ack no! It sounds like a horrible setting!

Since I haven't had any luck getting an Alternity game going I'm going to try my luck at getting something going that I've been wanting to do for years. Is anyone up for playing 3.5 with a deck of cards instead of dice?

gurps or alternity would would quite well.

Some things, they just need killin. I'm just happy to be the one to do it.

Trying to put together an Alternity group. Possible campaigns include * Mutant Rising (PL 5): In the near future the divisions between rich and poor are stark and unbending. Mutants have begun to appear in the slums. Feared and despised, they are forced to hide their abilities and band...

I suggest a duel to the death. The loser gets cremated and tossed in a bag, to be resurrected later. He then must leave the party.

If anyone's interested, I started an E6 group at the WotC site. Right now it only has a single wiki page with a link to this thread and the pdf, but hey you gotta start somewhere. Whoops! Browser Settings Incompatible

No, they'd have to release something that interests me. I don't like 4e, so I'm no longer a customer. However, I think the rules might actually work with Dark Sun and I'll probably give that a go. If they really want me back they'll make Alternity 2nd Edition. I have a hunch that might not...

I'm currently trying to get an Alternity game up and running. Alternity has a great initiative system: The first thing you need to do is figure out your action check score. Your action check score is the average of your dexterity and intelligence, +1 to +3 based upon your profession. There...

oh, dear, god....

The problem is that they messed up the forums. I love the new features, but the forums are just plain difficult to navigate now. It does look like they will be fixing it though.

No. And die.

I really like this incantation.

It's a toss-up between Harn and Birthright. Harn is beautifully detailed but Birthright might be more useful.

That annoys me as well. I'm trying to get a new campaign up and I've been waiting all week for that forum to be back online.

It's still buggy, but so far I love it. I've already started 2 groups (Phoenix Gamers and Bring Back Alternity). If only someone would start a Birthright and an E6 group...

I've got one player so far, need 3-5 more.

I like wisdom being used for surprise rounds, it totally makes sense. The max strength damage is also interesting, kind of a throwback to the 2nd edition dart rule.

The Earth is no more, devoured by dying Sol. Thankfully Earth’s scientists were able to predict the cataclysm, allowing time to construct titanic space transports capable of saving enough of humanity to be reborn on far off Novus Terra. The Ark is the greatest of these transports, home to 100...

Yeah. 1 hit point, no damaging attack, no hands for spellcasting. If he just wants to be a buzzing knowledge factory that's fine, but outside of that he can't be a viable character.
