A while back, I came across a homebrew RPG that rated characters by colors... Each color being assigned to certain types of actions: Yellow for Energy, Green...

Hi all, This is a short notification for any in the group intending to place an entry in the 2008 Windhammer Prize that the period for entries closes on the...
Question for you math people out there, although I'm looking for approximations. The Third Kingdom uses a Size score, the human average of which is 15 and the...
... Generally, volume (and, hence, mass) increases cubically with radius and projected surface area (which is the main relevant measure for determining how...
Todd, I'd look into the Size/Range/Speed table that GURPS (Steve Jackson Games) uses and see if you can approximate what you need in your system from that. The...
Thanks Torben, The information you provided was helpful, although I don't think I explained my question very well. While I have the human Size ranges (and...
... So 20d6 is too much in your opinion for the Weapon Master Subtype. And 16d6 is too little. But then you mention later on that even 18d6 is too much. I...
Todd, Have you considered any trade off for affecting multiple targets vs. affecting an area? The question is two-fold: 1. Is affecting targets that are...
I have to say that I am striving for simplicity here, and that in the test run (I am creating spells using the tables I have created) the system seems to be...
Todd, I like what you are doing. I've done a bit of work on developing systems of magic casting myself, and I've tossed the solid, liquid, gas idea around...

Thinking about splitting up my 6 magical arts into 12, but that requires me to invent new names for most of them. Any suggestions for magic which controls both...
Hi everyone My name is Michael Rees and I've been playign rpgs for nearly 20 years now. I'm also always writing up rpg systems. I'll be watching or reading...
Mike, Marvel RPG (or any other "4-color" superhero) system would help you keep the comic book flavor when playing this. If you wanted to run this in a very...
Not exactly a question, more like an expression of an idea I had been working on, on how to recreate Earthdawn like magic, with threads and such, in another...
Thanks for the suggestions, folks! And yeah, Todd, I keep going back and forth on whether or not they should be separated out. Eternal indecision. :-) I'm now...
