As we know, shooting Deep Spawn in the face and dropping fusion bombs on the city where Cthulhu lies dreaming is good, clean fun that shouldn't be left entirely to the Deathwatch. But wait, you say. Dark Heresy's game mechanics are less than ideal by virtue of being the oldest game in the line. What can we do about that?

FFG is releasing a 2nd edition. http://www.fantasyflightgames.com/edge_ ... ?eidn=4265

Like they did with Edge of the Empire, you can download the beta now and get the money you spend for it credited toward a PDF copy of the full rules in the future.

Sorry, but I just had to nitpick that as my physical copy of the EoE beta is staring at me from my shelf. Still though, looks good, but it's going to have to go on the backburner until I can work my way through my recent acquisitions. I always did like the concept behind Dark Heresy, but man the rules needed a kick in the pants, and hey, this saves me the trouble of trying to do an Only War conversion!

So, um, question. Aren't threads like this one and the one about Shadowrun 5th Edition one meant to go in the Gaming forum?

We usually keep pen and paper games in here, at least we have classically. The other forum is more for computerized stuff.
