    "Most citizens are too complacent to question how it is that their lifestyle is maintained." This is one of the most cutting bits of satire Siembieda ever wrote. It's a shame that they leaned more into the Coalition viewpoint as "not unreasonable" as time went on. Yeah, they're worse than the Nazis, but can you blame them? Yes, yes I can.

    I'm glad that the Savage Worlds version seems to be running with the idea that somebody in that world would eventually wake up and say "okay, for real though: these guys aren't the solution, they're the problem" and actually start working on overthrowing them.

    Is the Tomorrow Legion a new thing, or established in some book I haven't read, like those Coalition War books?

    Casey G. It's a new thing created by Fannon in response to what went down in those Coalition War books (which I've only read a summary of).

This is my gaming circle minus my ACKS players. I am such an asshole. Since they're in the big city now, the players really wanted to know if there were any magic weapons for sale. ACKS ain't 3e or 4e though. There is exactly one magic weapon for sale. I rolled randomly to see what it was and... ...it's a cursed -2 sword. So I told the players there's a weapons dealer/fence who's looking to get rid of a magic sword he's gotten ahold of...cheap. Only 6,000gp when usually a +1 item would be 10,000gp. So far they are not suspicious. They're going to be so pissed at me. I can barely contain my excitement.
