Do you have any idea exactly when Cortex is coming out?
My friend has bought the Battlestar Galactica RPG thing and he really liked the system. I guess it's going to be real similar.

Do you have any idea exactly when Cortex is coming out? At GenCon, as I understand it. I bought the Serenity RPG for my friend, who was going to run it for us. I rolled up a character for it but we never got to play. As I remember it it is essentially the same as Sovereign Stone. They changed the dice range, so that instead of d4 through d20 as in Sovereign Stone, in Cortex it is d2 through d12 (I guess they thought the d20 was overused!). They also added in plot points, a concept I don’t care for. And, of course, they transposed it from fantasy to sci-fi. I will definitely be acquiring a copy of the Core Rules Book. I don’t anticipate running any non-Fantasy games any time soon, so Sovereign Stone is still probably in most ways to be preferred, but you never know... :-) Regards.
