    A couple home-rule balance questions

    I've been setting up a new campaign for a bit now and a couple things have come up that I'd like to ask balance advice on: 1) Our artificer (construct creation artificer) would be likely to go into lichdom for various storyline purposes. Is there anything unbalanced with having a construct...

    Names for stats.

    In am attempt to not derail Primitive Screwhead's thread any further I'm moving this discussion here. At that point though you might as well rename all the stats. If the entire idea behind these games is to create a consistent experience for people across genres doesn't it seem incredibly...

    Sniperfox47' and HunterWolf's Variants for WOiN

    A lot of rpgs have books full of rule variants so I thought I'd post a few that have worked for our group. I'll be putting any new variant rules, traditions, and races that we make in this thread. Licenses will be drawn up for all these pending further development in the game. Items prefixed...

    Abjure elements

    Other than its newfound ability to counterspell, and abjure nature for hedging, isn't the abjure spell list kind of... Underpowered? It seems as though abjure spells are designed to provide protection, but consider this: For 5mp you can create a set of full plate made of elemental force with...

    How will everything with the kick starter work?

    I apologize if this isn't the correct place to post this (feel free to move it to another board if it belongs there), but I haven't dealt with a kick starter before, and was wondering how this works now that its funded. 1) I heard mention of a survey, but haven't received anything in the mail...

    A Tradition I've Been Working On

    Atom Mlatom suggested people post more races to the database, and while I'm not ready to put up my races yet I do have one tradition and six variants of a monster to share with anyone who'd like to see.Short bit of background (skip if you don't give a darn): A player of mine a few years back...

    A couple issues noticed while building characters

    My little sister was interested in what I've been talking about, so I showed her the playtest documents, and we built a couple characters together. While we were running through it we came across a couple things that didn't pop up before: --- 1) Minimum Attributes: The rule under traditions...

    Magic Combat Tricks

    I was reading over the section for combat tricks, and was wondering, "Are magic attacks a valid situation for combat tricks"? Obviously the general situation tricks like roll-with-it and quickmount can benefit a mage, but I was wondering if "Magic Only Combat Tricks" would deserve a section with...

    A couple suggestions for spellcasting

    I don't mean to step on any toes here, I understand it's your game and it'll be made however you want, but I have a couple suggestions for spellcasting. A) Five new general augments (three with greater versions of two). The first two of these allow the creation of affects similar to many well...

    A couple rhetorical questions about spellcasting

    I have two questions about spellcasting in O.L.D., one is to do with the mp limits on target-agnostic spells, and the other has to do with writing spells into spellbooks. I understand that these sections are incomplete thus far; I understand I may not get answers to them right now, but thought I...

    Starship bombardment

    Are there any rules for starship vs planetary rules in the playtest document? If there is I couldn't find it. I'm not quite clear on just how massive and powerful the ships in new are supposed to be. While the nuclear launcher is scary to think about, it's also much larger weapon that most ships...
