Archivist Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 Are there any major differences between the HeroQuest 2 system as presented in Heroquest 2 vs Heroquest Glorantha and Satar Kingdom of Heroes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Scott Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 (edited) No, not with the actual system. HQG is HQ2.0.1 with slight changes to die rolling, difficulty levels, community rules to reflect the integration of Glorantha. Character generation is slightly streamlined but basically the same points build. Spirit Magic and Sorcery are more fully developed.

Archivist Posted September 6, 2017 Author Share Posted September 6, 2017 Hmm... Sounds like I need to go through HQ 2 and HQG2 to figure out the differences. I'm looking for non-glorantha, but my guess is since Glorantha was released later (2.1) it's probably better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just that HQ:G standardized some optional rules. HQ2 will work fine for your non-Gloranthan needs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonL Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 HQG takes several things that are options in HQ2 and specifies choices for its particular implementation. Mainly, those are: * Umbrella-style Keywords * High-roll wins tied success grades * List-style or mixed list/as-you-go character creation It also gives a clearer treatment of things like Soercery by way of presenting it in a Glorantha specific context. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
