This questions applies to both versions of Mage: Awakening and Ascension Have you played or run a long campaign (chronicle) of Mage? if so, how hard was it to run? Was it easy or hard to make adventures and plots? If you have played Mage = how did you pick and create your character...

Fair point. And to be honest, no we won't be playing Pugmire. At least, not for this particular concern. At this point Talislantia is the winner, (Not sure yet on 4th or 5th editon) we will try that first, give it a good solid campaign and see where we go from there. It has the most "out...

Pugmire has long been on my list. OH how I long to play a Corgi Paladin. I WILL HERD THEE TO RIGHTIOUSNESS!!!

Oh my what is this amazing madness! The art alone! yes!

Ohhhh!!!! I will certainly check this out, thanks!

I would like to see some RPGs that genuinely develop non-human races, culture, histories, etc. I can make all that up... but.. i'm old and I'm tired. Can someone else do that for me this time? :P

So, part of me as an old fart knows that GURPS has this... but I don't recall GUPRS going much into details for races. It's been a few years, lol. What are the best race books for that? DO they have a side Races and cultures book kinda like sword and sorcery used to?

Oh, I have Everway, never opened it up... don't recall any non-human characters though... What am I missing?

So many good suggestions! Wow! Keep them rolling in! I saw this one mentioned = Talislanta Seems largely diverse? How is its setting details, are they interesting or just a little lite notes?

I didn't consider Numenera. It's humans only, but... they are super strange. So that may be ok. Symbaroum.. it really only has two non-human races in its main book ,plus what is clearly a Elf )half elf) of the style i am avoiding. Does that game have any extended race books? Veil of...

Yeah, I guess like someone else mentioned, as long as I can either ignore it, or its quite different (which, to a degree, i am not even sure Warhammer Fantasy gets far enough away from it... hmmm) I really want to try and dig deep here, find some gems - or at least some stuff that is decent...

I am lookin to expand out, and try a few new RPGs. I am looking to see what everyone here would recommend for a fantasy game that has = A rich and detailed setting (I don't want to write by own world or write my own races, etc) no elves no dwarves (I want to get far away from anything that...

Apocalypse World second edition for sure. It's mechanics can handle any vehicle from regular, hover, flying, to even starship battles. You could even re-skin them to be in terms of battle mecha too. It has rules for anything you want to do in vehicle combat, even jumping and taking over...

There are quite a few rules in the book for how many weapons you can carry, how many you can wield, and how to swap armor you have. It also does say you can carry 5 of each Consumable items... which is odd when the game kinda also has "no limit on carry stuff" Since its clear on weapons and...

Under Loot , there is a section on Consumables. And while "food, torch, rope, etc" of base sundry items for adventure is not listed - I think that is where you would use that rule. it seems to fit perfectly with their description of = "Consumables are loot that can only be used once. You can...

I saw the pages on programming a CPU. It was fun, and whimsical ...but... since I don't watch CR.... um.... why is that there? :)

I really like all that you said here, is that in the rules as written? or is that just Matt making extra stuff up that actually is not a rule or mechanic (the whole soul eaten, scars less capable, etc) ?

This should already work for how I have it listed above. :D need a Cone? Just order the Area 5ft squares in any pattern you wish. Components? easy, just adds 1 extra "mana" you have to work with. Not required. Want your fireball to 'look' like a fire demon? Sure, just add to Saving Throw...

Ohhh! Interesting idea! Here, how close does this get for giving that a try? I think with a little creative narration this covers about 70% of all wizard spells? Dynamic Spells D&D You get 1 Mana per level + 1 per INT bonus. Feats can give more, maybe +4 base Mana for a “spellmaster”...

NO. The problem has nothing to do with how big the catalogue of powers/feats/goodies is. The problem lies in that people think D&D and Pathfinder are RPGs. They are Wargames with lipstick, and 5e is an example of someone putting even more lipstick on it... Creativity comes from "room to...
