One of the things about Rolemaster that I hated was the critical charts, so not for me, thanks. Personally, I'd prefer you to use your impressive talents to churn out more gaming material. Regarding pictures in minster manuals, I know what a unicorn, bear and centaur look like, so I don;t need pictures of them. Maybe pictures are good for new monsters that are hard to imagine, but generally I prefer text.

Another example is Oakfed, the god of Wildfire and the Sacred Fire. He is one of the Lowfires, children of Lodril, grandchildren of Aether Primolt and ranks alongside Barntar, Waha and Yelmalio in terms of descent from the Celestial Court. However, in Prax Oakfed is worshipped in a Spirit Society. Personally, I tend to think that the deities exist and are worshipped by whatever means are available. So, an animist society worships as a Great Spirit, a theist society worships as a god and so on. That is why you can get Orlanth worshipped a a spirit (Little Brother) and a god by people in Prax.

You really should start charging for this material! Excellent, as always.

I hadn't noticed and I normally would. In fact, I have just looked at it again and I can sort of see what they mean, but wouldn't have noticed if it hadn't been pointed out.

I watched it last week and I liked it. The Saxons vs Vikings theme works, as does the idea that there are good and bad people on both sides, if you know where to look.

At conventions, the Chaosium/Moon Design bigwigs say "H-Sunchen", so that's probably right. However, I have heard different people say "PAHvis", "PAYvis" and PAvis" for Pavis, so different words can be pronounced very differently. In our game, we pronounce the same word differently and nobody bats an eyelid, as long as we all understand what is meant.

I always assumed that the Tusk Rider Hero stole some of the powers of the Great Boar and infused his followers with them. So, in my Glorantha they are half-boar. They might have some trollish blood as well, of course.

I like the idea of Chaosium producing Gloranthan RuneQuest and The Design Mechanism producing Alternate Earth and other RuneQuest.

I tend to use the What's new feature, rather than going through the forums. It means I have to wade through the occasional post that doesn't really float my boat, but that's a small price to pay. If I had to look at all the forums to see what was new, like I did on the Moon Design forums, then it wouldn't be half as useful as it is now.

Gloranthan maps on an App that means I could fly through Glorantha? Fantastic. Doing it on my mobile phone? Not so good. I'd love this as an option for a Windows PC, though.

Asrelia/Ty Kora Tek, Ernalda/Manan Gor and Voria/babeester Gor belong to the Earth Pantheon as much as the Storm Pantheon. In fact, Vinga is the only real daughter of Orlanth/Ernalda and she is a non-virgin warrioress. It all depends what you want. Eiritha is a herd-mother and wife of Storm Bull, brother of Orlanth. The land goddesses and grain goddesses might belong to the Earth and Storm pantheons. Uleria might be considered part of the Storm Pantheon, but might also be considered above the Pantheons. The Mistress of Inspiration is a knowledge goddess and is part of the Storm Pantheon.

I, for one, would prefer Scanned/OCRed PDFs as I could then legalise the ones that I might, or might not, have.

I thought they were old friends ...

Well, this forum's layout and design is far better that the one at Moon Design and a lot easier to use. I hope it can remain the force for discussion that it always has been.

Is it out yet? I haven't seen it advertised anywhere.

That chart is spot on - well done!

I think you need a certain number of posts before you can edit posts.

So will I - 1900 GMT is 2000 BST, right?

What new grid version? I use the Unread Items search to view unread topics and look at them, so I almost never go into the forums themselves.

The BBC has an article on this - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-34425615 - Bouqets of barbed wire and clubs hidden in dresses, perfect for a RPG.

Edit Profile - Basic Info - Member Title First block on the profile.

I feel your pain - Merrie England has been through two systems and is soon to be on its third, due to licensing issues. Don;t feel that it is time wasted, instead think of it as honing and improving the system.

Isn't it a configurable field on your profile? I didn't get to be RQ Fogey by doing any work - just made it so.

Say something nice about CoC? Sorry, I can't ...

It is one of the best things about the new RuneQuest! I am easily pleased ...
