I know its long overdue. But Star Wars: Dawn of Defiance Episode II is finally up. You are more than welcome to give feedback or point out errors in the file. Since it's hard to catch all the mistakes alone. Already corrected some errors and uploaded the new file. The updated file should have 1.1 at the end of the filename.

Here comes my BRP conversion of the second adventure of the Dawn of Defiance series that no longer are available from Wizards of the Coast. I have tried to keep the conversion as simple as possible so you can use it straight with only the Basic RolePlaying book and as little tweaks as possible. For a guideline on what optional rules that will be used in the campaign download Star Wars Dawn of Defiance Primer. The adventure have not been playtested yet with the BRP rules and I am sure I have missed some errors in the text so feedback are very welcome. Version 2 Corrected some skills on a couple of the NPCs Version 3 Updated some stats according to the recomendations in Version 5 of the Star Wars Dawn of Defiance Primer Version 4 Some minor updates to bring it in line with Version 6 of the Star Wars Dawn of Defiance Primer -
Well that is probably what I am gonna do. Loved the Legend books but not everything in them. So I am thinking about sticking to my BRP book but pick the parts I like from the Legend book for my upcoming fantasy game. Since the games are so similar it's so easy to pick stuff and plug em into BRP. But nothing has been decided yet.

Continouing this post on armour errata. I came across this when writing an adventure. Riot Gear has a split AP of 12/6. But there is knowhere to find when or against what it does apply. I assume it is the same as with the other armors with split AP and I assume they just forgot to include the footnote on Riot Gear in the list.

I second the opinion on the adventures too. Adventures might not be as economical and pay off as well as rulebooks and settings but it is what keeps a game alive and should not be overlooked since I belive it will pay of in the long run.

Classic Fantasy is not stand alone. You still need the BGB. You could probably run Classic Fantasy with only the Quick Start Edition though.

This is a d20 to BRP Conversion document I cobbled together a while ago. It is based on an earlier document I found somewhere on the internet but can't seem to find any more. Changed a lot from that document. So here is mine for everyone to enjoy. It also includes an example conversion of the Dragonne from the D&D 3,5 Monster Manual. -
Well Merry Christmas from Sweden too.

CLASSIC FANTASY - A Return to the Dawn of Roleplaying
Chorpa replied to Trifletraxor's topic in Basic Roleplaying
Well have found that most of the creatures in Basic Creatures are already included in the BRP book. If you think it's worth buying it for just a few additional monsters go ahead. They do require some tweaking, mostly to recalculate and get MOV scores and rename some skills with the help of the Conversion section in Appendices in the BRP book. But other than that you can mostly use them as is. But I would recommend just downloading Basic Bestiary instead. Basicly you get the same as Basic Creatures but for free. -
But it's still a bit strange that the basic price is the same as the Print Quick Start Edition from Chaosium while the Quick Start PDF is free from Chaosium. Makes me think it is some sort of mistake.

Sounds perfect. Ran a short test fantasy campaign. The players wanted a bit of more durable characters and I wanted more gritty combats so we compromised and used Total Hit Points and the Hit Location System. Worked quite perfectly. Gave the players an edge at the same time as keeping the grittiness and the sense of danger. Guess this will be on my next order then.

I have been looking at picking up this module and running it with my own BRP fantasy campaign. Looks easy enough to plug in to my own world. Just wonder how much work is required to use it with BRP?
-
I will probably pick it up and run it with BRP. Always been a fan of the Conan novels and this seem to just in that vein.
-
Gah! So tempted to buy the Mythic Island pdf. But had planned to wait and buy the dead tree version instead. At least the adventure is free and gives me something to tease my appetite until I get the book in my sweaty hands.
-
Well as far as I know neither is available online except as part of the pdf versions of the books.
-
Well we have to just wait and see how it develops. But so far it seems to go well for Legend. Who knows maybe Mongoose manage to bring back some of the glory from the 80s to d100 games. I am sure some of it will spread over to the other d100 games too.
-
Well that $1 sale on RPGNow got me to purchase the pdf. I liked it so much I just ordered the print versions of Legend and Monsters of Legend. Also pre-ordered Arms of Legend and The Spider God's Bride that seems to be an excellent scenario book in the same spirit of Conan. Now I am just cursing myself for not getting it while it was MRQII. But better late then never.
-
w00t! $1 for a pdf. Sign me up and been looking for a good d100 system to form the basis for my future fantasy games. Have had my eye on RQII and now Legend not interested in Glorantha but wanted a stable d100 system for a generic fantasy game. This gives me a chance to check it out before I buy the printed book.

INCIDENT AT ALICE - Dark Days in the Land of Enchantment
Chorpa replied to Trifletraxor's topic in Basic Roleplaying
I would be the first one to pick up this! Our current Aces High takes place just before the Civil War but the war is rapidly approaching and I am a bit of a loss of what kind of adventures to throw at the players to take them past the Civil War. This sound like a perfect mini-campaign arc to take them past the Civil War into a time after when we get back to the usual. So here comes some extra cheers to help keep you motivated. ;t) -
AD&D 2nd Edition Dragon Mountain Conversion
Chorpa replied to zombielord76's topic in Basic Roleplaying
D&D 3.0/3.5 is pretty easy to convert. The stat conversion above can still be used as is just ignore the percentile addition. Skills is another matter. Point wise the most correct way to do the skills are to just multiply the bonus with 5 and adding 50 to the result (equaling a take 10 usage). I myself have noticed that adding only 25 to that usually yields better and more usable numbers. Normally I just ignore Saving Throws and such since they can usually just be replaced with Characteristics Rolls and in some cases Skill rolls. As a general rule Fortitude Save = Stamina Roll, Reflex Save = Agility Roll and Will Save = Luck Roll. I usually keep it simple saying that DC 10 or lower = Easy Roll, DC 11-29 = Normal Roll and DC 30+ = Difficult Roll. If you want more detail on the modifiers you can instead just take (20-DC)*5= Skill Modifier in %. For example some trying to beat a DC 25 roll would have a -25% modifier to his roll. This applies to normal skill rolls too. There is plenty of help to convert AD&D/D&D stuff here (as already mentioned): http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/brpclassicfantasy/ An couple of example creatures of where I have been using the above guidelines for conversions can be found here: http://0onegames.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=382 -
Seems like a delayed Chrismas gift is planned for myself. I am a bit curious about the Cthulhu Dark Ages Scenario scenario mentioned. I don't have Cthulhu Dark Ages my self and don't intend to get it, only use the BRP book for my games. How much Cthulhu will it be? Is hoping for a scenario more focused on the Viking mythology than on the Cthulhu mythology but I don't mind it being dark or horror themed though.

VENI-VIDI-VICI - Four Adventures for Rome
Chorpa replied to Trifletraxor's topic in Basic Roleplaying
Well our GURPS Space campaign ended catastrophicly with most of the group whiped out. Instead of salvaging what was left I let them vote for it and BRP Rome ended up being the big the winner (everyone that attended voted BRP Rome) so I instantly went online to buy Veni, Vidi, Vici to use as the start of our campaign. Gonna spend the night reading through the whole thing but skimming through the books my first impression is that it looks very good so far. It seems to be written in a very clear and easy format so it's hard to miss any important details when running each scenario. -
Just threw in an order at Chaosium for: The Magic Book Aces High (only had pdf) Classic Fantasy (only had pdf) Had some money given from my local RPG club I could spend too so hardly had to spend anything by myself. But the offer with the Halloween sale was to good to pass up. And my regular supplier still hasn't gotten their thumbs out of their *beep* and gotten BRP Magic into stock so a perfect opportunity to also get printed versions of the monographs I use.

RIVER OF HEAVEN - Science Fiction Roleplaying in the 28th Century
Chorpa replied to Trifletraxor's topic in D101 Games
Looks very interesting! Have a freshly started relatively hard sci-fi campaign at the moment which I have named Exodus. But I am sure there will be plenty of usable stuff in there to use even if I don't run it in River of Heaven setting.
