I like the loose style of the Wushu Guides. They are trying to give tips how to emulate a certain genre with Wushu. The same style is used here, but as this is a game of its own it could use a more detailed discussion of the player perception / madness vs. "objective" reality.<br><br> <b>LIKED</b>: - fun to read<br><br><b>DISLIKED</b>: - no page numbers

  • could use a more detailed discussion of the madness vs. reality<br><br><b>QUALITY</b>: Acceptable<br><br><b>VALUE</b>: Satisfied<br>

it s not really a wushu supplement and it could fit to any other system. with many advices and conspiracies. Yeah all characters in the fringe could be insane, but what if it was true and their trues goals are protect or open the eyes of anyone... In the end it will the GM who decide :).<br><br><b>LIKED</b>: - many conspiracies that you could mix up.

  • the fun to play the insanes in the Terry Gillian kind a way such as Brazil or Fisher King<br><br><b>DISLIKED</b>: - no stats, just many exemple of play.
  • once again, just one image from the french wushu edition.
  • hard to set for french audience<br><br><b>QUALITY</b>: Acceptable<br><br><b>VALUE</b>: Satisfied<br>

An interesting departure from the usual Wushu fare.<br><br><b>LIKED</b>: Plenty of source material on Fort-esque modern conspiracy and weirdness. An interesting idea of how to re-interpret the Wushu mechanic.<br><br><b>DISLIKED</b>: It's somewhat patchy - doesn't really feel like a complete game. Not for everyone.<br><br><b>QUALITY</b>: Acceptable<br><br><b>VALUE</b>: Satisfied<br>

The Fringe is cool in a very twisted way. The system is rules light and narrative based - anyone familiar with Wushu will know what to expect. The premise is intriguing and reminiscent of Man of La Mancha thinking, but set in the modern day - the PCs are heroes driven by their delusions - they may achieve much in the real world, but they act and react in accordance with their own peculiar world paradigms. While Don Quixote tilted at windmills thinking they were giants, these modern day protagonists may belive they are fighting conspiracies, aliens, ghosts or anything else they might think of. Highly recommended. <br><br><b>QUALITY</b>: Excellent<br><br><b>VALUE</b>: Very Satisfied<br>
