    So not into D&D...sell me on something else!?

    In all games. I am of the opinion that no game is perfect for every given situation or style of play. That rules should be flexible enough to allow for GMs to tweak them to suit their style of play without too much worry about breaking them. That is actually my goal when writing games, to...

    So not into D&D...sell me on something else!?

    Umm. Tweaking the rules is almost a requirement....

    So not into D&D...sell me on something else!?

    if all things are equal, there is a 15% chance of hitting your foe. and a 3% chance of diong critical results (i.e. earning success levels). but there are options on both sides of things that can adjust

    So not into D&D...sell me on something else!?

    Yes, oe = open-ended The low end is not open-ended. If you roll a 19 or 20, then you roll 2d10 again and add to the previous roll(s). There are background options that expand the oe range to 18-20 and 17-20 respectively (but they also increase the UM (unmodified) Critical Failure range from 2...

    So not into D&D...sell me on something else!?

    That is because that line you quoted wasn't about Novus 2e (Silverlion knows all about Novus 2e), it was about Fantasy Express (my 2d10 variant of Against the Darkmaster). In Fantasy Express, everything is resolved using the following table So, if you are using an Arming Sword, your attacks...

    So not into D&D...sell me on something else!?

    Umm.. Silverlion? Novus 2e. No classes, no levels, roll high, 2d10 based. Customizable spell system. Pretty much everything you asked for. And if you want something more similar to Against the Darkmaster, but without the RM-esque combat, I just released Fantasy Express this morning. Now, it...

    Playtesters wanted for Fantasy Express

    I am looking for folks (and their normal groups) to playtest a new system (2d10 variant of Against the Darkmaster -- note: combat and spells work very differently than in vsD -- system uses single table for all resolution, combat has success levels, where you use those levels to purchase crit...

    Let's talk about Spacemaster

    You have no idea........ Even the little bit I have mentioned is only the tip of the iceberg.... I have not, it is on my list of things to do, but I am more fantasy oriented than space oriented, though I do have a couple of setting ideas wrote up in overview documents (i.e. mainly just a write...

    Let's talk about Spacemaster

    One of the many projects I am currently working on is a d20fied version of Against the Darkmaster (also working on monster supplements for vsD too), and once I get that done, perhaps I should a space-faring version of it as well... That could be very cool.....

    Let's talk about Spacemaster

    The idea behind HARP was to try and capture d20 players who wanted more, but who were not ready to go all Rolemaster. At the time only RMFRP/RMSS was available, so it was an intensely complicated system (compared to d20 at the time). At the time, the idea was a good one!! It was also why HARP...

    Greivous Grimoire for Against the Darkness

    Is the Shadow Walker kinda like an RM Nightblade? Also what is a Jack? (the advertising has it as a type of Sage, I guess....) And that Martial Arts skill? Does it require ranks in Brawl (like equal or more), or does it treat it as completely separate?

    Greivous Grimoire for Against the Darkness

    It does help a bit... I am actually working on my own MA system for vsD. And I can tell now that my MA rules will definitely be different from what is there (my rules have 3 skills in a new skill category, and I have some new vocations to go along with it as well...) DO they get additional...

    Greivous Grimoire for Against the Darkness

    Now, I am a big fan of Against the Darkness, not for the setting itself, but for the system. I just recently learned that Open Ended Games has released a relatively open license for Against the Darkness -- https://www.vsdarkmaster.com/open-license/ I also just learned about Greivous Grimoire...
