The game is about once a day posting, 8 dice to start with the possibility of a hook and a tale. Your classic crawl, with the Risus touch thrown in. My first...
... On page 32 of the Risus Companion, the second paragraph begins "The loss of cliche dice represents . . ." and then there is an impressive list. Karl...
Just looking for ideas on how the GM's handle xp. The rulebook calls for odd or even call, then raise by one. But damn my players are not rolling that at all....
I handle it this way: After a session everybody rolls for the clichés they used. If there is a raise, fine. If the session went well, but the player does not...
The game is still looking for players over at: http://rpol.net/game.cgi?gi=26525&gn=Risus+Dungeoneers&date=1191342266 At this moment we have a caveman...
Advancement is supposed to get harder the higher your clichés are (that's why it's helpful to have a low level cliché to advance with). You don't want...
Thanks, Karl! Something to read at work! *plugs in the old thumb drive* Hey OOC... Why 8 plus 2? Why not the standard 10 plus 2? Just curious. 1b. Re: One of...
If you want to use Risus, it isn't too difficult to adjust target numbers and what not to model this (you could always just use funky dice, but if all of the...
To be honest? I tried it the first time and they were too powerful to start. An even ten makes me happy, care to join? ... [Non-text portions of this message...
... There's also Mortal Coil, which is diceless. The playtesting game for that was an old gods in modern times setting. But, if you wanted to use Risus, I'd...
I'm having a thought here, Barbossa... This is the idea. Run a scenario set across a wide area, with characters free to wander from place to place. Landmarks...
This is a pretty cool idea...If laptops or other network options are available, the DMs could have a message board or something to pass along notes. ...
... A couple thoughts. One problem would be keeping the time in-synch. One table might go into combat, where a few minutes of in-game time pass for an hour of...
But then, wouldn't the 'bulletin board' idea that Larry mentioned work here, as well? ... -- Hank Harwell, IOR #43 Brother Cleireac of Inisliath (SCA) Website:...
It would, and the fact that a player doesn't enter a new scene until the GM clears them prevents such table-jumping shenanigans as described by Karl. In ...
Space still open in Risus Dungeoneers, on RPOL.net. Let me know if you wish to enter. Thus far we have a charismatic necromancer, a poet Minotaur, and an...

A fair point. I put his Forensics cliche at (3) because he seems to be very good at his job, and so much of it ties into his Serial Killer cliche. I put the...
I'm having trouble downloading files from the File Vault page at the Risusiverse. None of the listings seem to be links, and I don't see an obvious way to...
It is a little bit different in that all of the links to files files are listed on the bottom of the page. The top part is just for a description of what...
