That bad, huh? Oops, egg on face, will slink away now...

So how was mhy horrid francais?

Et, voila.

Go to create, start to create a new forum choose a destination , and when it asks for a title and content of the first post you can choose content or poll from the tabbed choice just under the words Create New Topic. at the top.

When character sheets resemble the original but with improvements you get the advantage of the familiar (ease of look ups) and the advantage of the new (corrections, edits, improvements) all at once, no? Have you thought of asking this as a Poll question?

Alright Phil, yer outa yer corner, back to Egregious Munchkinerry fer you!

Sorry about that, one could go to the Glorantha Forum and as of today Dragon Pass Pastimes is near the top as it has been recently used. One could also click here if soltakss's little secret works... https://basicroleplaying.org/topic/9665-dragon-pass-pastimes/ Yay, soltakss!

I was thinking similar, the gods were hurt in the spirit world so there should be blood from the wounds but why would it appear as we see blood... What does mytha-physical blood look like?

Sympathies Ochoa, the denizens are a bit rabid here. Bring friends and big protective spells. ;)

You are playing and debating a very complicated game system and holding your own so, Mon ami. je va essayez votrez langage pour dire tu parle anglez tres bien.

Great question! I have never seen this on the boards, and am eager to see what answers this query brings. good one!

Agreed

Oh Phil let the professionals handle the bad puns...

Cheers

you know, I feel that way most times, hell usually it's the corrections that along with the great flights of fancy give the most benefit. Just every now and again you just feel...blah... That's why I said joke/observation. Only half serious. And now back to the topic at hand... Cheers

Ah alas, but of course as you say one's Esrolia might vary. You never do! Your writings usually give wings to those trains of thoughts, so that they might leap from the confining rails to new heights. No, that was a small joke/observation that sometimes I feel myself spending more time in an email double checking for errors so that no one will pounce on me for a goof I did not catch, invalidating everything else I might say that it sucks some of the joy out of it all. Cheers

Sorry I had no intention of implying the minoan culture as a whole, I was only referring to the image of a woman "vaulting the bull, which is partially why I'd like to see it as an Ernaldan ritual." that Sir_Godspeed noted. Note. I was referring in my earlier post to pre-minoan, possibly pre-babylonian and should have said that again, oops. Man you got's to be so careful around here with all grognards just what ya say

I can definitely see this occurring in Esrolia!

Though I have not evidence, I do wonder... the Gilgamesh, Enkidu battle is a strong dichotomy of urban versus rural and Man versus Beast, if the founder of Babylon can battle wild beast and tame it and bring it into man's realm might not man demonstrate and celebrate this myth with a battle twixt man and a tamed/wild bull? Could the battle between man and bull be even older?

will it be available at chaosium.com? @MOB

I would think that all that you mention wold be known about by the average citizen who would be able to say a bit about each of them (possible incorrectly, but still) so... would you bring then up to the average bronze age citizen plaiying his fave RPG Advanced A&A (attorneys and accountants), perhaps not. Would the bronze age role-player need to know need to know, I suppose not. It depends on who is playing. eh, Should Joerg be playing in your game this eve, I would recommend having both PDFs of the GtG open and ready of searching. Cheers

Yes. Just the weirdness of your area first, agreed, but Ian, surely one would want to at least say flat world multiple gods who make up the world elements and are very tangible but removed, the red moon, and maybe the dragon rise. :)

Correct

I had this fear back 10 years ago when restarting and old game for a few months (came to naught, alas). Back then there were so many possibilities (RQ 1-4, WB&RM, HW, HQ 1 and 2, KoDP and all the Stafford books as well as 20 odd years of computer forums.) that a given myth or story might have 4 or five sometimes very disparate ways of being told. RQ was not a Chaosium thing and a series pf MRQ games came out, Moon Designs was putting out classic old stories. Oh what was a poor GM to do? I decided to not fret and to take advantage of the situation. My game does not have to match canon, my game could become canon (granted, my own canon, but...). As there was no one putting out RQ for the third age who was to say I was wrong. I could decide which truth was real and the confusion could only benefit the game as the players would not longer be omniscient.Even with info flowing again, I think I will try this still: many stories equaling one or two truths. I have yet to try this out in a full campaign, but ask me in 5 years how it went. Cheers

I would be truly afraid to imagine what a Eurmali could devise in that case.
