I just stumbled over Troika! and was surprised that is also uses 2 d6 and SKILL, STAMINA and LUCK. So, before I actually order the book I wanted to know what you guys think about it. Worth a try? Any insides?
I especially like the diversion from the generic Fantasy setting that FF has. On the rules side does is fix some shortcomings from the FF system (and hopefully not in away AFF did)?

Ok, so I got the hard copy and it's beautiful and inspiring. While it sticks to the SKILL, STAMINA and LUCK formula , it is like FF on turbo. It is way less complex than AFF. I really like how armour is just a modifier to the damage roll and not the damage. I hope there are some solo adventures coming. For me it has the long overdue innovation FF lacks for a while now.

Hmm. Followed your link. Hard to imagine what it's about without purchasing, but looks crazy mental right enough!
