Shipping to Thailand is $72 LOL. With All PDF coupon discount the total is $129.99.

A map app would be nice, but I bought a map pdf, I just want a fully readable one like the physical version that I have. 

Hi,
AAA PDF's resolution is pretty bad. Can you update it with Higher Resolution version?

Map legends can't be read, but I know there is a separate download for a readable one. If this is the only problem I would gladly ignore. However, many location on the actual map can't be read too. For example, in Dakori Inkarth area, the names of rivers and lakes can't be read at all.

I attached the image with this post.

Thanks,

Runes in Glorantha are not a thing, notwithstanding the MRQ1 blasphemy. Quest for Runes can be in a mythic sense.

I thought one of the reason to make OQ2 is to clarify ambiguous text so I ask about what I thought to be an ambiguous portion of the rule that should be fixed. I am pretty sure there is no clear statement to specify whether the combination Fighting Retreat and Move in a single turn is allowed. I also pretty sure there is no clear definition of engagement either. But whatever suit your product.

Weapons lists where inherited from Mongoose RuneQuest 1 SRD that OQ was based upon. At the time me and the chaps who reviewed the rules decided to keep the weapons tables as was for compatibility with MRQ1 and because we had run out of time to produce the game ( I was about to become a dad for the second time and I knew if I hadn't released OQ before then it would have never got done). If anything I wanted a much much simpler weapons table than the one currently in OQ, which you might get this time out

Hi Newt,

Glad to hear back from you.

About the weapon list, the one in OQ currently is totally different from MRQ1 SRD. When OQ was still SimpleQuest 0e, the list is the same. I suppose you revising it before changing SQ to OQ. Rapier in MRQ1 and SQ have damage dice of 1d8 while in OQ it's 1d6.

I'm so interest in joining the game! I'm in GMT+7, but willing to do what ever intake to join! If you can take me in Newt, would be appreciated.

My other house rules pick anything you like

All Out Defend: Two Reactions with no Action that round.

Riposte: -25 Parry and Immediately make -25 Attack. Cost only one Reaction.

Surprise Rule as in MRQ1

A few more suggestions:

1. Change the base value of the skills that based on a characteristic +10 to 2 x the characteristic. This will give more importance to characteristics without changing the average starting value. And you may consider revising other skill starting value as well, for example: resilience should be based on 2xCON instead of CON+POW. This will be more consistent with both older and newer edition of runequest except MRQ1. Only MRQ1 use CON+POW as far as I recall.

2. Any size limitation for grappling? Currently, any goblin can grapple a dragon successfully if the goblin have enough Unarmed skill. Is this by Design? May be a character can only grapple a unit that have SIZ less than 1.5 or 2 time their SIZ.

3. Any optional rule to support miniature play? Like bash or slam enemy to manipulate its position on battlemat for tactical purpose. I.E. Bash: close combat vs parry or dodge, if attacker win, the defender move back 2m (1 grid). In case of critical success move 4m(2 grid). Cannot use on enemy with more than 2 time your SIZ. defender make athletic roll or fall prone.

Slam is the same as Bash but use Unarmed skill (body tackle) instead of close combat. And if success the attacker move in to the defender original position.

Or you can use Legend's Bash: every 5 point of damage roll move opponent back 1 meter.

4. Charging increase damage bonus by one step instead of fixed 1D6?

5. Clarify that for the mounted character that if enemy have SIZ equal to or more than the mount. No 25% combat modifier.

6. Using weapon in offhand should increase str/dex requirement to +2/+2 or something. Or else any two weapon player will get largest weapon possible in offhand. Like two bastard sword.

7. Last and least important. Trip Opponent: Attack vs Parry/Dodge if success the enemy make athletic - 25 or fall prone, critical success, enemy make athletic - 50 or fall prone.

I would like to suggest revising the weapon lists. Currently, some weapon stat and price doesn't make sense to me. Why would anyone wanna use rapier in stead of shortsword when a shortsword has the same damage dice and the same ENC, but with lower str/dex requirements, bigger size, and lower price? The same go to club and hatchet which superior to rapier and much cheaper. The great sword is the same as the great hammer just more expensive.

I don't know if any of this has been this way as a design purpose. But if it is an oversight, I suggest a revision as it won't add any complexity to OQ in anyway.

Will you clarify some ambiguous combat rules of OQ1 in OQ2? For example, OQ1 have 3 types of movement: move, sprint, and fighting retreat. Move is a free action, but list within a group of actions that only one can be picked in a round. But the rule never mentioned that whether we can combine two movements within the same round, i.e. fighting retreat then move, or move then sprint. And fighting retreat is used specifically when engaged, but the engagement never defined in OQ. So newcomers may wonder why pick fighting retreat instead of move. And engagement should be defined and clarified that are we only engaged when starting close combat with other characters or is it enough to be considered engaged if we walk pass an close range from active enemy.
