New Gods of Mankind

Learn what it means to be a
God as you get into a friendly competition with the other members
of your pantheon. Have you ever wondered what it would be like to
be a God? New Gods of Mankind is a role playing game where players
take on the role of young deities who guide their tribes through
the dangers of the world. It is an archaic age with the newer
species of humanity struggling for survival beside six Elder Races
and their ancient Gods. The Gods of the Elder races have a
detailed history with the world and each other. Many wars have
already been fought over people, land, and resources, and mankind
and their new Gods are infants by comparison. Rules for this game
are simple, yet open ended with plenty of leeway in terms of
actions and abilities. Both resource management and dice pools
mechanics are intertwined into a Belief system. Mortal conflicts
from simple one-on-one combat to massive-scale armies are solved
with a simple active opposing dice roll system.

everything in sight. Can you and the Dragon Gods work together to
save your mortal followers? Have you ever wondered what it would
be like to be a God? New Gods of Mankind is a role playing game

this game are simple, yet open ended with plenty of leeway in
terms of actions and abilities. Both resource management and dice
pools mechanics are intertwined into a Belief system. Mortal
conflicts from simple one-on-one combat to massive-scale armies
are solved with a simple active opposing dice roll system.
