Yggdrasil, anyone played it?

[Sivrel]

I recently picked up a new (for me) rpg called Yggdrasil. It's a Norse Heroic fantasy by Cubicle 7. I'm curious as to whether or not anyone has actually heard of or even played it before.

 

If you have played it what are your thoughts thus far?

I haven't been able to sit down with a group and play it but here are what I think:

 

-As with another game I've seen by Cubice 7 the artists here need a serious raise. The artwork is beautifully gritty and exceptionally well done.

 

-The mechanics are simple and have an interesting twist however. You see after you decide a character concept you roll runes for your characters fate and these can come in to play for or against you at the player's and GM's discretion.
