MOB Posted September 10, 2019 Share Posted September 10, 2019 To mark the anniversary of Greg Stafford's passing, we encourage Chaosium fans and gamers in general to play a tabletop game from October 10 to October 31 in his memory. To that end we'll be releasing a set of new free adventures for all our major game systems, including RUNEQUEST and HEROQUEST GLORANTHA. Details about these scenarios in the coming weeks.

Christoph Kohring Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 There already was a PenDragonPass once & now there is D&D:G (AKA 13thA:G), so how about 7Sea:G?!? GURPS:G? FATE:G? BoL:G?!? Everywhen:G? PbtA:G? D6:G? Etc, etc, etc... Let a thousand Glorantha games & RPG systems bloom, sez I! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Akhôrahil Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 Hmm, my group already has a session booked for October 20... here's hoping the scenario can be fitted into the campaign, although just playing it free-standing might also be an option. Would love to see mini-descriptions about the scenarios beforehand. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barbarians of Lemuria: Glorantha (BoL:G) a game (BoL) that screams Glorantha to me & that is very HeroQuestish... but not quite: it still has attributes (4), combat skills (4) & specific rules, "hit points" (called Lifeblood there, much more evocative!) & damage. The only question that remains is how to adapt (HQ:CR/ HQ:G) magic to it. (Everywhen RPG is generic BoL because the rules are so good, so light & so much fun... a bit like the forthcoming HQ:RoG [HeroQuest: Roleplaying oustide Glorantha] aka QuestWorlds. BoL is such a good game design that its first editions were published for free online & that the fans later convinced its author to publish it professionaly at cost! Check it out, it's amazing.)

You will certainly have detailed rules for digging holes in the ground if you go with GURPS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeadAsbestos Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 We play mostly tabletop wargames, so I'm planning a Gloranthan adventure for the 7th Voyage system. It is a perfect fit! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jajagappa Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 While I've not had the opportunity to run or play a game in person for many years, I've thoroughly enjoyed running my Glorantha games by post. In remembrance of Greg, and in thanks to all those who either currently participate in or have participated in my long-running HQG Orlmarth Campaign, I offer a little collage reflecting the collective journey (and apologies to any I missed). As it says in my RPGGeek banner: #WeAreAllUs ! Currently, our heroes are in the Underworld trying to find their way to the Caves of Silence in order to free Orane. But first, they must fulfill the duties that Bijiif the Ash King and Maggot Liege has placed upon them.... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
