Age of Ambition: a time of changing

Age of Ambition is one of the many Kickstarter project that have been launched in these days. Tab Creations proposes it, with already five other realized Kickstarter projects that mobilized hundreds of supporters.

What is it about?

Age of Ambition

Age of Ambition is a roleplaying game set in an era of transformation. The social and historical moment when the static fantasy setting we are all used starts changing. The evolution of magic, the birth of technology, social unrest are shaping a new world. The Playing Characters are active agents of this changing and they help creating the future, trying to surviving it.

Age of Ambition

The engine of the game is the Saga Machine System, already used by Tab Creations in his previous works. The system is based on eight characteristics and two mechanics: actions and consequences. A deck of cards or, alternatively, d10s are used.

Age of Ambition is set in the world of Trystell, a world that is walking out of the Middle Ages to enter an Early Modern Era. It is openly inspired by the works of authors such as Joe Abercrombie, Terry Pratchett, Scott Lynch and Brian McCellan.

The Kickstarter campaign

The Kickstarter project has a very low funding threshold, which in fact was easily exceeded and doubled within a couple of days. All supporters, even $1 ones, have access to the full text draft. It is a generous sharing offer, which shows the desire to spread a game that the authors evidently love. Pledges are simple. $20 for the digital version, $40 for the physical version with digital stretch goals. Finally $100 for the deluxe set with manual and physical stretch goals. All prices including physical rewards do not take into account shipping costs from USA.

Age of Ambition

Stretch goals are varied and interesting. Not only adventures, but also new options for characters and campaigns, a poster map, up to the inserts for the master screen and a deck of cards representing possible status alteration given by the consequences in the game.
