[QUOTE="dave2008, post: 9305634, member: 83242"] The immortal rules you downloaded is a fairly straightforward translation (to 5e) of the old D&D [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dungeons_%26_Dragons_Immortals_Rules']Immortals Rules[/URL] from 1986. I good starting point (which was my starting point as well), but not a robust set of rules as a platform for a modern RPG. FYI, I was headed in a direction similar to what you suggested. Though there was some bit of increasing numbers (I felt you had to show some advancement that way); however, the major increase came at each tier/ divine rank (every 5 levels) when your power jumped by 10. However, instead of all your numbers (HP, damage, & DR) going up by 10, you just change their modifier. So demigod might have 250 macro HP, while a greater god might have 300 tera HP. So the greater gods numbers have only increased by 50, but it actually has over 1,000x the number of hit points.
