Alright now I understand. Thanks for the help. I think I will pick up RQ2, it sounds like it's pretty good.

http://www.amazon.com/RuneQuest-Core-Rulebook-Matthew-Sprange/dp/1905471106/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1265327736&sr=8-3 this is the core rule book i got. It says its published by Mongoose in 2006. I don't see a lot of difference in it and the Luxury Edition that's available for download at this site. Of course I could be wrong, I may not have noticed the changes. The Deluxe core rules say they are done by Mongoose Publishing too. I dunno, they don't say what edition they are. I was curious about RuneQuest 2? Has anyone tried that yet?

I currently have Basic Role Playing, and the RuneQuest Core Rulebook and I went to the downloads section at this site and downloaded RuneQuest Luxury Edition. I was thinking about picking up RuneQuest Deluxe Edition but with the books I already have, would there even be a point? I thought it would have content the other two books don't but I don't know. Is there anything that the Deluxe Edition contains that the other two are missing?

Well, i was finally able to round up enough people to give BRP a try. Everyone loved it, some of them loved it so much they are switching from D@D to BRP because they wanted more freedom and customization in their campaigns. Everyone agreed it was a better system too, and it looks like we'll be playing it instead. Thanks to anyone who commented on my posts and gave advice, it helped smooth things along.

Ah, I see now, thank you for explaining that.

I also wanted to ask, I noticed the book mentions that if a character has a skill of 100% or higher he could divide the % and use it to make two attacks. But what if he just decides not to, and will always hit because its 100% chance of success. I'm sorry for all the questions, I've thought of making the character then make rolls out of 200% so with his 100% it would be 50/50 again, but because it's a new system for me I wanted to hear other people's opinions who have more experience. Thank you by the way for all the prompt responses and help.

thank you for the helpful responses, and yeah, I probably will need a bigger board.

I just recently picked up BRP and think its great. My friends and I are going to start a campaign that's in a fantasy medieval/ancient setting. I wanted to ask if anyone knows any good system for movement rates and that kind of thing because we are going to use miniatures and a chessboard. What was given in the book confused me, and I wanted to see if anyone has any good examples that they use for miniatures. Any advice is appreciated, thank you.
