Troll Lord Games

A few suggestions in addition to looking at Crypts and Things. Check out D.H. Bogg's Dragons at Dawn for an interesting way to handle magic - basically, the magic user has to create things in a lab but only the GM knows if the roll to create them was successful until the magic user actually tries to...

<t>Certainly sound like viable options at low levels. When you get to higher level magic that may be a bit of a problem with the more powerful spells.<br/> <br/> A variation I've seen on Option 2: you memorize the spell and roll to cast (any number of times per day), if you fail by a certain amount ...

<t>Not yet but I keep looking at it.<br/> <br/> In fact, I had a T&T style Rogue class around somewhere on the old HD.<br/> <br/> Basically though you just take Fighter, Wizard and Cleric then toss the rest. Change the Cleric's name to Rogue, reduce their spell casting and throw out all other Cl...

<t>Toon, Gurps, and Cartoon Action Hour Season 2 would all work. They are a little free form though so if the kids want a pre-defined set of abilities for an animal they are out of luck. In fact, if you do GURPS at all, then as a GM who wishes to remain sane, you should make templates for all the an...

<t>So my FLGS got Silver Age for Mutants and Masterminds a couple of weeks ago and I noticed that Amazon has it marked as a June release. Now as I've said elsewhere, I don't really understand M&M but I'm a fan of the Silver age so I toddled back up to my FLGS on Sunday to look through it.<br/> <...

<t>I had Mutants and Masterminds 2E and the Mastermind's Manual and Golden Age. I just found it too convoluted. I could not wrap my mind around it, try as I might - and I have successully played/GM'ed Champions. I've also been able 'to get' Silver Age Sentinels, Marvel FASERIP, DC Heroes and Heroes ...

If I wanted to watch hot naked chicks, I'd watch porn not Battlestar Galactica. Frankly, I find it an insult to my intelligence.

Fantasy: C&C or Palladium FRPG

Sci-Fi: Star Wars D6

Humor: Toon or Paranoia

Superheroes: DC Heroes or Truth & Justice

Horror: Call of Cthulhu

<t>Yeah, I think it depends on the setting and mood you are trying to evoke. I got into a similar argument recently with one of the guys in my group recently. I restricted the class selections - a lot. In fact, I disallowed wizards and clerics unless you give up a Prime. <br/> <br/> I'm envisioning ...

The 6 Million Dollar Map?

Yeah, I have that one and one without Blackmoor and the others. Seems like the big version is going to remain lost forever.

Thanks for trying Treebore. I really do appreciate it.

I agree with Rikitiki - that is the best of the Sinbad movies.

It was a combined map of the Wilderlands and Goodman Games Known Realms. I have a tiny version but there was a larger one floating out in the ether somewhere. I think James Mishler did it originally but lost it in a computer

crash.

I've been looking for something with a flavor more akin to "The Hobbit" rather than "The Lord of the Rings" - more folklorist and whimsical than epic. Can the Wilderlands handle that?

<t>I would get rid of Wizard and Cleric in favor of Illusionist and Druid. Then limit damaging spells (yeah, movement spells, too). <br/> <br/> The idea of "corruption points" from MERP 2E was good - basically, if you use magic for selfish ends then there's a risk of becoming an evil NPC.<br/> <br/>...

Verrrry interesting.

I've seen that same picture somewhere around here before. It was much more gruesome the first time.

First fantasy RPG I played. Pretty much a sandbox. Stories flow pretty naturally from it. No need for modules. Combat can drag out or be relatively quick - depends on the group.

Adventure and Freedom Force versus the Third Reich.

Mine goes up to eleven.

I was watching something recently where they mentioned a medieval priest (a bishop?) who only used blunt weapons in combat so as not to draw blood.

I've got a Yamato Hikaru and Max VF-1As, Repro 1/55 Skull 1, Rick VF-1J and Ben Dixon veritechs. I don't have the money to collect all that I want though.

GURPS magic. max of Magery 1 or 2 with limited/aspected mana.

One of the 3 worst movies I have ever seen.

No, sir.

<t>Here's one: a group of 18 - 20 year olds hang out, drink beer and worship the devil. Everyone but the crazy blond leader guy get bored with it b/c it's lame and they were just doing it for kicks. So once the blond guy no longer has any cronies he FINALLY summons an actual demon which he then comm...

I haven't even heard of half of those monsters!

Peter, I think 'dry' refers to how it leaves your mouth feeling - dry as in thirsty or dehydrated.
