No matter what you guys finally choose, please don't loose the "A Game of Passion, Violence, and General Skullduggery" line. That's simply perfect. :D
Nice!

I was just giving up searching for that but true, Nemedeus suggested it first (with further explanation behind). In fact I like this one better than just Bastards.

I see RPG products with all caps and exclamation marks as cheap, not really serious products. Frankly, I tend to skip games with names like this. I don't know why, but that's how it goes.

What a true classic movie! :)

I suggested that a long while back (sans the caps and an exclamation mark), but we ended up dismissing it. It would look like we're going for straight shock value.

That's definitely not going anywhere. :twisted:

The floor is still open on this and probably will be until the moment I actually hit "compile" on this draft.

Ha. Nice. Rather sadly, between Blades in the Dark and Blade of the Iron Throne (to say nothing of Flashing Blades, Crimson Blades or Bladestorm) we may need to move away from that particular word.

Bastards' Edge - This could be about edge of the weapon or how SAs give edge to these bastards :)

A few (probably terrible) suggestions:

The Way of Bastards
A Bastard's Life
A Tale of Bastards
Bastard's Tale
Brotherhood of Bastards

Some of these might have been mentioned before.
