Attackers for Gringle's Pawnshop

I had a quick look at the first one (Khochaz) to see how conversions would work, since I never tried it myself, and I have some questions:

  • Why did you lower his Protection 2 down to a Protection 1?
  • I believe the 1H heavy mace damage would be 1D8+2+1D4 (not 1D6)?
  • How did you get SR 9 for the sling? It's SR 2 from DEX (there's no SR modifier from SIZ for thrown weapons I think), so it should be SR 2 if the sling is loaded, SR 7 if it's unloaded?
  • Shield damage is, I think, missing the damage modifier? It should be 1D4+1D4?

Kochaz had no number given for Protection in Apple Lane (original). Since the others have Protection 2, I have since bumped it.
As for the sling, I simply added the base SR given in the Bestiary. Essentially this is a quick and adaptation.

The missing shield damage is my error. I have added that and made sure that the skills are correct as best I can. This includes making sure that they have the correct Devise, Move Quietly, Scan, and Search skills.

Oh interesting -- I was looking at the re-released PDF version and he does have Protection 2. I guess that's why those PDF re-releases are often taking a long time: they're not half-assed scan+OCR jobs, they might actually re-read and fix some stuff :)   (unless maybe that specific thing was already fixed in a later printing of the original Apple Lane, I don't know).

In my copy of Bestiary, it says SR2 for the Baboons' sling. I'm not sure if that includes the DEX SR or not (if it doesn't then yeah it would be SR 4 loaded, SR 9 unloaded). But I'm going to assume all the stats in Bestiary do indeed include DEX/SIZ because, well, first, it would just be so much nicer for GMs, and, second, it would be consistent with, say, ducks having SR 8 for their Shortsword (Base SR 5 + Shortsword SR 3).

Thanks for the updates!

I have been giving this more thought and perhaps there is scope here for a versions of the stats for both versions of Apple LaneRuneQuest Classic and RuneQuest III—updated to RuneQuest: Roleplaying in Glorantha, and then a third version actually written based on the RuneQuest Bestiary.
