I'm quoting myself again. Sheesh. Here's the first draft. I'll playtest it later, this is just off the top of my head. Kinda wordy for M20, but it might be useful to other folks out there. Comments welcome!

W, that's great! You guys never cease to amaze me......... Pssst....I'm working converting the FUDGE 4x5 magic system Magic system over to M20 right now for the Macropedia, at the request of one of my players. He's thinking about running some kind of Ars Magica-style game using M20 as the core...

The entire rules, maybe? :) We could have a first - a game where the GM screen is the rules, complete with monsters, spell lists and equipment. Wouldn't that be cool - gaming with no rulebooks at all, just a screen to hide behind. Hmmmmmm..........

Hey, I love cantrips! They're a great way to inject a little more magic into a setting, and work especially well in Eberron with it's slightly-more-magic-than-normal feel. Especially if you allow the feat which allows any character to choose and use three cantrips, three times per day. Innate...

Exactly. But without the pie. Or the Orc. Maybe something along the lines of: 1. Empty Next year I plan to release the World's Smallest City too....... 1. Shop. Empty. Is it possible to take minimalism too far?

Hey! I just had a thought. It's a good thought. It's the bestest thought ever. No, it's better than that. It's the bestest thought ever in the history of thoughtness. I'm going to create, just for Microlite20, THE ADVENTURE. The one. The one that's going to encapsulate everything about M20, in...

FANTASTIC! W (can I call you W? Thanks.), please post up the files when you're done. That's just too darned good to ignore. As regards putting a non-linear XP system (or a linear one, for that matter) onto M20, I'm all for it. Post it up in the Macropedia and let's open it up for review. Same...

yep, spot on. Reflex saves are usually phys+DEX Fortitude is phys+STR Will is just MIND, or maybe com+MIND. Whichever. Mind you, the flexibility is there so it's entirely possible to use different saves against the same thing: GM: "The Evil Magi chants and a fireball errupts toward...

Minor update: I've updated the .rtf so it's the latest version. Same for the Pocketmod edition of the Core Rules; thanks again, Bytor. All of the links on the download page in the Macropedia work. Woohoo! Oh, and there's a plain text version of the Core Rules to be found at...

Nope. Not any more. Co-incidentally I wrote about self-same thing a day or two ago: http://wiki.greywulf.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl/LupusGris/AllAmericanHeroes (warning, politics 'n' stuff. Don't say I didn't warn ya!)

Correct, bytor. If the poor mook doesn't notice them (ie, fails a Spot (sub+MIND) check), they get hit hard. Meanwhile, work is still ongoing on the Macropedia. If y'all want a sneak peek, hope over to http://wiki.greywulf.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl/Macropedia/Microlite20Macropedia. Comments, feedback...

Good resource links, thanks, bytor. Now on to other busines......... I'm going to start work on the House Rules Macropedia. Or rather, we are :) I'm going to put together a wiki over the next day or two to store the House Rules. It'll be broken down into sections like Race, Class, Skills, etc...

Sounds a perfect candidate for the M20 treatment. I'd love to hear people's tales from Hommlet. I'd suggest no conversion is needed though - that's the whole idea behind M20 :) Just play them straight, estimating the creatures as you go using the given HD and hp. Attack bonus = HD (or maybe a...

Obviously pdf2pocketmod is pro-European. Obvious, really. Try creating your .pdfs in A4 format, then converting them. If that doen't work, sing "God Save the Queen" in a loud voice, off key. That always works. EDIT: Yes, I used to work in tech support. It's amazing the things you can get people...

Not really, but I'm sure you can extrapolate the rest :)

Fear not, Chicken Little! The pocketmod is exactly the same .pdf as the full sized version, just run through pdf2pocketmod.exe. You should (hopefully) be able to generate a new one that fits. If there's any problems, I'll post up the .rtf as well. I won't let the sky fall. Not yet, anyway.

Thanks for the suggestion. In the final version, I pared it down to: If the total bonus is +6 or more a second attack can be made with a -5 penalty. If the total bonus is +11 or more a third attack can be made at -10. For example, if the total bonus is +12, three attacks can be made at...

btw - just to throw a bucket of spanners into the mix - I've updated the whole EL thing in the Microlite20 Core doc. It now reads: Encounter Level = Hit Dice of defeated monsters, or the given EL for the trap, situation, etc. Add +1 for each doubling of the number of foes. eg: 1 kobold = EL1. 2...

Cool! Just so you know, the font is Verdana 14pt; it's about the minimum usable for Pocketmods while still being ok for full sized too. Anything bigger/smaller way would mean I'd have to create two versions. And that would never do.

Lol! You're easily pleased my friend. So, what think you of the adventure? I'd forgotten just how darned hard it was to /write/ these things.......
