Legends Walk! - ancient and modern superheroes
Legends Walk! is now finished and available as a 1.5MB shareware pdf (169 pages, no art) at www.legendswalk.co.uk.
It's a supers game where powers come from the gods, heroes and monsters of mythology, which gives it an interesting twist. The system is quite simple, particularly for a supers game, based on variable pools of d6 and counting successes. Character creation is point-based; choose a programme for your Source (Balder, Manannan, the Hydra, etc) and pick 1-3-point options from those available. There are point pools for making that extra effort (extra die) and reflecting accumulated "luck" (rerolls, lucky breaks, experience). The default setting's a 2020 Earth affected quite a lot by the presence of metahumans, but the system can be used for other settings.

Tim,
It's cool - everyone gets one plug. (Plus, I told you to plug this morning.)
If you have any interesting stories from play of "Legends Walk," you might want to go to the Actual Play forum and post them.

Any opinions yet? I've had a couple of obvious mistakes/omissions pointed out, so there'll be an errata page on the site shortly. (sigh)
