Link6746 Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 The rules for my cybernetics and resource points mechanics are both in the downloads section, last I checked. The resource points mechanic is meant to work alongside the wealth mechanic's defined terms (You get certain starting resource points and "income" of resource points based on those terms as defined in Chaosium's Basic Roleplaying). The Cybernetics mechanics are based on the idea of implants taking up "slots" depending on their cumbersomeness, but the cybernetics themselves are largely designed using a step by step process that determines their type (one of three boost types, combined with two or so types of implant, those being cybernetic and biological graft, combined with classification as a prosthetic or implant), their quality (Determines how likely they are to malfunction and their effectiveness), and what happens if they malfunction. The balancing methods included are meant to be selected by the GM, and include ideas based on Cyberpunk 2020's "Humanity", Shadowrun's "Essence", and a more directly Neuromancer inspired method where implants and prosthetics can conflict with each other sometimes, causing problems that make sense for the type of implant (and are listed with the malfunction results). I tried to design them primarily as cyberpunk optional rules, but I also tried to give them reasons to work with everything from steampunk automaton parts to manapunk golem grafts as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where is this download section? I saw it mentioned a few times... But the only post I found is this sticky thread Which, for example, doesn't have the cybernetic rules....

rsanford Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 The download section is accessed from a tab on the home main menu that says downloads. But the tab doesn’t exist on the mobile site (though you can still search for a download). 1 Quote Check out our homebrew rules for freeform magic in BRP -> No reason for Ars Magica players to have all the fun!

rsanford Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Oh by the way, the download section has an absolute trove of goodies collected over a long period. Highly recommend. 1 Quote Check out our homebrew rules for freeform magic in BRP -> No reason for Ars Magica players to have all the fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThornPlutonius Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 I continue to look forward to the eventual release of the international version of the rules into the wild after what I hope is a successful conclusion to the Dynamic D100 project.

RosenMcStern Posted March 13, 2020 Author Share Posted March 13, 2020 Rest assured it will take place. The draft is at an advanced state (in English) and some authors are already basing their work on it. 2 Quote Proud member of the Evil CompetitionTM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archivist Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Will the International Rules have new stuff in it, or is it waiting for the companion. I have a list of stuff I would like in companion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RosenMcStern Posted April 24, 2020 Author Share Posted April 24, 2020 Not much new stuff, it would increase the page count. I wanted to remove things, in fact, but it will not be necessary. Would you please open a topic about the Companion, or bump up the topic we created some time ago? It would be interesting to summarize what can, could and should go into a companion according to today's requests and availabilities.
