Look at the one in Monarchies

Alpha, not Beta. And I can see the lineage; it's lineage is through the T&T CRPG as much as the TT... when we see advancement, I suspect a 7/7.5/D mode. I'm not surprised at all by the switch to a count-successes model; given that combat rolls can easily hit 6d, at which point expected...

Just resolve them in posting order.

Nor mine. More importantly, the legacy interface for my library plays much nicer with several bits of hardware I use.

Then just change it to a +3/-3. It's not a huge issue. I will say, Pugmire lives up to one of the failed promises of 5e... reducing the mods on rolls. It also cancels by the pair, unlike core 5e.

Plus there's a nice limit of 3 shorts before the rest needs to be a long. In re non-action... I didn't. I took something else on the list for inaction: they're yielding the spotlight to an NPC. It's not a golden opportunity... My golden opportunity moment, the Guardian leapt at the war wizard...

The one drawback of the Pugmire system (all 3 core games are one system and one setting, in 3 different subsettings) is that it's got some very heavy allegory on race-relations in the mid-20th C US, most visibly in the Monarchies adventure in the corebook. That can put it off of some people's...

D6 Space actually is what was slated to be WEG SW 3rd ed.

I had swingy bits in each fight. Plus in my follow-up on the cue at the end of the QPM's postlogue.

To be honest? Firefly (The Boardgame) the great big one with the map of the system and crew... as the mission generator, with the dirtside stuff resolved via Firefly (the RPG, Cortex Plus). Traveller isn't cinematic enough without tweaking under CT/MT/MGT1, and is too gritty on ships but too...

I got monarchies to table, not pugmire... Juneteenth is the right time to play its corebook's adventure...

Given that DH has no initiative, and only on PC fear rolls or fear spends can spotlights happen to have the adversaries act, it's pretty straightforward to handle it. My gut instinct is to put it at "If the PC has acted twice without fear, interrupt for a spotlight"

It's worth noting as well that the final fight's baddies are in two flavors, decidedly not equal threat (and called out by the tags on them: Bruisers vs Standards, both tier 1) and the area pops in more standards, not more bruisers. My players ran the clock down mowing the standards. Neither...

So going through my hard drive... Jackals: bronze age fantasy, set in a close analogue to the middle east, using a d100 based system, with both a system of awarded automatic advancements, and use-to-raise check rolls. No non-humans as PCs. Magic is linked to the culture of the caster. Several...

Pendragon has NPC dwarfs, but they're humans with growth dysfunction, and not available as PCs Elves in Pendragon are classic medieval elves, not the Tolkienian nor Victorian-Georgian ones. Forces of magic and destruction. And not available as PCs.

There are a few dozen as NPCs, none corresponding to Tolkienian Dwarves nor to Elves. The most common being the bakemono (goblins) and trolls. L5R 1 and 2 had way of the Clans books including two non-humans as playables: The Naga (snake people) and the Nezumi (Ratmen) I seem to recall there...

It had a one season TV show of its own, and it created a ready demographic to convince Fox there was an audience for a revised BTVS... It also was popular enough to draw the ire of BADD and several other anti-RPG groups... It may not have been important where you were, but it was definitely a...

Wed Fallout: Excavate Navy Exchange: Trade Goods

Keep in mind the labels go Minor < Major < Severe, and that's 1/2/3 HP. No PC can be killed in a single shot, as starting HP range from 5 (Bard, Wizard) to 7 (Guardian, Seraph). So, at worst, at level 1, everyone but Guardian and Seraph can be put down by 2 max strength hits. Hit points aren't...
