Today, we look at Magic! Priests, wizards, witches and hedgewise, there is a specific distinction between them through their Career Traits. Similarly, there are thematic differences. Whereas a wizard may be a battle mage, necromancer, demonologist or otherwise, clerics may be a battle priest, a...

Let's take a look at a Starting Career at the end of Basic Tier. The Man at Arms is ready to move onward to his Intermediate Tier, and has made all of his necessary purchased such as Focus, Characteristic bumps and the four Talents. You'll also note that the Career Traits, Racial Traits and...

Today, we look at the healing rules in ZWEIHÄNDER. Note while this does not reflect the final language in the book, but it does address specifically injury, wounds and how to recover. Specific rules for use of the Heal skill are covered under the Heal skill entry, and are not outlined here...

Haha, already covered by the Animal Trainer! Here's a look at how they function from their unique Traits. I should note that Traits are unique to Starting Careers, each received two up front during character creation and cannot be purchased as Talents by other players. Essentially, your...

The Strike to Stun forum has a number of threads to dig through, but I thought I'd share the completed list of Starting Careers. They cover most of the base careers offered through WFRPG, although some have different names. If you feel I may have missed any original careers (or have a...

Thanks for the well wishes! Corehammer was the initial project name internally with our play tests groups. It evolved into CORE RPG over time. It was used mostly to distinguish between versions we were running in parallel with different groups to test the rules under different circumstances...

ZWEIHÄNDER Grim & Perilous RPG - a Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay retroclone Hello all! I am unsure if this is the correct forum to post this or not, but I'm looking to do a bit of self-promotion. I've been running a tabletop game set in my homebrewed world for a good 15 years at this point. About...

I password protect it because I don't want its content crawled by Google. If you register, I'll get you set up as a reader. The website functions as a fully-searcheable wikipedia, with over 1,270 pages at this point. I've catalogued every NPC, player character, event, map, place, region, city...

It's been months since I have updated here. I thought I'd share what I'd like to call "Welcome to Deismaar". http://beyondthepalerpg.com The world of Deismaar is a project several years in the making. After our stint with Forgotten Realms in the early 90's, and our move towards Planescape, our...

Wargames met their death knell in the 90's. Computer strategy games have nearly replaced them all (with perhaps rare exception to the almost cult-like following behind Warhammer). Mearls seems to indicate that there is some similar trends amongst tabletop games, and WotC has to adapt to some...

Looks great! But one bit of feedback - it would be nice to have a filter for Powers by Level. Right now, there are only filters for Type, Action and Usage. This would help me assign powers by simply selecting ones that fit other monsters by level. Cheers, Daniel

(this power is meant to be an alternative to the feat power Cutthroat Specialist) Finish Him Feat Power You execute a finishing blow that disheartens your foes Daily ✦ Martial, Weapon Immediate Reaction Ranged Sight Target: One creature Requirement: Cutthroat Specialist feat Trigger: You kill...

It's total cheese; I don't allow it in my games.

WotC, if you're reading this - please include the ability to rename powers (with the original power name in small parenthesis below the listing) in the August update! ;) Patiently yours, Daniel

A campaign wiki that's fully searchable by term, hyperlinked and weekly updates from the last campaign session. For instance - The Last Cataclysm: Year 200 / A Tale of Stained Honor

Dump AC, impliment DR. Dump stats, impliment passive and active Fortitude/Reflex/Will stats to govern to hit/defenses. Expand the skill list, governed by trained and active Fortitude/Reflex/Will "active" stats Standardize weapon damage by simple, military and superior (one handed, two handed...

Ten dollars is still far too much for a PDF core system. Truth be told, the price of PDFs is primarily why there is so much damn piracy. I feel people are far more reticent to purchase PDFs at any price above 5 dollars, as opposed to gambling away 30 bucks on a hardcover product.

I use the iTunes program to help manage track lists for major cities, ambience in forests, cityscapes, battles and military camps, while employing Atmosphere Deluxe for natural soundscapes of wharfs, people in markets, seasonal weather, thunderstorms and the like. You can run both in...

We track ammo, and allow a player to carry twenty arrows in his quiver/bolt case/gunpowder sack. If the player makes a successful saving throw at the end of the encounter, he can recover all of his ammunition. If not, they're simply gone.

Half undead, for real? This is precisely why I hate high fantasy. /handwaves these trivial absurdities away
