That would be nice, if well done. Their survey gives me the impression they know nothing about Discworld and hope to get focus points from fans to sell more books. They also seem to have a few big licenses they are cashing in. Does anyone know their work and if it's any good?

I've read a few of the OSR books they published. Hard to judge a publisher from a small set of their catalog tbh, and they have a pretty wide catalog. Especially since I've not actually read any of the licensed RPGs they've put out.

Would like to take a look at the Homeworld and Dune books though.

@Scio @Nariom Modiphius put out very good products. Star Trek Adventures is the best Star Trek rpg created. 2d20 mechanic is flexible. Momentum is marmite, I happen to love it, but metacurrency is a mindset. Infinity is 2d20 with the crunch dialled up. Dishonored blew my mind where they jiggle it so that intent is stats.

All aside, they do licences thoroughly and wth respect. GURPS Discworld plays it straight. A One In A Million Chance At Adventure goes Noir Mystery. They're testing their take.
