Hi again. Finally, after years, I had the opportunity to try the game with a friend, and honestly my sensations after hours of play aren't good. 

One issue (there are many, but let's take just one): the 2024 book is fondamentally broken, 'cause it's missing pages (and rules),for example the Anomalies part. It's missing the rules to find them, it' s missing the consequences of being in them (DMG, etc.), how you actually get the Artifacts, the value etc.

I could say that you probably fixed the game with the new release but I can't be so optimist to risk to buy the game again, and then find something whobbly like this one. 

About other points, some was asked before here in the comments, but there several details (and the Devil lose himself into the details 😁) that would benefit from better explanations and additional examples. For example: if my starting armor already gives me 1 DMG reduction, why there are rules like the Wasteland exploration results that inflict 1 DMG? 

Why the Big Iron is still shown as 1DMG during character creation, and 2DMG on the weapons table? 

Etc. Etc.

So, I don't have a good feeling about the creation of a new game "edition" while the actual one is in a bad state. 

Thanks for the attention.

Hi Andrea,

Thank you for taking the time to play and provide feedback.

The 2024 version (Repacked) is a full re-write of the game to better represent, what I believe, are the most enjoyable parts of Courier - exploring, transporting, and the faction mechanics. Things like the anomalies are just not there because they didn't fit the game in a way I wanted.  Thing like combat are fully re-vamped to use a modern system instead of my strange number-crunching mess. The inventory and stat system follows sensible conventions and consistent nomenclature and modifiers.

This version, the original, is absolutely rough and a mess. I was much more amateurish in the design, layout, and writing compared to today. Thousands of additional hours of reading, writing, and playing games across all genres does help me here!  I don't want people to experience something that I don't believe is a fair representation of what is possible with the themes and "world of Courier", so I de-listed this version.

If you'd like a free copy of the new version, please shoot me an email - cody@sleepysasquatchgames.ca

I'd love for you and your friend to experience a much better game.

Sincerely,

- Cody
