Archivist Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Would it be possible to create a new forum for Generic D100 system questions? I mostly ask them here. lots of people seem to make their own "frankenstein" D100 hybrid so it would be cool to have a forum for that.

Baulderstone Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Personally, since BRP seems to be the nickname for the system family as a whole, I think it would be fine to stick Frankensteins in the general BRP forum. That forum also bears the subtitle " The chief Basic Roleplaying forum for the Great Family of D100 RPGs". Seems to me that Frankensteins fit within that definition. I'm not opposed to a new forum, but it might lead to posts in it getting neglected. It think that separate forums are better for offshoots that are big enough to support them Then again, maybe a forum centered on homebrewing D100 might work. I'm undecided.

Sean_RDP Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 It feels like it might be redundant, but I have not been on the forum long enough to feel that out. (Not to derail...) I was considering seeing if there might be a desire specifically for gamer design (as opposed to play or general) questions. Again though it might very well go unused.

Trifletraxor Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 As Baulderstone write, the BRP forum is the big d100 of all shapes and forms forum. While there is a OOP rulesystem with that name, the overwhelming majority of the threads within are concerned with general d100 stuff. A specific game design forum will not see enough activity I'm afraid. 2 Quote Ef plest master, this mighty fine grub! 116/420. High Priest.

sladethesniper Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 I am rather fond of generic d100 system questions. You may just want to make a thread of your own...like this one. Just post your questions here -STS 1 Quote Vhreaden: Blood, Steel and Iron Will is here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atgxtg Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 Another plus to just posting the idea/rule is that good ideas tend to get ported over from one variant to another. It's remarkably easy when most versions of D100 use the same basic system, stats, and skill scores. Even if someone mixes the two least compatible D100 based RPGs (say Privateers & Gentlemen with Legend). porting isn't all that difficult.

sladethesniper Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 The generic aspect of D100 systems and the fact that the BGB gives multiple options for how to handle different aspects of the game is one reason that my group is very pro-D100 and ports over every other setting into BRP. -STS Quote Vhreaden: Blood, Steel and Iron Will is here!

K Peterson Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 Seems like something that might be well-suited for the blog functionality here, rather than as a separate forum that might not get much traffic. For example: post your own Frankenstein on your BRPCentral blog, get some feedback in the comments section, see if other bloggers will participate, discuss. Engage in blog-community type posts. (I don't read Rpg blogs as much as I used to, but I know that some OSR blogs would have polls/Q&As among their community. What's your Top-10 modules, what do you think of this rule, what is your personal Appendix-N, etc). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
