Description

This group is primarily to give access to my translation of Decipher's Lord of the Rings game into Unisystem. To see what I have done just go to the Files page and click on the link to download the files.

The Color Version 3 included the information presented in Paths of the Wise and adds Mass Combat rules, Long Distance Traveling Rules as well as several new animals. Version 3 also had new rules on Horses and Mounted Combat, Combat Manuevers, new critters like Ents and Dragons, added a few more Herbs, had new rules for simplifying combat and had some rules clarifications on character creation.

In order to simplify the game a bit I got rid of Wound Levels, Bleeding and Skill Specialties with Version 4. This version was much closer to regular Cinematic Unisystem.

Version 5 offers the Health Level and Skill Specialty rules from v3 as optional possiblities. It also changes the Mass Combat Rules slightly allowing PCs to be more pivotal in large battles. There is a black and white print friendly version of V5 as well that has all the same rules.

If you notice any editing errors or have any opinions on what I have done I would welcome hearing from you. Thanks.

I would like to encourage anyone who enjoys these rules to visit the excellent Hall of Fire website: http://halloffire<dot>org/

It provided me with much of the inspiration and motivation to make this source book.

Re: Spell Method: Ability and Standard
"Standard" would just be the non-ability use of magic through any of the three standard methods.

Re: Spell Method: Ability and Standard
Ah! Thank you. I remember about changing a spell to an ability now. What does "Standard" refer to, by the way? I see it listed in some of the spell
