Different Games Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 (edited) at https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/316797/valley-of-plenty?affiliate_id=392988 there's text that claims to be a link to the quest worlds SRD. But it isn't. Is it actually available anywhere? Oh and I also see that Valley of Plenty is listed under the RuneQuest system, even though it isn't. Ouch. Seems like there's no category for QW at all! Edited August 23 by Different Games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PackardMoose Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 (edited) The SRD is on Github here: https://github.com/ChaosiumInc/QuestWorlds I'm not surprised that QW has no category on DTRPG, because it's not really a published system yet (unfortunately).

The Jonstown Compendium supports Glorantha works - primarily RuneQuest (current edition) since that is the flagship product, but also QuestWorlds and 13th Age Glorantha. Most sourcebooks could be used equally well in any of the three (scenarios less so). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Different Games Posted August 24 Author Share Posted August 24 I was aware QW was on Github, but I have to say I'm disappointed we can't get it in some sort of simply usable format. I know there's a cumbersome process to consolidate the .md files, but... ugh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SDLeary Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 There was a pdf on GitHub when I downloaded my copy. Take another look! SDLeary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ouch. Seems like there's no category for QW at all! I think that's a side-effect of how Jonstown Compendium (and other community content programmes?) is set up - the content creator doesn't get to choose which rule system the content is tagged under, and the system has been set to default to RQ (presumably as it's by far the most popular for this particular programme). You'll see that the new Red Moon and Warring Kingdoms supplement is also tagged as RQ, even though it very clearly is not. Quote -- An Unofficial Buyer's Guide to RuneQuest and Glorantha lists everything currently available for the game and setting, across 60 pages. "Lavishly illustrated throughout, festooned with hyperlinks" - Nick Brooke. The Voralans presents Glorantha's magical mushroom humanoids, the black elves. "A wonderful blend of researched detail and Glorantha crazy" - Austin Conrad. The Children of Hykim documents Glorantha's shape-changing totemic animal people, the Hsunchen.

But I'm guessing that DTRPG have set things up so that each Community Content Programme can only be tagged against one ruleset category.
