Oh man. A script was written for something called variously "Pandelume" or "Pandalume" or "True Dreams" or just "The RuneQuest Movie". Greg Stafford did his level best to have every trace of this scrubbed from history. You're probably not going to have much luck finding a copy, because those who...

OK. Still can't see that the pdf is actually available on DTRPG. It's in my library since I'm a backer, but it doesn't turn up in a search in the shop.

That's in PDF. "The important date is the date the general public can purchase the book." Edit: Also - not that I can see, it's not. Not unless you were a backer.

It's a pre-order. Not gonna ship this year, I'm sure.

Did I say it wasn't common? No. In fact I pointed out that a lot of designers try it out. That doesn't make it a good mechanic. Something that's popular can still be bad. ;)

Yeah, the whole idea of using your own HP as a resource is a really tricky mechanic. I've never seen it actually work well, yet so many people seem to think they're the ones who can finally make it work... :rolleyes: Edit: I think it can work as a desparation mechanic, for example if a magician...

Excuse me? Those are clearly modelled on the Me-109. 🤓😜

Wasn't Manganiello also supposed to take over the kickstarted, but now 12 years delayed, D&D documentary as well? Whatever became of that?

Yes.

Nimble also does this, except reactions also have to come out of your 3 per round allotment of actions. Your actions refresh at the END of your turn, so in theory you could react 3 times and then not have anything to do on your own turn, but that's a choice.
