pansophy Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 Don't know if people recognise it at all, but MW and CoC use different Movement rates. I like to use some creatures from both of these settings in my BRP game, so I came up with this easy movement table. CoC to BRP Movement Quote My Uploads - BRP and new: Revolution D100 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smiorgan Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 Great table! Very useful. I don't know why there are these differences. MW movement rates come from Elric! and are identical to those in CoC. I think they originate from RQ2 movement rates. RQ3 movement rates are completely different and BRP ones are neither those in RQ3 nor those in RQ2/CoC/Elric!/MV. Perhaps you could expand the table including a column for RQ3 movement rates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pansophy Posted April 2, 2013 Author Share Posted April 2, 2013 I have to verify, but I think RQ3 gives Movement in meters per Strike Rank, which would be 30m for a human, which would be the same as in BRP. But you are right, I could add a table for RQ3 to make things easier. Tomorrow. Quote My Uploads - BRP and new: Revolution D100 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1000buffalo Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 Thanks for that - I hadn't even caught it or considered it. Much appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pansophy Posted April 2, 2013 Author Share Posted April 2, 2013 Updated the file, so it now shows RQ3 Movement to BRP. But be careful, RQ3 movement is not as granular and can give ridiculous values. Use them as a reference only. I think some creatures in RQ3 were just not done right. Nevertheless, the RQ3 table is quiet useful and speeds up gameplay. Have fun with it!

soltakss Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 It looks good, but is a little confusing. What would be really useful is a combination of the tables, showing the MW/CoC/BRP/RQ3/RQ2/Legend/RQ6 movements and how they relate to each other, a little like the Coc/BRP and RQ3/BRP tables. The distances aren't that important to me, except perhaps metres per round, but a comparison of all of them would be very useful.

pansophy Posted April 5, 2013 Author Share Posted April 5, 2013 Hm, I can make one up for you. Although I think it is pretty easy to see how they relate to each othe if you look at the % column. I just realised, the PDF does have two pages. Please ignore the first one as it was just an initial comparison chart. Will fix it on Monday.

rogerd Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 I have only a few issues with BRP, and movement is the main one - that being it is really rather rubbish. Everyone moving at the same speed - very silly. Str+ Dex + Siz / 3 = speed in miles per hour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pansophy Posted April 5, 2013 Author Share Posted April 5, 2013 (edited) What is "miles"? seriously, about 12 miles an hour movement? That seems way too fast for me. Maybe running speed, but not walking. Edited April 5, 2013 by pansophy Quote My Uploads - BRP and new: Revolution D100 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, mad bad. I should have said that is running speed, this also means that we can create real world sprinters like Usain Bolt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
