  1. Currently I'm reading the chapter of the mythical maps from Mythology. Such a lovely book! I find them too small, I can hardly read them and it's a bit annoying because I like finding the locations described on the map. It would have been nice if Chaosium had printed those images as attached maps in a larger format, an A3 for example. Will they be at some point available for printing? I have searched the author’s website, Francesca Baerald, without success.
  2. This is a very exciting thread. I have lot of trust in the BRP community. Personally, I would like to see creative and inspirational stuff. Anyone with the BWB can put together a game in a generic setting. And play memorable games but this type of publication aren't very inspiring. Instead try to capture that something wonderful that turns a game in something special. Think Call of Cthulhu, Runequest, Lords of the middle sea ... That something out of the box is the kind of publication I would like to see.
  3. I'm thinking about writing some stuff about power systems design but need improve my writing skilll at least +20%
  4. LotMS fits our table tastes perfectly. And the game system previews sound promising.
  5. The gold reference on the leatherette edition has stolen my heart 💘
  6. BRP and D20s feels very different at the table. For fantasy settings Magic World is a great starting point. Notice that BRP has two main fantasy "specialities" , the runequest one and the elric/stormbringer one. Both are great foundatons for tweaking and get the appropiate set od rules for your table needs.
  7. In spanish, Villa y Corte by Nosolorol or El Capitán Alatriste now discontinued.
  8. In a battle context, individual experiences have more interest from a narrative/dramatic point of view. A simple way for battle resolution if you like uncertainty could be a battle roll modified by other passions or skills.
  9. While waiting for my brand new BRP leatherette edition I would like to talk about a couple of settings for my table. No boring business stuff here. Just DIY fun. Makondo is a post-apocalyptic setting in the Latin America that never was. It mixes elements from science fiction, cyberpunk and magical realism. New Tanelorn is a failed city project dropped somewhere in Brazil. Jungle has regained some of the land lost since the collapse of the city. The characters will face neon beasts, ancestral cults and emancipated AIs in frenetic, action-packed adventures. Kybernetike is a setting located in the Tanaraiko archipelago. It´s a mythical place influenced by recent readings like Robert Graves' Golden Fleece, Nancy Peña and Blandine Le Callet's Medea, or Joseph Campbell's Goddesses: Mysteries of the Feminine Divine with a twisted vision of situationist psychogeography. So, what settings are you preparing for your BRP games
  10. I think SR must be in. Links character, iniciative and weapon characteristics in a symplistic but elegant way. It's a crunchy subsystem that we use in 1/10 of our games but is part of the BRP DNA. And gives sense to statement of intent.
  11. CAR×5, difficult and special success IMO. There's no problem for home use and DIY approach but for legal and business stuff better contact chaosium crew.
  12. I really love the toolbox perspective from the BGB. You can configure a really streamlined game or a really heavyweight one up to your taste or your table needs. Cover art shows a Vitruvian swiss tool man. I'd like an update that includes lastest options like, CoC's 7th push your luck, characterists x5, RQG's passions, reputations, personality traits like runes and more power magic options. Jason has my trust.
