You might consider using Low Fantasy Gaming RPG for Primeval Thule. Or just the Dark & Dangerous magic rules/madness rules. The bullet point summary for PT says it's low magic, but when you drill down into the detail it isnt so much. It's pretty easy to make it low magic however, easier than FR...

Low Fantasy Gaming RPG basically uses this method. Everyone rolls, but anyone can choose any array (possibly with a small penalty if you dont choose your own). You get the variety / avoid cookie cutter builds, but maintain intraparty balance.

Unfairly warned I say! My response was directly relevant to that opening post! But I dont want to cause any trouble, so I wont be so obvious in the future. If I feel like a mechanic (which happens to have been adopted for LFG) fixes a perceived problem, I dont see why I shouldnt say so/explain...

True, but how often can you risk resting for 1d4 or 1d6 days mid adventure. Pretty rarely ime.

Low Fantasy Gaming rpg does something like this - all classes effectively have partial refresh on a 5 min short rest (a check is involved), and a 1d6 day long rest. So everyone's on the same refresh meter. 5e will have problems with the party dumping all their strong abilities and blitzing...

All three (as well as the short/long rest variants) are from Low Fantasy Gaming rpg: https://lowfantasygaming.com/freepdf/

Low Fantasy Gaming: 1. Major Exploits, including Rescues 2. Party Retreat rule 3. Improvised Chase table 4. Short/Long rest mechanics (not the same as 5e)

5e cant do low magic; not without removing 85% of the subclasses.

Low Fantasy Gaming fixed the "let's long rest before we push on coz there's no reason not to" by making a long rest take 1d6 days (or 1d4 in an inn or similar). It also uses 5 min (not 1 hr) short rests, where PCs must make checks to get back an expended ability or half damage suffered (limit...

LOL! High level 5e party, with all it's magic, pretty much unstoppable if they can ambush you.

Hey Ezequielramone - sorry just saw this! Luck is according to HD, so just compare to a similar HD monster in LFG and use that (I've put the HD to Luck table in the GM part of the setting book coming out soon, but the above works just as well). You can probably use the AD&D stats without too...

How to make the fighter more fun: Make her a flexible, adaptable warrior, able to switch fighting style/armaments from round to round or combat to combat, to best meet her foe. Add in a some out of combat utility too. Then incorporate some kind of cool Martial Exploits in your combat system...

i prefer simply rolling init each round: keeps things nicely unpredictable, but simple and quick. No mods, inc no dex mod (which is plenty strong, without also needing to affect init).

ah true, we lose some time with bs too

If you use a fast combat system, you can get plenty done in two hours.
