Fate/zero [and its shittier cousins] is fucking awesome as a tabletop idea. For anyone not in-the-know, players will be taking part in the Holy Grail War, fighting for a magical cup that can grant any wish. What makes this special is it is a 7-way, tag-team battle royale, to the death. The teams are made up of Masters [powerful wizards native to our modern-day earth] and Servants [Historical Figures, Heroes and Legends, given new life by the wizards to fucking murder each other]. Everyone is then dropped in a little city in Japan and told to go bananas until only one team is left standing. It's using a gestalt homebrew leveling system that makes the classes roughly balanced, so fighting will be fair and will encourage skullduggery and other related types of awesome fun Anyone down like a clown?
