I mega love this , Cain has become one of my fav RPG's so far. The blasphemies of the original are one of the best magic compendium i've ever read. And some of the new great blasphemies are amazing and crazy (especially Law , The memory loss and Shake ) but i fell like the blasphemies from Faith , Fortitude and Charity dont ring the bell for me ... Faith basically disables your blasphemies and that is like one of the main atractives and cool parts of the game for me so ...
Fortitude is like faith but instead of making you tankier makes you more powerfull , it doesnt make you lose your blasphemies but its pretty much for a wak-a-mole character build , i dont see it that bad as faith but idk ...
And finally ... i dont get entwine is pretty useless why i would want to entwine white somebody? To be more tankier? ...ok but the bad part make it almost worse whit so little to benefit from and i think it just ads narrative maybe (which is cool) but it doesnt seem to have sense to entwine yourself whit somebody you dont love bc it will not make benefits for the party.
This is just my opinion , the game is amazing and i will give this a try , thnx for reading
Likely not, since this is Toms indie publishing platform. Not really involved in Massif Press.
He also had an AMA where I think he mentioned that content he publishs with Miguel will be halted for now because he wants Miguels involvement in those projects but due to Miguel's job, it's very difficult as of now. So their current solution is to contract other people to produce small adventure modules for Lancer.
I saw a post from him that's I thought said games for freaks would have content for all the games he makes so I ha shopped for Lancer stuff to be there.
I understand there is a separation between CHASM and massif hence why I mentioned in my question will it only be stuff from CHASM.
Was just checking if it's a case of first issue being on Halloween meant he focused on the spooky occult games.
so I bought it, a slight correction to what I mentioned previously right on the first page:
"It’s a semiannual game zine containing content for some or all the games I’ve published. It’ll come out when I feel like it. It might even have Lancer content some day!"
So to answer your previous question, it's a possibility, but likely not for ICON since it's still in the playtest stage :)

Amazing. More a Maleghast fan, but may be tempting my group into trying Cain. Adore the Steeplewracks.
Absolutely love the additions to Cain and Maleghast, as always, top-tier stuff Tom! :3
Does this mean Games for Freaks will be only stuff published through CHASM?
No ICON or LANCER stuff on the horizon in the sludge bucket?
