Thaenor Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 Just discovering this gem that was/is a BRP supplement, is there any more information re this press release from Mindjammer Press about a Runequest 6 conversion?Details here....http://mindjammerpress.com/2014/03/21/mindjammer-press-and-the-design-mechanism-announce-the-chronicles-of-future-earth-for-runequest-6th-edition/#comments Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trechriron Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 Also very interested! This would be an ideal fusion of setting and system IMHO. Quote Trentin C Bergeron Bard, Creative, & RPG Enthusiast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simlasa Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 I'm anxiously awaiting that one as well. The original never got the support it deserved.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simlasa Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 Well, crap! Now the future of this project seems to be... vague. Going by words of Ms. Newton on the Mindjammer forum it might not end up as an 'RQ6' project at all. Seemingly lost in the fog brought on by Chaosium's internal contortions (confusions?).  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baulderstone Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 I don't know if we can blame this one on the instability of the RQ line. I already had the impression her attention had shifted away from before any of this started. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
threedeesix Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 I agree, as it was to be a product compatible with RQ6 anyway, it would have had nothing to do with Chaosium. I know Sarah and she is a VERY busy woman. I think it just comes down to time.

clarence Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 Does anyone have a link to her statement? Quote    FrostByte Books M–SPACE  d100 Roleplaying in the Far Future Odd Soot  Science Fiction Mystery in the 1920s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baragei Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 Linkage: http://www.modiphius.com/forum.html#/20151120/chronicles-of-future-earth-5080688/ I might be getting ahead of myself, but my impression of the new CoFE was that the core fluff was pretty much worked out, and only lacked game mechanical details, polish and stamps. I hope she sticks to working it out with TDM, because that would be pretty awesome. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simlasa Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 5 hours ago, Baulderstone said: I don't know if we can blame this one on the instability of the RQ line. Maybe I was reading into the part where she wrote, "Right now with the changes at Chaosium we're taking a view on what system we're going to release the game for and will be working that out shortly." Of course, she also says they're waiting on seeing how the trilogy of fiction performs... and AFAIK that isn't out yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mankcam Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 Well if its a Chaosium project then I guess it may use the upcoming RQ rules. I would rather she produced it for the RQ6 rules myself. The upcoming RQ rules will likely be Gloranthan-specific, whereas TDM already have a near-generic rule set just sitting there 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!"

Simlasa Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 It was announced as a RQ6 supplement/setting... the original, introductory, setting book having been for BRP/Chaosium. I too hope they decide to stay with TDM's system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akrasia Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 Yeah, I too hope it continues with RQ6 as well. I have the BRP version, which is pretty cool, but would like the setting fleshed out more. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
