I'm helping Ed write one of upcoming Kickstarter titles, After The Horsemen - Quick Play. The game is played with all cards. It will be quick to set up and play with very little space needed to play. You get the same narrative story as with the other THW games. After the Horsemen is set in a post apocalyptic world. Your Star will be interacting with 4 factions, Sheeple, Survivors, Cultists and Gangers, each will have their subtle differences. The other cool feature is that encounters take place in different Locales, Edge of the Wasteland, Towns and Cities each with various buildings. Each Locale you enter will be different every time and only takes seconds to set up.
Here's a Batrep:
Being out in the Wasteland Billy Pink knows he must consume at least one Food each Encounter. Carrying only one Food, he selects to go on an Explore Encounter hoping to find more Food. He rolls 1+1/2d6 and scores a 4. He needs to resolve 4 PEFs out in the Edge of Wasteland Locale.
1st PEF - he manages to gather one Food.
2nd PEF - he meets a mountain lion. Billy wins the Action and fires two shots with his BA Pistol and hits. The mt lion becomes OOF. Billy successfully converts the mt lion into 3 food. He consumes 1 food to satisfy his requirement for the Encounter.
3rd PEF - Billy continues exploring and discovers a Farm. He enters the Farm Building and meets one Cultist. During Interaction Billy and the Cultist score the same. This results in the Cultist attempting to brainwash Billy into joining the Cult. The Cultist initially succeeds but with the use of Extraordinary Effort, Billy is able to save himself from being brainwashed.
4th PEF - Still in the Farm House, Billy meets a Ganger. Fortunately, they have met before and are on good terms. Billy asks if he wants to barter. The Ganger reveals 1 Luxury Item and 1 Party Favor. Billy trades 1 Food for the Party Favor thinking it will come in handy in future interactions.
Before leaving the Farm House, Billy checks with the owner to see if he has anything to barter. The Farmer reveals two Luxury Items. Luxury Item are worth 2 Items each. That's too much for Billy. He decides to keep what he has and leaves.
Billy successfully completes the Explore Encounter and gains 1 Increasing Rep Point and another 1 point for causing the mt lion to go OOF. However he used Extraordinary Effort so he only nets 1 Increasing Rep Point.
