IC: Genesys System, Warcraft Setting

Hey folks,

Trying to see if there would be any interest in a game set in the World of Warcraft world using the Genesys system.

Lemme know!

Certainly interested.  How much of the Warcraft 3 / WoW lore would I have to remember?

Not much as I don't remember much.  I know the high points.  It would be something where players would learn as they go I'd think.

Likely right around the time WoW vanilla launched.

I'll have to read the system*, but otherwise I'm game.



* I'm pretty familiar with FFG's Star Wars and L5R, so this should be nigh identical.

So can we assume that means none of the mechanical changes, ie new classes, new races, and new race+class combos, would not be included in this game. So no demon hunters, no monks, no death knights, no blood elves, no draenei, worgen, goblins, or pandaren, no paladins for horde, no shaman for alliance, etc?

Re: IC: Genesys System, Warcraft Setting

Those things still existed (except maybe Death Knights), but just didn't exist in WoW...

Well... according to WoW lore, the Blood Elves were secluded away in their magically domed and sealed city.  And the Draenei hadn't yet crash landed on the Blood Elf city.

Otherwise, yeah, I think everything else was around.
