Just reading the description is enough to get me excited! I would love to learn how to run this for my friends so we can all play this together! Will definitely be looking out for community copies :D
Hey! Just to start things over: I love FIST. I'd like to know if there's any rule for facing multiple enemies at the same time, like goons or something. Do I roll the damage of groups of enemies just once? Do their numbers work only as HP multipliers?
Hi! We're working on a rules supplement that will clarify this and some other questions people have had, but in the meantime - we generally run it so each enemy a player is engaging can individually roll damage against them when the player rolls a failure, meaning that an unlucky merc can absolutely be lit up by like ten separate guys at once. Stealth is critical !!
Good to know, thanks for the reply! I'm also thinking about the rule that limits the damage of GROUPS type enemies to their total number, I think there's some troopers with that rule in the corebook. Can't wait for the rules supplement tho!
I notice the font used for FIST is actually pretty similar to the shape of the letters for Forged In Shadow Torch. I keep thinking this tapletop game is related, but it's not.
Won't stop me from imagining the characters as animals, though, since they were in Forged In Shadow Torch, and animals are cool. :p
I just bought this in the bundle for ukrainian hospitals, and while I haven't played yet, I actually printed out the ultra edition and it's SO STYLISH? Everything from the illustration to the font really hammers home the overall themes, and I had to leave a comment for this reason alone.

Any plans for future print runs?
Not sure, things are up in the air right now with the industry being a mess!
fair enough! Thanks for the quick reply

we'll be adding some soon!!
Ooh, thank you so much!! I'll be on the lookout :D
Apologies if this has been asked before, but is there a campaign/adventure or adaptation of FIST for solo players?
We're working on one and hope to release it this year!

What is the body font you use in FIST? I love it.
Space Grotesk with some stylistic alternates turned on (the alternate D, B, g, and y)
Thank you!

funnily enough we only found out about that game after releasing this one!!
Is there an actual "level cap" for how many traits an agent can have?
nope!!
