Mancer Interim Update
Hey everyone, first of all, major thank you for continuing to support MANCER RPG's release! We are now at almost double the initial funding goal!
This one's just a quick update since it's been some time now without news. I'm working on several different projects and MANCER RPG is one of those that I work on. I've been overhauling a lot of game mechanics lately - the game was initially built on LANCER, but at this point that I'm starting to understand my own worldbuilding more, I've been adjusting the game to closer match it and start making it more unique from LANCER.
This game was made as a magic LANCER hack yes, but the main reason was as a tabletop RPG for my original fantasy universe, that happens to use LANCER as its base. I've also been working on a new visual novel project in the same universe and want both projects to be fairly consistent with each other. The current Regalia (mechs) have also just been 1:1 conversions of LANCER mechs and I've felt not creatively driven enough to do so for all the mechs.
I'm still figuring out a lot of MANCER's magic systems and lore as I go and I want the game to reflect that. There are also general ways I want to streamline and simplify the game more while keeping the crunch, a lot of them from researching LANCER player feedback and reading Tom's own notes about how he would improve on LANCER.
With that said, apologies if your expectation was for a true LANCER magic conversion, or a more generic template you can use for, say, a fantasy mech campaign. But if what I've explained makes sense, do stay tuned for future updates! And once again, thank you for your continued support.
