So, what the heck am I talking about? I received 3 RPGs from 2 companies today: Villains and Vigilantes™ 3.0: The Mighty Protectors™ RPG by MONKEYHouse GamesBelam Hall/Gruel Truck by MONKEYFun StudiosMore weirdness: I backed the V&V 3 Kickstarter back in '16 and it funded on 9/18/16. Even though, I was supposed to get that back in December, they took their time to get it right and I got it today. And now, some awesome: I had pre-ordered Bedlam Hall/Gruel Truck TWO WEEKS ago. Awesome job, Monkeyfun Dave!

As you wish.
For those of you who have not received your shipment yet, we are working as quickly as our little monkey hands will allow. It's a-comin'.

For the record, I'm declaring right now that I'll be running a competitive session of Gruel Truck at both Gamicon and QC Game Fest next year.
I'm inordinately excited about this.

Mine hasn't arrived yet, either. Monkeyfun Dave promised it would open me when it got here. Sigh. It's almost like a continent is between us or something.

Man, I used to play a whole lotta V&V back in '85 or '86. Are the 3.0 rules heavily updated, or is it still an unbalanced random-fest?

I have only read the first couple of chapters, but I like the universe building built into the character backgrounds. It's not "iron-clad" as far as your background has to be what you rolled. It;s more guidelines than actual rules. With character creation, there is some attention to "street-level" to "supers" to "god vs. god" as to what power level you want your game to be. I'll post more when I have dug deeper into the book.
