In more exciting news, the third edition of Nobilis approaches at long, long last. This makes me so very happy, and I immediately preordered the limited, signed edition that's available here. Why? Well, Nobilis is almost certainly the best RPG ever made. Don't get me wrong, it's not going to supersede your D&D or your Shadowrun or your Vampire or whatnot. It's not about what most RPGs are about. But it's purely, thoroughly beautiful in concept, execution, and writing. The sheer richness of the ideas involved makes me tingle. And, because it also seems to be cursed, it's been out of print for some time now as every RPG company that's taken over production has gone out of business. I sincerely hope this time it manages to stick around and make an impact. I'm not counting on it, and I intend to hang onto my copy very tightly, much as I've done with both previous editions.
