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.

I was thinking Creative Commons and then other people can use these Rules in other books - which would be cool. That said I haven't made a final decision on that. What do you guys think?

I knew some of you are just going to go crazy with it. :love: Well there's 'planned' and then there is 'likely to show up in a book'. I have angels up to Divine Rank 26. But to make them more interesting I have a sort of Dimensional Flip going on where the Angels of the Astral Sea would be...

I think stopping at Divine Rank 30 was the best fit. It sort of parallels the official rules with 30 creature Challenge Ratings. I mean I know some of you guys will want to play all the way to Divine Rank 30 and beyond, but I think it works best to be taking on threats more powerful than the...

The highest detailed rank is Divine Rank 30 (the Supreme Being) and is effectively just a metaphor for the Games Master. There are hypothetical ranks beyond that I have plotted out but it all gets a bit meta-meta after that. If I can get a few books under my belt with these rules I might tackle...

You are probably talking DR 18/CR 84-ish to casually destroy a Galaxy (in my rules), though I am sure it could be done at lower power levels with prep/Epic Spells/Items etc. A Demiurge would be CR 88-96 (Divine Ranks 19-21). With CR 100 being a full 'Monad'. Technically DR 19-22 (Eternal Tier)...

Was a bit pushed for time earlier. One of the problems with the Kardashev scale is that a lot of 'humans' in sci-fi are still just human. So you have to make a separate case for those kitted out in cutting edge tech/bio-upgrades, weapons and armour. Eventually these things all seem to merge...

I think I am right in saying they would be 3.5 to 4 on the Kardashev Scale. But the disparity is always distinguishing between the race itself and technology. I think my preliminary thoughts are the CR of 'soldier's would double over Kardashev scales 0.7 - 5. 0.7, Modern Marine = CR 3 1...

Those all sound like really cool ideas, although I still think isolating ranks is just giving you (the designer) and the GM some combination of more work/less options. You are giving yourself exponentially more work with this approach... ...but you do love designing monsters. :+) D&D is...

Cool. I would say Challenge Rating is 2/3rds Level. So Level 36 = CR 24 = a Demigod (Very powerful). With Ainz effectively a Lesser Deity summoning 5 Demigods is unbalanced - though it does require a sacrifice of 10,000 souls per Dark Young. Typically summoning 5 Demigods would be a Level...

We have multiple ways to convert that character to my system. Levels do not increase beyond 20th in my system, but each Divine Rank (in game terms) is roughly +5-6 Levels. So Divine Rank 4 is approx. Level 40-44. Divine Rank 4 means a mortal caster that could cast 9th level spells would have 4...

Ah okay. So an Intermediate God could never fight a Greater God in your system? But doesn't that mean you alienate the other ranks and previous monsters from your own Immortals play and thus require infinitely more new monsters to actually 'flesh out' each rank? Officially Epic characters...

I use Dragonball as the benchmark, but I have also factored things like Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo. So you should be able to duplicate any character from Anime using this system. The tiers are set up to scale to different levels of Collateral Damage: Atomic, Continental, Cosmic (Planetary/Stellar)...

It's interesting how you took a different approach buddy. However, how do you know each of your ranks is x10 better than the last? At first glance your Hierarch seems on par with my Quasi-deity...which is only equivalent to 3 epic characters. Also wouldn't that mean your Rank 2 Balor is 100...
