[QUOTE="Raesene Andu, post: 1197091, member: 4825"] From what I have seen so far (the very short description and previews at [url]http://edenstudios.net/odyssey/7005.html[/url]) Fields of Blood appears to be a copy of the Birthright domain rules, even to the point of calling rulers Regents and kingdoms Realms, and having RP (although it is now Resource Pounts instead of Regency Points as it is in Birthright). Fields of Blood also uses provinces as a basis of a realm (and gives each province a terrain type, just like in Birthright). I imagine the rules have been expanded and changed considerably for Fields of Blood, but the similarities to Birthright are quite extensive IMO. And Arnwyn, you may consider the 3E Birthright rules neither highly rated nor compreshensive, but remember they are free. The BRCS was put together by a very small group of BR fans in their spare time, without a resources of a company behind them. It was mainly put together for the Birthright community though, not for other settings, although I'm considering an updated version that can be used with any setting. If anyone is interested you can download the current BRCS from [url]http://www.birthright.net/download/brcs-playtest.pdf[/url] [/QUOTE]
