Naomi Novik's Temeraire stories get the Kickstarter TTRPG treatment!

[thewayne]

Naomi has licensed her work and it has borne fruit. A tabletop RPG has been produced by Magpie Games and has been released on Kickstarter. And is now fully funded! The campaign has 30 days to go, over 800 backers, and the $50,000 goal has exceeded $111,000!

You can get the digital-only edition for $29.

As a quick description, think the campaign against Napoleon - with dragons. Mainly from the British side. There's a good description on the KS page. The dragons speak and are very intelligent. There are several books in the series, I don't know how many as I kind of fell off the wagon.

I thought the first couple of books in this series were quite good, but like you Donald and I quit on the series eventually.

I was enjoying them and would like to get back into them, just too many other things to read.

Not a video game player, but Britian against Napoleon with Dragons?
Sounds like fun. :)
And this is based on a book series? Sounds good. :)

Not a video game.  Everybody has dragons, IIRC.  It's fun, I'd definitely recommend the first couple books, though I don't remember them too well.
