I was about to say that Newt has been doing that. Now, I think you have to be a backer to get email notifications of those, but he's been doing them fairly regularly.
-
It was called Kings and was short-lived. In addition to its IMDB entry (previous link) you can read about it here on Wikipedia.
-
The PDF (link) is Secured so that's not an option unfortunately.
-
Problem is that I cannot select the text in this PDF. I'd have to retype it word for word into the translator. I'm really not so thrilled with that idea. lol
-
Yeah, I get that. Its just the style they chose obviously. Its copyright date is September 20th, 2001. This has made me wonder if it was written in a different world (pre-9-11) then it was published in... hope that makes sense. I've heard back from Peter (he didn't help develop it, thinks there might be an English translation but isn't sure where it would be) and from Dan who is pretty sure there is no English translation. I've given them both links to the conversation so they may join in. Dan was curious about the interest in a nearly 13yo suppliment of an out of print game. I told him I was curious about the content, that I'd like to know if there was anything unique to the work. I told him maybe others felt that way also but that I couldn't be sure. I'm considering doing the work of translating it myself (like I did with the title) but it would be a word-for-word translation using Google Translate or this Swedish-English dictionary.

The title of the PDF appears to translate to "Ankor for Trudvang" "An Unofficial Description of Ankor for Trudvang" Trudvang is the campaign setting for the 6th and 7th editions of Drakar och Demoner.

I've reached out to the authors and artist (or people with their names: Magnus Seter, Peter Bergting and Dan Algstrand... the middle one is the artist) on Google+ or, in the case of Peter, an artist's website.
-
It has a 2001 copyright on the bottom of the first page and is in Swedish (unable to get a clean translation).
-
Very cool.
-
Have you uploaded 1.2 already? Cause if so I missed it.
-
Right now my focus is on other areas so I'll try to give feedback on this sometime in the future (hopefully not too distant but work rules my days and sleep minimizes time to put into my hobby naturally *wink*)
-
I think some of the confusion is based on clarance's basing this on the GURPS Spaceships line by David Pulver perhaps which has a specific way of handling modules (and limits the # of modules that can be installed) and systems.
-
Aramone, we should compare notes since I'm planning on putting together a similar game... BRP/Legend based, Star Frontiers with some infusion from Traveller. And clarence, I do intend to use your spaceships rules so I'll let you know how that goes when I get that far.
-
I can see both sides of this. When reading on a computer I prefer full page text in my PDFs but on my phone the two column makes for better reading. However I will say it looks crisp and professional.
-
Reading though the book right now having backed it this morning... only critique so far is Size instead of Mass. I really think that calling the trait Mass helped with the flavor of Ringworld and it might or might not be an easy tweak. Definitely would be as a GM so it doesn't matter much, just felt like I'd provide that feedback here. That said, I'm happy I invested in the project!
-
That's very weird. I've never seen that happen.
-
So, based on behavior, PM here doesn't save what you send but it does send as I got Clarance's reply to the PM in the PM views. @Clarance: Cool. Hope you like what I did.
-
I don't see it anywhere though. Its very weird as similar forums show me my sent PMs instantly.
-
Tried sending you a PM Clarance, as it didn't go to my sent folder I am not sure if you received it. Let me know if you didn't. I have the file on my 4shared though I can put the link in the thread here if you'd rather I do that. (I also fixed page numbering, applied some document properties and moved the location of the blank sheet to the end for reasons of personal aesthetics.)
-
I use Adobe Professional to do those changes. And why don't you PM me your email address and I'll do the bookmarking I'm interested in doing and send it to you to see what you think. If you like it you or I could upload it (probably best you as it is really your work).
-
Clarence, would you like a copy of this with bookmarks? (I was intending to do this for myself, but figured I'd offer it back with that for you if you desired it)
-
You rock Rod. Thanks so much!
-
I was thinking of taking Legend and twisting it into a Science Fiction game so I can use backgrounds, Common and Advanced skills, etc. I don't know what it is about OpenQuest but I don't like it as much as I like Legend.
-
Anything you are missing you can pick up here
-
I was wondering if anyone else has tried running Star Frontiers with BRP or some variant of the d100 system and, if so, if they had any parts of their conversion to share?
