They can be quite brutal, but they do play differently to level based games. It's more about careers and your experience points can buy you skills, as well as stats. From what I remember, the background is really rich because of the variety of jobs available.

A quick peek on Google shows some house rules to swap it over, but they look very light and unofficial.

« Last post by synik on December 06, 2018, 09:52:41 PM »Hi,
Many years back (*cough* 80s *cough*) I ran a Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay games for some schoolmates. If I'm honest, I pretty much winged it most days, using a combination of the main rules and the rather good 'something random happens' table from RuneQuest's Griffin Island. For our group, it seemed that a few ideas from that were enough to riff something together, and keep us entertained over lunch. At least, such are my memories.
So, I was rather chuffed to see these gems pop up on my newsfeed:

Both collections of dice driven events. Maybe you'll find them useful to spark some ideas or save time when it comes to creating NPCs.

GM and Players Lounge / Omicron 2.0 setting using D&D 3.5, Pathfinder and/or D&D 3e
« Last post by metalhead on August 15, 2018, 12:23:16 AM »I am looking to run a cross-dimensional / multi-realm setting, with varying levels of magic and tech depending on region. This would be some combination of D&D 3.0, 3.5 and/or Pathfinder for the system. Initially it will probably be tweaked pre-made adventures/campaigns until I get fully back into GM Mode. There would be limited restrictions on OGL and compatible D20 resources, so long as I have access to the specific resource and it wouldn't be game breaking relative to the system and other resources being used.
For this to work I am looking for a minimum of 4 players with a preferred party size of 6-8 for the initial party. As for posting frequency I am looking at about once every 2-3 days with two exceptions. One, so long as the game is moving and out of combat there is no specific set order of posting or absolutely required posting schedule, meaning some may skip posting and/or posting more often than others. Two, during combat a once per day posting is preferred.
