a.k.a that obscure racist rpg with spandex Nazis and evil POC got a new campaign book today.
Does anyone have a PDF? What's your first impression? And did it add anything noteworthy beside a new story line?

>What's your first impression?
I want to like this game, the setting seems really interesting, but the writing style is one of the worst I've ever come across in an RPG. The fact that everything is written from a semi in-character perspective, combined with the vast amount of setting-specific terminology, makes it almost impossible to pull any solid information out of the text. Which is frustrating because I really like the bits I've been able to decypher, but I just can't get into the fluff enough to come up with a character or story I like.

I know you're joking, but aren't the spitalier or whatever they're called polish? And some of the player factions are brown people? And a lot of the mutants are white?

I like the idea of writing lore through military reports, backwards sources, rumors, unreliable narrators and so on - it's a novel way to emphasize how the world really collapsed and there's no general consensus on what actually happens in the world. It's also good to leave some things vague so you can interpret it yourself, which could make all different kinds of stories work in the setting.
However I agree, it's all over the place and it's simply frustrating to find what you're looking for at first.

>aren't the spitalier or whatever they're called polish?
They are most Borcan (Germans), but there's some poles and others.
>And some of the player factions are brown people?
What do you mean? Are you referring to different shades of white or blacks? Because both are present in the world.
Pic related, majestic Neolibyan ready to explore your culture.
>And a lot of the mutants are white?
I guess. I don't think I saw artwork of black mutants.

Africa doesn't have any Aberrants because they've got the crystal plants instead. Although the anubians have something really funky going on.

Cool didn't know they was even planning to have that come out in english I still have to get around to checking out any errata for that core but then check this out.
Jacob Hughes
so it finally came out.
This time I will remember to buy the hardcover.
Forgot to buy In Thy Blood book (tho got pdf from share thread) and I kinda want to own whole set.
Mostly because these books are so fucking pretty.

Can you give example of type information you have hard time to find?
I find the books generally easy to parse for bits and pieces.

I refuse to believe no one has TKG PDF
