Fallen

Hi again, is there a print friendly version of the books? I printed out everything and the black pages with white writing are hard to read on paper.

Thank you

Is this coming back in print any time soon? No worries if not ill just grab the PDF to PnP.

I’m a disabled pensioner. I’d really appreciate a community copy if you could spare one please.

Also is there a new link to the discord group?

I have a physical copy of this game and i love it so much! There's just so many elements of design that feel fresh and unique, especially the magic system!

However i have two points of the rules im rather confused about: 

1. The difference between Items (UD) and Gear (GD) is confusing. Is gear armour? Weapons? Or other non consumable items such as rope... why are the consumables, which use d6, rolled on a table labeled "gear"?

2. What do skill levels do? It just says they max to four, but only two of the skills (healing and incantation) refers to skill level. Are these the only skills that can be leveled up? But then the character sheet has four sections for every skill. 

I’d love to pick up a print copy but there doesn’t appear to be any on the link in the description above. Is there any way to get a print copy still?

The Discord link no-longer works. Has the Discord closed? I was a member before and now I’m not, but I don’t know if that was me, or the server.

Any chance of more community copied being released? If not its all good, i'll just wait. Sorry to ask but I'm a bit low on funds. I'd be happy to write a review.

I love this game on every front. Just a quick note of support for Hillgraab, the unsung hero of this package and worth the asking price alone. A really great supplement for Fallen (or other system) with great concepts, content and artwork. More settlement/region stuff like this please!

Could I ask for some community copies?

What kind of dice do I need to play this?

Hi! I purchased Fallen through Drive Thru Rpg but it doesn’t come with the world maps/hex map mentioned above? Is that something I’m missing? Is that in the Campaign notebook? Just want to make sure I’m not missing something cool for this awesome game. Thanks!

After reading Empire of the Vampire, I was exactly in the mood to play something like Fallen, I can't wait to try it out with players. After reading the rules, I give it a thumbs up

I'm very much enjoying playing Fallen!

I have a query about advancements and tarnish points starting at rank d6 and having a maximum of d12 suggests that you can only advance 3 times, gaining 1 tarnish point per advance for a total of 3 tarnish points.

However, Bone Grafted and Light Ward both require 4 tarnish points, which is impossible to gain by the rules. Can you continue to advance without increasing your rank (just gaining skill points, ability points or narrative aspects), or did I miss a situation where your rank goes down again?

Dang.  Didn't hit the special price point for the Exclusive Content.  Maybe next time.  Great game and well thought out.

Hi! I purchased the game on drivethrurpg and while building my first character, I noticed that all the skills except Investigation are included on the character sheet.  There are 12 total skills but only 11 listed on the sheet. Is there something I’m missing?

Really nice adding the Hillgraab city, i'll use it for my solo games. Could you publish it in a single page format? Thanks and congrats

Evocative text. Phenomenal art,. Actionable oracles. A setting that begs to be explored. A system that's simple to grab hold of, but grabs right back.

Perplexing Ruins done gone and made a good one.

Hi.

I just finished reading through the game PDF and I have questions and confusions. I hope you don't mind me posting them here.

Overall the game looks great, the layout is awesome, but I found a lot of the text overly terse and confusing. There are a lot of assumptions about play that the reader may not share. There are clearly good ideas here, but they are hard to dig out. I'm looking forward to a more clearly explained final product.

Comments below based on 1.3 update

On p5, the character sheet has a "Place of Peace" and "Place of Disturbance", but I am not sure how to use them. Is it the intention that you get 1 of each from the list on p9, and only those places give rest/fear?

On p5, the character sheet has space for Aspects, which are mentioned under advancing on p18 up — what do they do? Are they just narrative? Do they sometimes give advantage?

Also on teh character sheet, is AV Protection? Why does Health have a line through it?

On p6, if you have gear/position advantage, but 0 skill, is it a normal 2d6 roll, or disadvantage? i.e. do adv/Disad cancel out?

On p8 it says "At 0 (health), make a Luck check or die", but on p10 it says you need to burn a Luck Point to be able to test Luck — I think this is just the normal Luck used on each roll, but I'm not sure.

On p10 on the full PDF there is a formatting error, it says "Succeed and take 2 He Injuryalth & 1" ...

On p10, the rules for Consumables and Gear were not at all clear to me. I had many cases where I was confused as to what Ud was being rolled, because it was not clear (to me) that there was a single Ud per character, rather than per type of item (which I have seen in other games). I think the text here could be improved to make that easier to understand.

Also, since all items deplete at the same time, what's the point in having multiple consumable items? Do they give the "advantage from gear" on p6?

To be sure I understand the rules — you roll Ud on many skill failures, and this can cause all my gear to simultaneously vanish? Similarly foraging can cause me to have more candles or iron spikes? You roll Gd after every round of a firefight, so shooting a few times can cause my armour to break?

On p10 it says only the first 4 items in the inventory are available to use in close combat, does that include armour? i.e. does armour have to be in the first 4 slots to count?

On p11 there are numbers listed by weapons, is that meant to be Harm?

On p11 what is the point of armour with protection 0? e.g. the mask.

Also on p11, characters begin with silver peices, and there is a spot for money on the character sheet, but no prices for items (exepct the horse on p12) — is the intention to just use some price list from outside the game? Given that horses are 10s, it's hard to think of a price list that would be suitable.

On p12 you suggest that firearms will end most encounters (due to damage done, presumably), but the pistol on p11 does less damage than the crossbow, so this seems odd.

On p12, under horses, you give horses a Ud, but (if I read correctly) simply decrement it instead of rolling it, which makes it not a Ud?

On p13, under firearms, Black and Purple's rolls appear to be reversed (at least, if I am understanding correctly — I am not sure I am, the dueling page is very hard to read).

On p15 Lore complication says "lose d6", lose d6 what?

On p20, in the exploration proceedure, players roll Ud on a Miss. On p14 the Exploration skill says to also roll Ud on a complication, and to Suffer the Fate on a miss, but neither of these are mentioned on p20, which is right?

On p24+ the creatures in the bestiary have a Fear score, but the fear proceedure on p9 just says you make a Will test when you face something horrifying, so I'm not sure what the score is for. Is it a modifer to fear tests? Something else?
