have two options with it, either make it an aggressive round or passive round. As you may have guessed, on your aggressive round you can only make actions that harm enemies health or stats. As for the passive round you cannot make attacks but rather make actions like repair, leap, drop items. We also changed the rules for some of these actions. Repair for instance, now can be done multiple times on the same round, as long as you gained the skill multiple times. As for armor, there was a scaling issue that we never thought about. It was the reason no one chose armor. Now armor is scaled in a way that makes it more appealing. We also got rid of frames having a limit on what armor they can have. It just complicated things. I believe right now all frames are a little sketchy on pricing. We keep noticing inconsistencies due to over editing and possibly not exporting all of them to the new system. Just a possible error on our part that we may need to fix. Stay tuned for updates! After December we plan on getting all legal forms ready. After that we may start hiring artists to do art for the book. If you are an artist or know an artist that can do well with a very basic sketch style for cheap and fast, please contact us!

The victor ended up having a Retumbo and napalm launcher. Giving them the ability to knock people into their fire and slammed into buildings. As well as the leap skill. We ended up changing the main phase completely, due to leap and repair. However, that is for the next post.

If you are in the 217 area and want to try a new game, here it is! Chiron is aimed towards beginner tabletop player and is open for anyone to come test play!

That was not a fun hour. I burnt myself on hot glue at least 8 times. And I think it's safe to safe I'm not the best at making terrain. But it's presentable!

So much more terrain needs made.

I have two of these going with me for midwest :) it's going to be some fun games.

I’m going to beat myself up and say the books fault.

Since I wont be able to 3d print minis in time for midwest I’m just going to make paper cut outs. Not as fun, but it’s something to play with.

Both of these faction emblems need a little more work but I’m happy how far they are going.

I’ve been freaking out, that’s what. I don’t have my minis yet and I was really looking forward to having them at anime midwest. We aren’t having an official demo or anything, in fact we are just playing it on our downtime. But I was really hoping to impress people with how much effort we are throwing into this. Also the book isn’t formatted OR grammatically checked. So that stresses me out beyond repair. I lost my main graphic artist since she broke her computer, and I’m horrible at formatting and grammar. On the brighter said, Testudo Gaming gained a new member and a new project! Alice Shepherd is her name! She is working on a project called Phsychoscape but might change its name. It’s a very early project but has a lot of potential! It’s a Skill & feat based rpg and has some really unique concepts going for it. It’s an early game so I can’t say much else. 

ahhhh the collective. My favorite faction :)

Some rough sketches of emblems for factions.

/ˈkaɪrən/;Exactly like the old mythological god. The upsidown e with the n makes the same sound as “on”. kai-ron is how most of our players say it!

We are all currently working on cover ideas for the book. This doesn’t fit the rest of the style of the book but I couldn’t just get rid of it. I love the idea of throwing a call back to old dystopian books such as fahrenheit 451. But sadly the rest of the book looks like an old DOS print and that might be what we stick with. Hopefully in the future we will switch to an old torn up book style so we can use this. I’ll be posting more great cover ideas later. After I post a couple more I want to see what the fans think the cover should be. I want to know what you all would like to see. In fact. I'm going to ask right now. What do you want to see on a Chiron book cover?
