Tentacled Whisperer

ive been on their disco and they seem a good bunch. would be nice to see more in English. ive ported their starter set scenario to SWADEBRINGER as i like their style and Bakshaan makes a great hub.

With the absence of a new Stormbringer and growing tired of Mythras + EoM2 Ive been porting my stormbringer game to SWADE plus the Fantasy companion on Foundry. I think the SWADE rules are great for this kind of game with the exploding dice, raises, bennies etc. Anyone doing anything similar? Main stumbling point at the moment is magic. IE Moorcock specific Arcane Background edges in line with those in the SWADE Fantasy Companion.

Ive got it but theres no follow on beyond the starter set is there? theres quite a good foundry implementation too but all in French.

love the corum stories, thats a great comic. i got this mini last year from a spanish sculptor, painted by the inimitable Duff paints.

I keep hoping for foundry support for MW as it looks the most likely way to bring stormbringer to the foundry VTT with its lack of proprietry entanglements

thanks for doing these. im fairly new to mythras and you cover the points in a clear and concise way. Im busy porting my stormbringer/elric game over to mythras on foundry.

Thanks Marcus. Great to see people keeping the game alive. 👍

re commen ts about racial differences etc earlier in thread, as im busy porting my Elric of Melnibone group to Mythras on foundry something thats struck me is how bland EoM can feel compared to Stormbringer and even Elric! Ive ported over with the EoM2 RQ6 rules with the Magic of the Young Kingdoms book and pretty much vanilla Mythras. Ive got the journal and items all set up. Im now tweaking and tuning a bit. Im going to re-add a lot more race/culture skills, combat styles and equipment.

im in the euro time zone so no use to you but im running Eom on mythras on foundry. happy to share what were doing and discuss. feel free to join our disco https://discord.gg/hzUvYFPt

BTW foundry have a sale on atm 30% off.

I'm running EoM1 on roll20 atm using the hawkmoon char sheet. Could be free if not loading loads of big images. Works well. I'm currently porting to foundry using the mythras sheet. Looks a lot better n foundry tbh. Especially with the 3d dice module dice so nice.

If ever a relaunch did happen please support vtt. Preferably foundry. Stormbringer is a niche game and difficult to get a local group. Our current group has Swiss, a German, Brits, Scandinavians, a Pole and a Spaniard.

I don't suppose anyone has created any foundry resources for stormbringer or elric!?

Prior to rogue mistress we'd played through Whisperers harvest and on fleeing the melnibonean battle barge ghost ship they'd been picked up by pan tang slavers.

They'd recently escaped pan tangs slave pits and needed money so the offer of employment was jumped on. Don't want to say too much in case of spoilers but not sure what you mean?

Some good points. Not sure I agree but certainly food for thought.

Dont you think things like passions etc are there to encourage RP in a rules heavy system and shouldnt be as required in something like Stormbringer? Re magic, have you seen the way corum handles it? id mix that with stormbringer, removing binding and just use a summon and command type approach and stop there.

I'd agree bar the rq comments. Imo that's where stormbringer lost its way. Elric with its dumbed down spirit magic and Mrq1 and mrq2 variants of EoM for example. It needs its own identity else I'll just play rq. For me recently picking up the corum supplement shows the direction stormbringer should have gone. Rq can be quite rulesy. I prefer the more fluid approach of stormbringer.

I also like the idea of cross planar characters. I'd fleshed out the vadhagh Prince from the perils of the young kingdoms, man who sells gods scenario hoping a player would die and they could pick him up. I'd also give the beggar class some love as love having one in the party and see it as a stormbringer staple

I'd agree with most of that. Ambush can be pretty useful though. Maybe it's a play style thing? Variable armour is a stormbringer staple and I wouldn't change it. Imo the best magic system is the one used in corum. Nice and clean. Lots of options. I've ran my current group through stormbringer, elric and currently elric of melnibone (mrq1) for the rogue mistress campaign. Our band of demon hearted mutants is kind of split what to do next, either mrq2 EoM or stormbringer and corum. I lean towards the latter as I feel it flows better. Especially for a Friday night game with beers.

Roll20 has the best coverage I've found. The elric sheet is the best one fir stormbringer and elric. The stormbringer one's pretty broken. For mongoose elric of melnibone I use the hawkmoon one which is good enough.

It was in one of the elric groups. Don't think he posts in the games one. I screen shotted it at the time.

Campaign wise, rogue mistress is ace. I'm about half way through running it atm. Scenario wise I really like perils of the young kingdoms. Game wise I'm using the mongoose elric of melnibone rules based on mrq. But I probably prefer stormbringer plus corum as the default rules set.
