Ahti2 Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 I'd like to develop some rules for Mass Combat and Battles. I love the RQ6/Mythras mechanics about this issue, but I rule a classic dungeon campaign with a lighter system (between BRP and the MRQ SRD) and I need some ideas. OpenQuest contains a few elegant rules, but they are in the opposite side, too simple for my campaign. Do you know a d100 mass combat system in the happy medium, lighter than Mythras but more complete than Openquest? I have read something about MRQII Empires, but I haven´t that book and I don't know if it could be bought nowdays, or if it could be worthy for this purpose (too similar than the Mythras system, perhaps?). Thank you for read me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zit Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 There are such rules in Revolution d100. 2 pages, based on the conflict rules of the same rule set.

colinabrett Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 I downloaded a couple of sets of rules many years ago. One was written by Frederic Moulin and was hosted at Michigan State University. I don't know the author of the other set. You might be able to find them on the Internet Archive http://archive.org/web/web.php .

muminalver Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 MRQ 1 had a rules suplement that contained mass combat, think it was legendary heroes Don't know if its works, or if its to complicated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fulk Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 Pendragon has also had various versions of Mass Combat. The Boy King has a good one that I quite like, as does the Book of Battle. They are different but each is fun in its own right. The Boy King one had the army commanders chip away at each other's Army Value while also tracking the fate to the PCs. The Book of Battle is more focused on the PCs and requires tactical choices each round, the results of which affect the outcome of the Battle. Slightly different mechanic but transferable.
