Hi just been working on a super fast combat system and would like some assesment on issues and problems I might have. the % table is in no way finalised although suggestions on possible layouts would be welcome. the idea is its all the entire attack would be resolved from a single die roll with...

Hi wondered what people think of this idea. Some of the numbers below are intentionally vague as this idea is system unspecific. for obvious reasons these rules only apply to the heros. being "downed" mid combat sucks in roleplay. you just sit thier pointing out that if they don't revive you...

Hi I liked the combat system in Paranoia 2nd ed so much I stole it and started building my own system around it. Now you may ask why wouldnt I just use Paranoia straight up. Well I did initally. After I got the Paranoia book I GMed straight away without leaning the rules and it was mentel, fun...

Ok this idea just pinged into my head so bear with me if its a bit rough. starting with an equal party: 1)keep a count of gold/equipment rewards as each party member levels make a note of the average payout at each level. 2)when a chararcter dies. allow the player to roll up another. 3)level...

Hi I'd like some suggestions for encounters. each of the 6 encounters will be personalised to a character, allowing that character to shine. I've come up with a mass of encounters but im stuck as to where to go for these encounters. ive posted the plotline the encounter fits in, but as only 1...

Ive been trying to figure out a house rull to allow partys of varying level to adventure together. the problem is if you are 4 or more levels below the aveage, EVERYTHING can hit you and you cant hit ANYTHING. so I was thinking about removing the level restriction on items and trying a...

Ill be using this im my campaign some opinion on balance and how it will work please 1)minons have 2HP instead of 1. half damage deals bloodied damage to a minion. 2)rolling a natuaral 20 deals bloodied damage. If a player rolls a natural 20 , everybody shuts up and that player discribes what...

as long as you have used a move cost action and you have not moved your full amount you may use your minor as the same move. this move has a maximum of the left over distance. you must have access to this move action(so no using an enconter move that has already been spent in the move)
