The Genesys Project will go live on July 12th... that's a Friday. We are fully on schedule to do so. Lots of things are getting ramped up for this.
There are 5 Domains of Life in the Genesys Project. These domains are where you start to build your faction and each domain creates their factions differently from each other.
The 5 Domains within The Birth of Genesys- 1st Age;
- Humanoids
- The Fey
- Reptilia
- Biests
- Insekt
Each Domain has it's own section in the book, essentially it's own manual.
Lets take a look at the Humanoids....
The strengths of Humanoids are their ingenuity, their drive for domination, and their sense of purpose. Humanoids have the capability to invent wonders and marvels beyond what is thought to be possible.
Right and Wrong and Good-versus-Evil are a large part of the Humanoid drive to conquer and subject other species to their will. For Humanoids, Good and Evil are subjective. Religious motivation, wealth, and power tend to influence Humanoid morals to fit within the species’ goals of dominion. Above all else, Humanoids are righteous in their determination – all who do not bend to their version of what is right must fall before them.
Creating your species there are just so many themes to build into your factions. Northmen Berserkers, Spartan or Roman Legions, and many in-betweens are possible from going historic or high fantasy. This includes the tactics and possibilities that are included in the game.
Humanoids are by far the most popular of the Domains. Quite possibly this is because of the many cross-overs. Orcs for instance may take Biest Kingdoms, tying deeply into the bestial roots. Or you can create a Feyborne, tied to the Spheres of Influence from the Fey.
The Humanoids also delve into the magical powers through Wizardry, Sorcery, Faith ,and more. Forbidden Lore is an option for them to really push into the realms of possibilities.
One of the things that a friend of mine said.........
In the Genesys Project. "Your faction is not fitting into someone else's ideas of what Dwarves are." Instead you decide.
Do your Dwarves live in mountain fortresses with riches and advanced armor and weapons? Do they use magic? Sorcery? Faith Magic? Do they use monstrous mounts, like Huge Bears or even Dinosaurs? Are they Feral... , do they have great Commanders and Heroes, slaves, Giants?

The choices are yours.
Speaking of Dwarves..... there are great places to find Dwarven Miniatures.
(Great Companies supporting the Genesys Project and allowing us to use their Miniatures). We are getting great support from many gaming companies)
