    GOD RULES: Player's Guide (5e) Kickstarter Pre-Launch Page

    July 1st is the date when the Kickstarter begins. I should have the writing finished by the end of the Kickstarter. 🤞 But its possible Stretch Goals and the Artist Sketch Edition might add 4-6 weeks to Production. With the Print versions shipping 4-6 weeks after that. So PDFs in around...

    Yes it will and it has its own illustration too! :cool:

    Superman is probably the trickiest character to pin down since he has the most showings and his main Superpower is heroism so he always wins in the end. Additionally, DC Comics are crazy about just boosting all their characters by virtually any factor should the story warrant it. However. By...

    In my experience no long form entertainment has consistent logical power scaling. But making these things consistent and logical is basically what I do for fun. ;) So while no system will be 100% accurate it can still be the best fit for for each verse. My goal with these rules is to create a...

    Once you crack the matrix that is 5e D&D damage the whole thing scales into place. Of course it might seem weird at first that a planet only has 5000 HP or whatever, but with Damage Threshold and Gravitational Regeneration you won't be blowing one up until you are ready to.

    That's a fairly common trope in comic books as well.

    Outliers are very common in all such discussions. But they are not something I would hang any Verse framework upon. If course my system doesn't need to tone anything down. So you can pick any interpretation you want amigo. My preference for these sort of things is to take the most logical and...

    I don't know enough about what was going on to say who is wrong or right on the matter. My general opinion would be to default back to the 'Space Cheese' excuse rather than have Piccolo jump from mere Kiloton power to Moon-shattering power within the span of two narrative episodes. I agree...

    I think I mentioned it before, but I have a few nods to Mystara in the book - one of which is (IMO) awesome and answers what happened to those Hierarchs who gave up their immortal power and then made it back to Hierarch status only to be swarmed by Blackballs...and vanish? Could also show the...

    In Versus debates there is a term called "Space Cheese" that often applies in these situations. I just watched the whole fight, we can clearly see the effect of the Special Beam Cannon on a mountaintop - its clearly (at best) low Kiloton Range and no better than that. Here is a high-rated...

    No need to go smaller than tiny because of the Sliding Scale of my new system. Just change from metres to millimetres to have 'Huge' size Giga-Fleas. Or go from metres to micrometers to fight Blood Cells. Drop down further and battle DNAngels, Virus Hydras and so forth. I'll have all that...

    Yes. I detailed these in the Player's Guide (even though its more apropos for the Bestiary). Just to clarify these are vastly simplified from my 3.5E sizes and are deliberately vague on the exact number of feet. For instance a creature might be 'Mountainous' = Mountain-sized, or 'Galactic' =...

    ...looking into it a bit more... Piccolo's Special Beam Cannon - which killed Raditz was (at that point) akin to a low yield nuke. Splitting the difference (between 1 KT and 1 MT) lets say 30 Kilotons = 735 damage by my rules. I have rules for that in the book. If he was Hypersonic he would...

    Hey there John! :) I am perfectly open to hearing other's opinions on how powerful this or that character 'should be'. I'm fairly well versed in numerous verses but I am sure there are many who know more about DragonballZ, Warhammer or whatever and if they can shed any insights I'll be happy...

    Challenge Rating 12 Depends what you mean by 'take on' and whether you are looking for an Easy, Moderate or Difficult encounter but likely Divine Ranks 15-18 which is (fittingly) where I have the Chaos Gods. At that level of power you would be shrugging off Planet-busting attacks so the vast...

    I was thinking specifically of 40k Space Marines...the weakest versions of them - obviously Custodes and Primarchs would be higher. As I mentioned previously most Sci-fi Troopers are just basic humans), but the 40k Space Marines are bio-engineered and what I would call 'proper' Kardashev Scale...

    Yes there are actually a few that play off that sort of trope. That chapter is still being worked on though so a few things might be subject to change. Although I am fairly certain I'll stick with 8D Tenebricose which is matter that has never been touched by God's Presence. I guess it's akin to...

    Well I have loads of ideas for Epic Elementals (including a bunch of cool ones in the Bestiary). But not sure I have the full structure in place as yet for elementals of each dimension, at least not one I am happy with. It's like I have all the pieces, but just not sure what order to put them...

    I'm okay with sharing the core rules. Not so sure about the individual Epic Spells, Artifacts and Dimensional Forging Materials though.

    I don't think it will need much conversion...if any, to fit 3.5e/Pathfinder. Point noted about the OGL though. I'm more familiar with the OGL, so maybe I will stick with that.
