    Using BRP to run Gamma World (some suggestions needed)

    in Basic Roleplaying

    Posted

    I think 2nd edition is best for converting monster as 2nd edition has actual stats where later edition have cookie cutter clone with little stats listed. as far as a mutation list. I believe the2nd edition adventure boklet has the mutation list page 26. i plant on converting the mutations eventually. later editions of the game have certain creatures omitted as well. i have gamma world 2e,3e, 4e when i say 4e i mean the booklet with flying obbs about to be shot by a purestrain human. some peple are calling the newest edition boxed set 4e but that is not correct.

    Gloranthan Classics on DTRPG

    in Glorantha

    Posted

    I Have Vol. 2 Griffin Mountain , 4 1/2 stars out of 5 the book is huge tons of detail, loads of stats for the locals, monsters, adventures. i want the other books but i have yet to find them available any where. ARE the Gloranthan classics currently out of print, was it a limited print number?

    Issaries has now published some Gloranthan Classics as PDFs on Drive Thru RPG:

    Vol. 1: Pavis & Big Rubble

    Vol. 2: Griffin Mountain

    Vol. 3: Cult Compendium

    Vol. 4: Borderlands & Beyond

    and also Stafford Library: Heortling Mythology.

    Gloranthan Classics on DTRPG

    in Glorantha

    I agree a runequest clone would be awesome! And i think it would make access, and new material available for Chaosiums classic Runequest2. I would definitely be interested in contributing to such a project as long as it is not a problem for Chaosium.

    I would prefer Chaosium was involved in such a project ,as i prefer to support Chaosium. i think it could be a good way to get others into BRP as well , i am constantly in search of Chaosium RQ2 material adventures, monsters etc. i have lots of Runequest 3 material but it has to be converted which can be a pain!

    Now we need a clone of RQ2. O:)

    Classic Runequest II Chaosium could it be reprinted with a different name?

    in RuneQuest

    Posted

    Well i would still play it in Glorantha , but realistically one can't produce the book with Gloranthan references unless Issaries INC. allows it! i believe it is Issaries INc. correct me if i am wrong on who owns glorantha! although i love Glorantha i think it works well with any setting, i have used the chasium Runequest2 rules for just about every era and genre.

    Anyways thanks Everyone!

    I do not see any advantage in such an operation. 90% of the people who still love the book state that its advantage was that the system was integrated with the setting. Reprinting the book without Glorantha in it would mean taking away the best part of it.

    Glyphmaster is a book specifically designed to let people who do not have the old RQ2 book play the reprints produced by Moon Design "out of the box". Without the Glorantha books, it is just a collection of outdated rules that have a much better incarnation in the Big Golden Book.

    My move rate system based on Str+dex is based on comparing max human speed to max animal speeds obviously it will never be 100% accurate . Also i just figured out a good system for Chaosiums Runequest 2 rpg it allow characters to have different move rates, based on DEX,STR i dont base it on size cause i think size can be decieving as not all large sized people are tall and have long legs. but one could make it size if they prefer. the new move system for chaosiums RQ2 rpg can even give monsters random move rates and still keep true to the average of that creature type i will try to post it up soon

    Classic Runequest II Chaosium could it be reprinted with a different name?

    I am wondering if Classic Runequest II chaosium version RPG could be reprinted with a different name? obviously all references to glorantha would have to be taken out! Of all the Runequest rpg's i think chaosiums RQ2 was the best!

    Could it be done? i know a lot of people still use chaosiums classic Runequest 2 RPG. i have PDF's of most of the books. and paper books as well.

    The New BRP book is great and all ,but i still find my self drawn to Chaosiums Runequest II, maybe i am crazy! lol

    What do you think! could it be done?

    How Could BRP Be More Popular...?

    in Basic Roleplaying

    Posted

    Hello every one

    well for brp to be more popular i think we need to do the following:

    (1) advertise ,promote promote promote. when i say this i am not refering to just Chaosium, but to us as well the fans,the players,

    we need to post on forrums,twiiter,youtube,myspace,facebook, i think chaosium needs us as much as we need them! and this means that we all need to do are share. I also think chaosium needs a myspace page, a twiiter page,facebook, we needs such sites to get more people to come to chaosiums website, exposure is a key factor.maybe they have some of those sights im not sure.

    i know the chaosium staff is working its butt off and last thing they need is more work and projects, so maybe we can do it!

    Chaosium does not have the money that some other companies have as far as advertising ! so lets do are part to help spread the word!

    (2) yes a lot of role players like the systems that allow power hungry ,obssesed characters, i use to be one my self when i first playyed rpg, but guess what i got bored of power hungry,nearly invicible characters! and i think alot of those people would change and play a more ellegant system, and give up thier power monger characters if they were exposed to it!

    (3) we need more content, wether it be free ebooks,or published content we also need to see what is popular for teens to adults! Perhapps we need to do polls on what generes,movies ,anime,sci-fi, fannytasy, other things that is currently peeking demograpgic interest! i cant say im a expert and i really have no clue per say what peeks kids interest as far as specific genre's .

    i really think we would get more players if they saw how elegant,and easy the BRP is !

    perhapps we all need to brain storm this and work out a plan of attack !

    I did a simular move rate system based on Str+dex and i calculated move values for melee combat, non-melee and the mph value. i also calculated animals as well. im not sure how easy it would be to incorporate into brp . considering i was designed off of call of cthulhu might have to up the animal move rates considering COC AND BRP have different move rates respective for a human coc =8 BRP= 10

    if anyone wants to try it out let me know

    Rifts Dragon hatchlings for BRP

    As far as converting MDC monsters ignore the MDC values use a equivalent BRP creature and add special powers, skills.

    example rifts vampires are MDC undead monster simply use the BRP vampires.

    If you need help send me a email with the creature your trying to convert im sure i can figure it out send me the creatures name what book it is found in or send me the basic rifts stats and skills,description,powers etc.

    Also if you need help converting from other game systems send me a email odds are i can help.

    RIFTS BRP

    in Basic Roleplaying

    Posted

    Hello

    I just calculated rifts to BRP and posted it in science fiction downloads

    the armor was difficult to calulate but i think i have a somewhat resonable solution.

    Converting MDC weapons was fairly easy as both games have listing for law rocket,90mm recoiless rifle,and tank guns so i had 3 values and the rest was logical progression. anyway check it out , modify it as you will.

    if you have questions ask me

    i hope it helps!:)
