Kloster Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 I finally got my hands on the new french RQG, just 1 hour before the 'stay at home' order. It seems I will have more than enough time to study it. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having said that, I have only given a cursory look at the PDF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordabdul Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 Yep, AFAICT it's the same layout and art as the English version, except for an original scenario in the back of the book, which features a few new original pieces. They're done in a similar style as the rest of the slipcase set, so for instance the scenario's NPCs are B&W paintings that are like those in the GM Adventures book. 1 1 Quote Ludovic aka Lordabdul -- read and listen to The God Learners , the Gloranthan podcast, newsletter, & blog !

Lordabdul Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 (edited) By the way, over on the (unofficial) Chaosium Discord server, some people were asking about the occupation changes in the French RQG. I figure it's probably OK to share them here, especially since many people think that the Hunter and Fisher occupation are wrong in the English version (lacking important skills and being too weak overall). Here are those occupations in the French RQG... they get a lot more points. I'll let people brush up their French and translate on their own (although they can cheat and use Google Translate!) Hunter Arme à distance culturelle (type au choix) +30 %, Camouflage +25 %, Connaissance (locale) +10 %, Connaissance des animaux +30 %, Déplacement silencieux +25 %, Dissimulation +10 %, Écoute +15 %, Invention 10%, Observation +15 %, Pistage +30 %. Fisher Javelot ou Arc court ou Filet (au choix) +20 %, Artisanat (au choix) +15 %, Bouclier (type au choix) +10 %, Canotage +30 %, Connaissance des animaux +20 %, Connaissance des rivières +30 %, Lance courte +10 %, Marchandage +15 %, Nage +40 %, Observation +10 %, Premiers soins 10 %. I think that @PhilHibbs's Google Docs character sheets has those stats when you switch it to "French", too.

Runeblogger Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 Thanks for this! So, if I'm not wrong, both occupations have received 60 points more, bringing the Fisher's 150 skill points to 210, and the Hunters 140 to 200. But what about the poor Healers? Do they still get only 140? Quote Read my Runeblog about RuneQuest and Glorantha at: http://elruneblog.blogspot.com.es/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same thing! 60 extra points. 1 2 Quote Ludovic aka Lordabdul -- read and listen to The God Learners , the Gloranthan podcast, newsletter, & blog !

DreadDomain Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 These three professions now make a lot more sense. Hopefully it will also be updated in the next printing in English. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kloster Posted March 2, 2021 Author Share Posted March 2, 2021 I've just found another difference: P82 (both version), on family heirloom, French release adds an optional rule that allows poor occupations (= not Assistant Shaman, Merchant, Noble, Priest and Warrior) can have a second roll on the Family heirloom table, the Roll twice result being ignored. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephen L Posted November 2, 2022 Share Posted November 2, 2022 Though the translation is pretty obvious even with my schoolboy French, to save even that minimal effort, here it is in English. I'm about to set up a campaign in Balazar, so there's chances someone will have a hunter parent. The skills in bold are those used for income calculation (unchanged from core rules). If anyone is concerned if they are "Official", I notice that these changes haven't made the Q&A corrections (at least that I can see). Hunter Cultural Missile Weapon (pick type) +30%, Hide +25%, Lore (local) +10%, Animal Lore +30%, Move Quietly +25%, Conceal +10%, Listen +15%, Devise 10%, Scan +15%, Track +30%. Fisher Javelin, Self Bow, or Thrown Net (pick one) +20%, Craft (pick one) +15%, Shield (pick one type) +10%, Boat +30%, Animal Lore +20%, River Lore +30 %, Short Spear +10%, Bargain +15%, Swim +40%, Scan +10%, First Aid 10%. Healer Alchemy +10%, Plant Lore +30%, Orate +10%, Insight (Human) +20%, Devise +10%, Scan +10%, First Aid +40%, Research +10%, Treat Disease + 30%, Treat Poison +30%.

Yes, but the occupation skill changes are switched on the Rules tab, and you can do that without changing language. Two different things.

smiorgan Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 I need to get the French PDF... maybe, just maybe, they streamlined that blessed attack-parry matrix. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
