  1. Are these totally hopeless / purist scenarios? I just ask because my group doesn’t care for that style as much.
  2. One other thing about Deep Magic. I am pretty sure @Nick J.expanded Deep Magic for his Dolmenwood game and I think he typed it up real nicely. You might want to ping him and see what he has...
  3. Now that I am thinking about it there is a rebuilt version of Deep Magic on this site. I have only skimmed it but it looks like pretty extensive changes. You can find it here ->
  4. Yeah, that's what I was trying to say! I am always unclear when I barely know what I am talking about 🙂
  5. I don't have OpenQuest but I have Magic World and have used it steadily for several years now. I have been told one difference between the two is that OpenQuest uses opposed rolls where Magic World uses the resistance table. Another difference is is the way weapons skills are handled. Magic World has a range of weapons you can gain skills in... I think OpenQuest has a lesser number of broader categories which you can gain skills in. You can find a review of Magic World here -> https://www.rpg.net/reviews/archive/16/16300.phtml
  6. I love your channel Bud! Always informative!
  7. I use renaissance pricing from the book “And a ten foot pole’.
  8. I'm not familiar with it. Is it scenarios, fiction or something else?
  9. What are your thoughts on Stormbringers Eastern Magic? Also there is the Magic World Advanced Sorcey. Also what about Classic Fantasy?
  10. A unified powers document is uploaded to BRP Central. It handles all sorts of magic and super powers. It can be found at http://basicroleplaying.org/files/file/516-brp-unified-powers/
  11. Wow! I love the part color plays in the setting. Very different and very creative!
  12. How interesting! I think this is awesome!
  13. Welcome Carew! Glad you joined the madness!
  14. Manor Argyris · Home of a lord named Hesiod Argyris · Brings the party in to investigate a murder · The police have their suspicions but no hard core proof. · Lord wants the party to take a fresh, unbiased look at the crime and report back to him. · The lord’s daughter, Althea was murdered by Oksana one of her servants. · Oksana was secretly in love with a farmer in a nearby town. · Althea had a misunderstanding with Oksana that resulted in Althea being highly offended. · Althea sought to hurt Oksana by having her love arrested on trumped up charges · However Althea didn’t know that the laws had changed and that the sentence for the charges was death. · Oksana’s love was executed. · Oksana concealed her love’s hunting knife and made her way to the manor’s garden and hedge maze where Althea was known to walk alone each morning. · Oksana hid in the maze and struck Althea in the heart as she rounded a corner. · Oksana left the knife which had her love’s initials engraved in the handle sticking out of Althea’s chest. · One of the manor’s gardeners, a lecherous fellow, was pruning the garden when he saw Oksana disrobe near a small cave on the manor’s property and hide her clothes there. Being focused on the naked Oksana he did not notice the clothes she hid had blood stains on them. The gardener has been warned in the past for his wandering eyes and he will not disclose what he has seen willingly for fear he might get in trouble. · Another servant knows that Oksana had an argument with Althea but doesn’t know what it is about. · Percival the scullery boy once saw Oksana walk with her love in town. · Everyone knows that the lovers execution took place the same day as the murder. · The only physical evidence found so far is the knife and a strand of red hair.
  15. Me too. In my current game the only races available to the players are human. NPCs can be human, serpent person or Myrh (person with dragonfly wing). By the way Sean your setting sounds great! Tell us more!
  16. Okay, I like all of it but there are two things that make me extra happy. #1 vast inland seas. Any adventure hooks that revolve around sailing are much appreciated. #2 Four main species that do not include dwarves and elves! Nothing against dwarves and elves but nearly every fantasy setting has them. Human, Frost Giants, Fire Giants and Gek are perfect! Also looking forward to what you do with magic. The few tantalizing tidbits you mention sound interesting.
  17. Probably a novice question but what do you mean by a magic language? Maybe something like the Rune system in Loz's Elric of Melnibone book?
  18. Chris - I need to go back and review. I will try to get that done tomorrow! Great stuff!
  19. Congratulations! In my view you are buying the BEST iteration of BRP!
  20. Revolution D100 has a completely (well maybe its similar to RIngWorld - I don't have that) different skill system and narrative controls. That probably makes it the most different.
