Well after many more months than I would have liked, I have finally finished the next chapter of my Middle-earth BRP project. Chapter 9 covers the player character races of Middle-earth, the "Free Peoples".
Currently it is with the Travelling Beatle and he will arrange for it to be loaded onto the Downloads section in the coming weeks. It's around 16meg is size.
The next chapter I am working on currently is the Magic chapter. No eta for this one at this time.
Cheers,

Keep up the excellent work :thumb: :thumb: :thumb:

The Cubicle 7 Forums (and entire site) have been undergoing some changes (along with the company as a whole in the last few months). We should be getting the Forums back online in the next few weeks though.
Hey Angus,
Great to have you lurking :thumb: Is there any ETA on the Dr Who game?
Cheers,

This looks excellent. I'm looking forward to getting it. Have to go through Chaosium though as I'm on the other side of the world
Will it be available through Chaosium as a dead free version, pdf or both?
Cheers,

Alephtar Games to print massive BRP sourcebook.
Press Release from Alephtar Games
"Alephtar Games acquired this year a non-exclusive license for one of the most glorious Roleplaying Games ever: Chaosium's Basic Roleplaying. This classic game system has been the foundation for some of the games players loved the best: Call of Cthulhu, Stormbringer, RuneQuest and others. Basic Roleplaying is now living a second youth after the publication of a revised, Deluxe edition that finally assembles all of its incarnations into a game that encompasses all genres and styles of roleplaying".
"Continuing our tradition of historical settings with a Fantasy flavor, the first product of our BRP line will be "Rome: Life and Death of the Republic", a monumental (pun intended) sourcebook by the talented British author Pete Nash. But many more will follow!"

Chaosium.com: News - BRP Adventure Contest
[bRP Adventure Contest
Contributed by Dustin Wright on Thursday April 2, 2009 01:49AM
The 2009 BRP Adventure Contest
You Too Can Win Some Chaosium Swag.
We're happy to announce our second annual Basic Roleplaying Adventure Contest. The winning entries will be collected together into a Chaosium monograph to be shared with gamers across the globe.
Our contest winners will receive one PDF copy and one physical copy of the monograph, as well as a $50.00 gift certificate redeemable through our Chaosium.com Catalog.
Here's your chance to see your name in print, contribute to the growing body of BRP material, and win some groovy Chaosium stuff.
Contest Rules
Each entry must be an original BRP adventure between 5,000 - 7,000 words. Text files or word documents only. Don’t submit PDF’s, quark files, etc. Don't worry, 5,000 words is much shorter than it sounds!
Entries must be submitted by July first, 2009.
One entry per individual.
Adventures can be set in any genre you desire (except Call of Cthulhu/Lovecraftian) so long as the adventure is original.
Adventures must utilize Chaosium's BRP system and no other game system.
All entries become the property of Chaosium Inc.
All entries must be in English.
Any images or maps that accompany your adventure must be copyright free. Art isn't required.
Entries must be emailed to dustin@chaosium.com.
Entries must be submitted along with your name, email address, and shipping address.
In the unlikely event that we don't receive enough winning entries to print the BRP adventure monograph, the winners will instead receive copies of all the winning adventures as well as one copy of a different monograph.
Chaosium reserves the right to change these rules as often as we like, with no warning. You can count on the fact that we probably will. Come to think of it, maybe we have already... It's best not to dwell on these things.

I used Word in the past but started using Microsoft Publisher 2007 so that I can move the tables, typing and images around on the screen.

Hi All,
Just wanted to tell you about the monograph I have written for Chaosium.
Jovian Nightmares is a sourcebook for Cthulhu Rising - Call of Cthulhu Roleplaying in the 23rd Century.
Great work Ottomancer,
Layout looks excellent. I haven't read too much of it so far but the images really add to this monograph. :thumb:
A++ job
Cheers,
Fergo113

That site seems to have expired, so here is a 'Wayback Machine link' directly to the English language version of the page for the Character Generator: Chaosium BRP Charakter Generator 4.10 (Freeware)
Nice find Halion :thumb:
I've tried to email the programmer of the software but had no reply. Thanks for posting this link.
Cheers,
Fergo113

Well, best wishes in your endeavors, Fergo. I'll check back now and again to see what's new on the project.

Thanks Baron, :thumb:
It's taking longer to do than I would like sadly. Mostly because I don't have much spare time right now.

Thank you, kind Fergo
Mate, pm me regarding this. :thumb:

Thanks for the link. Does anyone out there know a valid link to BRP Character Generator 4.10?
I have a copy of it tedopon. I'll see if Trifletraxor can add the zip file to the downloads section here at BRP Central.
I downloaded from www.edu-web.de a few years ago before their site went dead and there were other sites that had it as well (including some who wanted to charge for it :mad:).
As it was a free download :party: I can't see any problem with hosting here on this site, but that would be up to Trifletraxor to determine.
-
After having some discussions with Trifletraxor we decided to pull the imaged copy of the ME-BRP Creatures chapter from the site (he still has the imaged copy if you desperately want it, so pm him).
In its place, I have done an non-imaged, printer friendly version of that chapter and placed it in the new re-vamped Middle Earth section in the downloads area of this site. The only image within the document is one that Pilous from our site here as given for me to use.
I have also uploaded eight groups of ready to run baddies for use with ME-BRP (or any fantasy setting for that fact) that were developed by using the Chaosium BRP Character Generator 4.10 :thumb: from www.edu-web.de
It’s a great bit of software that can really speed up the creation of foes for use against your pc's. As long as the baddies are humanoid in nature, this easy to run software will speed the production of up to sixteen bad guys in a few moments.
Enjoy!

The MiddleEarth downloads have now been removed from the download section, after much consideration. They are a great pice of work, but the copyright issues made it difficult to keep distributing in such a "public" way.
I hope Fergo113 would continue to keep us updated on his project (and I'm sincerely hoping for a copy of the next chapter whenever it's done!).
:beetle:
Indeed I will and Trifletraxor has graciously offered to act as the key point of contact regarding this. :thumb:
This thread will stay open too and I will keep you all posted on its latest developments. Work on it has slowed to a snail’s pace due to my work commitments but I am still slowly but certainly working on completing the Free Peoples chapter and will keep those interested updated.
Cheers,
Fergo113

Oh, by all means, enjoy your summer, that's what summer is for. As I write this it is snowing outside, which is dashing our plans for the day as it was dry outside yesterday.
Hehehe, sorry I should probably explain that statement about summer over here . I am a fireman and we have hit a very busy time with bushfires over here and so I have been working some very late shifts. Tends to stuff up the chances I get to work on ME-BRP. What free time I do have off-shift, my family tends to demand that I spend some time with them as well. They just aren't committed to BRP
-
Would it be possible to get versions of the Middle Earth Downloads without the pictures? I like the bestiary, but would prefer a version that is more printer friendly.
I could do it, but that wouldn't be very easy right now. I am pretty busy with work as its our summer over here. That's really limiting the amount of time I can spend to transcribe my notes and dig though my MERP stuff in order to produce something cohesive and legable in a BRP format.
Currently I am going at a snails pace through the Free Peoples chapter and I want to get that finished as it complements to Creatures chapter.
I'll see what I can do but I can't promise anything for now.
Sorry

Ask and ye shall receive!

Thanks mate, :thumb:
I will certainly look at and work on all this. I haven't been happy with the Corruption system I have been using and had skipped over the Allegiance system in the BRP rules as I had never played a BRP game before with it. But having read the BRP Allegiance rules and having a flick through Pendragon, your right and it should work in very well with ME-BRP. It will be a while before I can get around to playing with it (I am still bogged down on the Elves in the Free Peoples chapter) but I will work on it as soon as I get the Magic chapter finished.
Cheers,
Fergo113

IIRC, there is a Digest entry somewhere that listed the Virtues for the major Gloranthan gods aimed at using them in Dave Dunham's PenDragon Pass rules (If your interested I can see if I can find this.)
SDLeary
If you can easily find this information, it would be great to have a look at. :thumb:
Thanks
-
Hmmm, thanks SDLeary :thumb:
I'll have a look at the 4th edition Pendragon and read up on this.
I was thinking of using the Allegiance rules from BRP in regards to a characters leaning towards the Free Peoples or the Shadow. Currently I have been using an immature and ad-hoc "corruption point" system (if you’r bad you earn corruption points, if you cast sorcery spells, you earn corruption points etc). But the Allegiance rules make far more sense.
I think the Pendragon virtues would fit right into this and be something that provides characters with unique progression traits. Needs a lot of work, but I have been at a loss as to how to do the overall Traits for ME-BRP and was thinking of dropping traits altogether.
Cheers,

I have loaded the image free version (except of Dario's images which he has given me permission to use) of Chapter 9 for Middle-earth BRP into the downloads section.
Unfortunately I haven't had the time to check for any format errors or page number errors, so I have simply removed most of the images in the original file.
If you would like the full image and formatted version, send me a PM here at the BRP forum and I will send you a FileFactory link to download it. It is around 16meg.
Cheers & Enjoy!
