Prowlers &amp; Paragons is a narration-driven, rules-light system designed to emulate four-color superhero comics. The rules, for the most part, don’t tell you what happens. Instead, they tell you who gets to describe what happens. Both the players and the gamemaster take turns narrating events in the game world. However, there are rules that help determine what characters can do and how they compare to one another. With the streamlined rules, once you know what you’re doing, you should be able to play without ever opening the book. P&amp;P was designed to let you play stories about super heroes who save the world and beat the snot out of villains who richly deserve it. Like so much of the genre, P&amp;P is a gleefully unapologetic exercise in heroic wish fulfillment. http://www.evilbeaglegames.com

An action-heavy tabletop RPG of gunslingers, samurai, gangsters, barbarians, steampunk, and superpowers on the brink of destruction. There is a world beyond our own steeped in darkness and struggling in the aftermath of a divine war; a world where its people fight not only to survive but to amass power, riches, and honour. A place of intense, high-octane wire-fu action set against the background of desert landscapes, high speed train robberies, and mutant warriors battling it out for supremacy.   Nothing is as it seems in this world, and everything is possible. We call it... High Plains Samurai. https://brokenrulergames.net/high-plains-samurai/
