This is another bundle, this time for the pirate RPG Sea of Thieves from Mongoose. It's only available until the 21st:
( Sea of Thieves )
This looks like fun, with rules that emphasize cinematic swashbuckling rather than a historically accurate simulation, but I'm probably not going to use them because that's pretty much what Diana: Warrior Princess was designed for. The setting is VERY cinematic, especially the parts that come from the original Sea of Thieves computer game, and I've actually used DWP for a couple of cinematic SF pirate adventures over the years, so I'd probably use my rules and this setting, or something like it, if I wanted to play pirates again. This is actually my main reservation here - there are already lots of pirate RPGs and supplements out there, and referees may prefer to stick with what they're used to. Having said that, this looks playable and fun, and is very reasonably priced. If you're not already committed to a suitable system it's probably worth look.
