Dahak Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 As in the title, what trivial thing do you wish had been in the Big Gold Book? Not meaning serious or critical (to some) game elements omitted because of space or scope-- just fun and/or silly stuff. Mine would be anthropomorphic ducks. As much a part of the Marvel multiverse as RuneQuest, but definitely a quirky race identified with RQ gaming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mankcam Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 cheesy asian dance-off contest rules, with expanded moves and such Quote " Sure it's fun, but it is also well known that a D20 roll and an AC is no match against a hefty swing of a D100% and a D20 Hit Location Table!"

pansophy Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 Fun skills from good old CoC, like "Baseball Cards", "lazy", "falling asleep", etc. But then, it would have distraced new players of BRP.

Meh, those were ripped off from old RQ2 (the real one) suplements!!!

Agentorange Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 The latin names they had for the monsters in RQ3. For example just as man is Homo Sapiens, dragons were Draco Pyrifer. All the monsters had them and they were rather fun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vagabond Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 Cyberware & Bioware rules and more high tech gear. I think these are better served in a sourcebook. I like the light and terse info provided in the BGB, too much detail, and we're looking at 1000 pages to cover more genres in greater detail.

Simlasa Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 A system of group/ritual magic that would be cast by troupes of Bollywood-style dancers/musicians/singers.

tedopon Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 Any gadget creation rules besides the ones I wrote and have been using off and on for a couple years would have been/be much appreciated. While functional, they aren't all that good. I audibly groan due to embarrassment when a player asks if he can make a powered utility gadget. Thankfully, I've played with nice people who have yet to look me in the eye and say "Really?" in a deadpan voice. Quote 121/420 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
