Hmmmm. Ghostwalk. To my mind it was so close to being a great setting. What spoiled it was the "now what?" feeling I had in my stomach after finishing the readthru. It didn't help that ghosts weren't ghost as they're defined in the MM, but something else entirely. Maybe they should have called...

Excellent! I keep threatening to run an adventure called "Return to the Expedition" on my players, full of old jokes from D&D's past. The PC encounter a load of random monsters sat around a table playing cards. Yes, it's the Wandering Monster Table. You know the drill. Problem is, they claim...

Nice work, jc, and thanks for the praise. It's currency round these parts :) I look forward to seeing more contributions!

Very neat :) Welcome to the microfarm, Satori. I love me my little baby Microlite too, and I'm just happy to share it around. I like your micro-magic system in particular. Feel free to add it to the Macropedia!

Pretty good so far, Ryan. If you head in the direction you're going btw, you'll reach a point where hit points become redundant as weapon "damage" could just become fixed bonus to your attack roll (unarmed +0, dagger +3, shortsword +4, longsword +5, etc). They you'll need to find something to...

Hmmmm..... There's a lot of appeal to the idea. I especially like the idea of Might, Insight and Style in effect being additional saving throws. I'd love to be able to tell one of my players to Save vs. Style. :) It's the beginning of a good idea. I like. The Might secondary stat could easily...

Sounds good to me, Ryan! Bounce away.

Phew. I've been offline for a while (ok, a few months, on and off. Ouch!), but (as of about 5 minutes ago), we're baaaaaaaaaaack :) Boy, am I glad too. Big Shiny will be out when my gamer group gets back into Microlite20. Right now we're stuck in the middle of an (excellent) d20 Modern...

So much happens when I'm busy :) Grimstaff, I've uploaded your lovely setting here. I love me some City States! Many thanks. Al has kindly agreed to release Lands of Lyrion under the OGL license. This means that this is a seting that’s free for anyone to use, customize and personalize however...

There. I've added both set of Turning Undead rules to the Macropedia over here . Enjoy. Unless you're Undead, of course.

Hasn't it just? Hellol, Deimodius. A new contributor to this thread is always a pleasure. Same here. I ran out of things to take away :) - and that, after all, is what M20 is all about. Adding is cool too. Oh yes. {snip} I'm kinda snowed today, but I'll add Deimodius and Darrell's take on...

Folks, I'm pleased to announce that Microlite20 made the front page of ENWorld last Friday as one of the highest replied-to threads in the forums :) Well done, guys!! If you're a first time visitor to this thread, all hail and well met. I hope you enjoy your stay. Rather than expecting you to...

I'm with you all the way here Steel_Wind. We're about to return to D&D after a long break from the system. We've been playing 4th Edition GURPS (WWII), HARP, Warhammer and a lot of Mutants & Masterminds in the meantime, and having a blast. Now, we're all refreshed and eager to hit the dungeons...

Man, that's excellent, and //exactly// what Microlite20 is designed for. you make me happy

Interesting idea. Maybe something like Risus' cliche idea might work for this; pick a schtick, situation or trait for your character, get a +2 when it applies. Kinda like 1,001 of all the Feats out there, but genericized. 5 talent points is too many though; I'd suggest 2 at 1st level, with an...

I'm thinking of simplifying it even further, just to: Everybody just gets one attack. Works for me :)

Sounds good to me. Considering I've still to .finalize the Big Ugly pdf of Microlite20, all the rules, options, adventures and game settings due to work commitments.......... ........anyone fancy working on Microlite20 4th Edition? :) And if so, what would you change?

I'd go the Mutants & Masterminds route all the way. Provide archetypes rather than character classes, and go all points-based. That way a beginning player can pick an archetype, and start playing immediately, or tweak it a little, or start completely from scratch. Perfect. For that matter, I'd...

The server is kinda dead right now, but should hopefully be back online in the (very) near future, according to the admins. Fingers crossed till then........

Wow. So many opinions. All of them good :) The thing is, with GURPS vs. HERO, you're comparing two games that are both very, very good indeed. I've been a long-time player and DM of both, and love them both equally well. HERO served as our superhero RPG system for almost 15 years, and it's only...
