Heroes & Hardships RPG Nears 300% Kickstarter Funding

Earl of Fife Games is currently in the midst of a Kickstarter to finance the genre-agnostic roleplaying game Heroes & Hardships. The system uses a d10 dice pool for action resolution and promises hundreds of character options. The project is nearing the 300% funding mark and you can score the 248 page hardcover of Heroes & Hardships for a $50.00 pledge (which includes all 28 Earl of Fife products in PDF) or score just the corebook PDF alone for a $20.00 pledge through November 3rd. You can download a free preview of the game right here and expected delivery is October of next year.
