Hello All
Apologies for asking a couple questions that may have simple and obvious answers.
I want to rebuild an old 3X game in BRP. What are the best resources to emulate that feel?
I haven't played Runequest and I realize that may be one obvious low hanging fruit. But I'd like advice. (Near horizon unreleased material counts!)
Here is what I'm shooting for:
Years ago I ran a fun campaign in D&D 3.5. The concept was a world setting with the Roman, Norse, and Egyptian Gods each with their own archetypical fantasy nations in a constant state of tension. Then the Great Old Ones start to emerge and tense rival nations become allies of need. Adventure follows.
Fast forward a couple decades and I've been enjoying Pulp Cthulhu a lot lately. And that old campaign sprang to mind when I saw the BRP update. I'm not stuck with D&D spells or anything like that. But I would like to have a fairly high fantasy setting with wizards and warriors and clerics or whatever, but with the CoC core, including sanity. I'm thinking Pulp C is CoC with a bit a extra juice, and I want this campaign to be more in to 30% to 50% of the way to D&D feel. Maybe even more. And I think BRP gets me there.
What resources will create a toolbox for me?
Thanks much!

Thanks much!
The Classic Fantasy Imperative looks perfect.
And, yes, I definitely get that BRP and D20 will feel different. That's why I want to take this particular campaign in the BRP direction. 😀
And thanks for the site plug. I'll check it out!
