 Stormwild Islands (Tabletop Game)
comment
Stormwild Islands is a Gaslamp Fantasy Tabletop Game published on September 1, 2023 by Alexander Kirk.Set in the Stormwild Islands, a cluster of islands in the middle of a perpetual, continent-sized storm, this game explores the aftermath of a generations-long war and the magical damage done to the world as a result.Spellcasters are commonplace, and they work alongside new innovations like steam engines to create a world that changes very quickly. Golems - humanoid constructs with minds and wills of their own - have been instrumental in bringing about this new wave of industry, but their use in the war and their newfound push for independence might be even more significant. Alongside all of this is a world of spirits, otherworldly creatures who think and act according to completely different rules, and mixing spirits with humans or golems tends to cause all kinds of clashes.Available on itch.io.

Spell Blade: A viable playstyle, as several actions exist to increase the damage of weapons. Taken literally with the feat of the same name.

Counterspell: An action by this name is available to the Disjoiner skill. The Anti-Mage NPC class can use a variant of it as well.

comment
Non-Health Damage: Drain is a special type of damage that hits MP instead of HP. Though if the target has no MP to lose, it behaves like normal damage again.

All or Nothing: Fittingly, the name of an action available to the Brutalism skill, which maximizes the value of all damage dice on hit but slows down their attacks for an entire turn if they miss.

Turn-Based Combat: Combat is divided into rounds and further into turns. Most characters take one turn per round, though some difficult enemies can take two or even three.

Bizarre Human Biology: A result of excess magic leaking through from the Fontlands. Humans can be born with unusual features, ranging from unusual skin and hair colors all the way up to wings and tails.

Invisibility with Drawbacks: Invisibility is available through various means, though usually with some kind of limitation. For example, the version available to the Illusion skill ends when the target makes any attack or casts any spell.

Boring, but Practical: All characters can make standard attacks, both with weapons and with spellcasting focuses. These have no special properties, but they ensure that all characters can contribute to their team's damage output.

comment
Mage Marksman: Thanks to a lack of Fantasy Gun Control, this is a possible playstyle. The Pursuit skill even encourages this, as one of the spellcasting focuses given by this skill is also a ranged weapon, and most of their actions can be performed equally well with either type of implement.

Combat Clairvoyance: The Foresight action, available to the Warmastery skill, makes all attacks within the user's sight automatically hit and deal a fixed amount of damage. This removes most randomness from the combat for a time, making planning much easier.

Carry a Big Stick: The Great Club and Colossal Sword weapons. Despite the name, the latter deals blunt damage, presumably because it's too big for its sharpness to matter.

Attack Failure Chance
 Stormwild Islands (Tabletop Game) / int_71a069f1
comment
Attack Failure Chance: Most actions have a chance to fail. Attack rolls are made using a twenty-sided die compared against the target's defense stat (Evasion for weapon attacks and Magic Defense for spells). Some actions instead require the target to make a saving throw, reducing or eliminating the action's effects with a good enough roll.

Magitek: The Stormwild Islands are described as being roughly industrial in terms of technology, but with magic often taking the place of electricity or steam. As an example, travel between major cities is facilitated by both rails and teleportation gates.

Charles Atlas Superpower: The non-spellcasting combat skills can still achieve superhuman feats, like Mighty Leap and Impossible Theft. The setting information suggests that such feats are at least partly magical, though most people in-universe do not consider it as such.
