  1. Hi everyone – going to be running Pendragon for my first ever time on Friday and have a question about melee distance. It all generally makes sense but I am a little confused about closing and opening ranges. Do you only declare the distance when initially engaging – the rules ‘imply’ it happens at the start of each combat round? ‘A character wishing to move to a closer distance must first win their opposed Combat Action, at which point they close during Step Five: Combat Movement.’ I am presuming that range could also be extended in the same manner, or do they need to Dodge/Evade or spend a turn on moving? Thank you
  2. Thank you both, yes I was getting the two events mixed up. I am prepping for my first campaign set in the post-Dragonrise world and trying to get a handle on things.
  3. Hi everyone, hope you can point me in the right direction. After the Dragonrise the dragon coiled around the Red Moon. Where can I find out more about this?
  4. I use this in Roll 20 - it seems to help remind the players (and me!). Rune Inspiration.pdf
  5. I ran it with a mix of old and new players and it was one of the best RPG experiences I have had - cannot recommend high enough.
  6. Because the 'Dragon Community' is so important in this, I have started creating a 'character sheet' for it. This is what I have so far - any suggestions for improvements gratefully received
  7. Running Six Seasons in Sartar has been one of the best RPG experiences I have had - thanks to the Andrew and great players. Company of the Dragon looks like it is going to continue that trend. The content is excellent and just as Six Seasons plotted a path from adulthood to... well no spoilers here, this book has a similar engaging arc. I really like the ‘episodes’ model for scenarios - it gives me, as a GM, guidance so I don’t have to be continually inventing new stuff each week - but the flexibility to individualise each encounter to suit our play. They sit somewhere between scenario hooks and full blown adventures. In Six Seasons we used all the suggested episodes from the back of that book and will be using all the new ones from this. In Six Seasons we did not use the community rules, our focus was more on the development of the young characters but it makes perfect sense to use them to develop the Dragon warband in this book. Andrew’s ability to incorporate mythos into interesting and engaging situations to role play is excellent and there are several included that will help introduce great ‘Glorantha feel’ to your game. I am not steeped in all things Glorantha and find this practical help invaluable and has given me the confidence to write my own HeroQuests and religious ceremonies and events. As in the previous story arc - this one builds into something that will live long in the GM and players’ memory.
  8. I think boxed sets are great - however I only really buy pdf these days.
  9. Thanks for the response - I guess we will have to wait and see :)
  10. So are there any recommendation about any publications where I might find out about the relationship? Regards
  11. Hi everyone, I notice that in the Cult Compatibility chart (page 311) it shows Odayla is 'friendly' to Eurmal (only Odayla and Yinkin seem to be). What's the story behind that?
  12. I am as impatient as the next role-player but the team working on Runequest is small - so patience is the key...
  13. I am interested in shaman - do they generally follow the traditions of their cults and marry and raise children or does this vary between different spirit cults?
