Has anyone tried the new Osprey RPGs? Romance of the Perilous Lands and Paleomythic?

I see on the Osprey Website that Paleomythic is not available, but you can find it elsewhere. I am just curious about the metrics, mechanics, and any experiences people had with them.

It also looks like there maybe one or two new ones in the pipeline, so if you have any insight there I would also love to hear it.

With many RPG companies struggling or getting axed, I am curious with what Osprey is doing.

Thanks in advance.

I havent seen them yet. But when these were bought up some time ago the paleomythic one struck me as the more interesting game. I definitely want to see what it is.

Hi, here's some info on the mechanics and setting for Paleomythic:

Thank you. The "dawn of time" element intrests me and reminds me of Robert E. Howard's "King Kull". Although King Kull and others had metal weapons and armor which makes them advanced compared to your Paleolithic tech level.
