Fergo113 Posted June 10, 2010 Author Share Posted June 10, 2010 Sorry, guess I should give an update (considering mezcaless question above). Right now the Magic Chapter is finished and I am proof reading it (almost finished!) and than I will do a final edit. I then have to finish the table of spells at the back of the chapter and it will be ready to post. I'll place a copy without images in the downloads section here and then if people want the fully imaged version, they can send me a personal message and I'll give them a link to download it. Currently the imaged version is around 8meg as a PDF. Thanks Baron too for your advice and encouragement. So all going well, I hopefully should be able to post the Magic Chapter by the end of June.

Fergo113 Posted June 19, 2010 Author Share Posted June 19, 2010 Well its finally done! Chapter 7 for ME-BRP is finished and available if anyone wants a copy. Just send me a private message here at BRP Central and remember to include an email address where I can send the FileFactory link to. The pdf is around 9.5meg and is about 90 odd pages (and over 150+) spells of Middle-earth goodness. It includes rules and spells for Blessings from the Valar and also necromancy. Over the next few weeks I'll make an image free version and load it up here at BRP Central. I'll be taking a months break from my work of ME-BRP as I am re-writing my City of Heroes document to make a complete sourcebook. The Quickplay pdf here at the Downloads section I'm not happy with, so I am completelly re-writing it. Cheers, Fergo113 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhilHibbs Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 The original format I had in draft was set out in the following chapters: 1 Overview of Middle-earth 2 Character Creation 3 Professions 4 Mechanics 5 Special Abilities 6 Combat Rules 7 Magic 8 Equipment and Magical Items 9 The Free Peoples 10 Creatures Appendix: Map's and other stuff Is there any chance of Chapter 8 arriving at some time? I've only just discovered this thread and have flicked quickly through Creatures, looks absolutely fantastic, thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fergo113 Posted March 15, 2011 Author Share Posted March 15, 2011 G'day PhilHibbs, Chapter 8 is about 1/5 completed. I haven't worked on it recently as I was fixing up the City of Heroes BRP that I did some time back. However, since then I found Mutants and Masterminds and that kind of put the blocks on my City of Heroes re-write. So I guess I'll go back to doing Chapter 8, though it will take the next few months to finish. I just have a lot on my plate and I haven't had the time to work on it. Also my rpg group disbanded and so its hard to give it a "field test" so to speak. Keep you posted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merak Gren Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Hi Fergo113. Just wondering how you getting on and hoping you haven't abandoned this project. Thanks Damon Quote Likes to sneak around 115/420 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fergo113 Posted September 13, 2011 Author Share Posted September 13, 2011 Hi Damon, No I haven't abandoned the project. I am still plugging away at Chapter 8 and am about 2/5 done on it right now. I have just finished a course the last week and was overseas before that and so this took me away from working of ME-BRP for a while. So I should be able to get back to Chapter 8 now that I have more time to spend on it. Keep you posted. Cheers, Fergo113 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lubidius Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 Fergo113. Greetings. Thank you for producing these ME-BRP docs. I'm in the process of writing my own campaign file for a Second Age game using Legend, and your documents thus far are extremely nice. Bravo. My document (not complete in any way shape or form) is here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fergo113 Posted January 10, 2012 Author Share Posted January 10, 2012 Thanks for the link Lubidius. I'll check it out. I always found the setting era from ICE's Middle-earth Role Playing (MERP) game to be the one that was the most interesting setting for playing in as it predates the finding by Bilbo of the ring and covers periods around the fall of Arnor in the Third Age. I've always wanted to explore doing Beleriand as a setting as well but that would be a lot of work to do and I'm finding it hard enough just to finish the core ME-BRP chapters that I am working on when time permits.

DocManj Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 Fergo113, Just wanted to express my immense appreciation for all of your hard work on your Middle Earth BRP write-ups. You have done a brilliant job. I especially enjoyed the Magic write-up. First time a magic system has felt right for the Middle Earth world to me. I am hoping to begin a BRP Middle Earth campaign shortly with my local gaming group based largely off of your work. Please keep those updates coming.

Kairos Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 Just had to +1 the praise. We used these rules for a Fantasy Grounds based game, and I remember thinking on my first read: "Yeah, that's how Elves should be statted." My print-outs of your docs have a prominent spot on my BRP shelf. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocManj Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 Well, my group and I are going to roll up characters this week. The party looks to consist of: Gondorian nobleman/warrior Sindarin Elf Scout Dwarf warrior Dunedain Ranger Gondorian Mage Very much looking forward to getting characters rolled up and getting started soon.
