Wanted: Playtesters for "Defiance: A Discourse on Civic Tyranny"

Defiance is about insurrectionists in an fictional setting that resembles an 18th century European city on the verge of a violent uprising.

As members of a small revolutionary cabal you may have to murder, steal, counterfeit, forge, intimidate, lie, incite, sabotage, torture and poison for the sake of liberty and justice.

Defiance is in the final stages of editing and proofreading. You will need a roleplaying group of about 3 to 6 players.You will also need approximately 20 to 30 beads of one colour and 20 to 30 beads of another colour depending on the size of your group.

Just like Quentin at the story games forums, I need to know how well the book reads and how well the rules work.

Playtester will receive a credit and free PDF copies of the completed game. Stealing Borrowing once more from Quentin's post, physical copies of the book will be given for especially insightful help.

Playtest reports should be sent to me before the end of August. If you are interested in playtesting Defiance, please e-mail mj-graham at hotmail.co.uk.
