How to setup Mythras optional rules for your campaign - NOMCORSS

[hkokko]

Mythras can be considered as a very flexible toolkit for setting up your campaign. This gives enormous power to shape the campaign rules to fit the campaign content and mood. It also gives new GMs a question: Which options I need to setup and how do I communicate which rules are in effect.

 

To answer this question there is a new tool NOMCORSS (NotesFromPavis Opinionated Mythras Campaign Optional Rule Setup Sheet). It is an excel sheet which gives the GM a worksheet to select which optional rules are in effect in his/her particular campaign. The first version is for before firepower age campaigns and should contain all RAW options and some popular house rules and setting rules that you can select for your campaign. 

 

Here is an example of opinionated setup for campaign tools.
