Converted

  • RPG Biography
    Player/GM. AD&D, D&D4e, WoD, CoC, BRP.

    Though just got BRP (finally) and pretty much cannot fathom why I'd play anything else. ;)
  • Current games
    Custom dark fantasy setting; wars between demon hoardes, the gods, and the tectonic shifts of chaos and order.

    Working on converting the Virga cycle (Sun of Suns, Queen of Candesce, etc by Karl Schroeder) into a BRP campaign setting.

    Also like writing random one-offs in more literary styles with heavy metaphors, symbolism, and meta-gaming.

  1. I bought my copy at my local brick and mortar. It's my first wild-west setting and I'm quite happy with it. All that's left is to get my group's eyes off of 4e...
  2. There are only 2 layout issues that confused me on first reading, but they are pretty easy to over-look. This is a great source book. The artwork is fantastic, the index is decent, and all of the NPCs come with a few options to give you some flexibility with the kind of campaign you're running. This book makes an excellent companion to any campaign set in the late 19th century new world, wierd or not. I highly recommend it.
  3. After much struggle, I've managed to come across a copy of BRP thanks to a friend. I've been playing RPGs of all kinds for about 12 years or so. I started with some friends playing AD&D 2nd. It wasn't long before we tried other games such as Jovian Chronicles, Aftermath!, various White Wolf games, and the later incarnations of D&D. Needless to say, I think I've found a home in BRP. I discovered it via CoC and loved the system behind that game. I've always wanted a genre-free game system that I could mold to the foundations of some of my own creative imaginings. Something that was simple and easy to reason about in the face of ambiguity. I think BRP fills this role perfectly and I'm slowly trying to consolidate my RPG library around BRP. It's a great game and I hope it will have a bright future.
