Hi folks, ever since I saw TORG in my FLGS, I have been fascinated by this game. I bought quite a lot of books for it, but have never been able to actually run...
Hi Dirk, glad to see you here. It's quiet, but you never know what the future might bring. Thanks for joining and posting at least. :) ... as ... All ... to...
P.S. Wie gehts! I just realized your profile was all in German, so that's my weak attempt at saying hello in German. My German language skills don't go much...
I will try to help you, as starting TORG can be difficult (I had to do it when it was first published in 1990, so I know). ... The first "mistake" was to let...
Danke, sehr gut! Nice attempt, cepheus42, and anything but weak :-) Absolutely correct would have been "Wie geht es?" or, a bit abbreviated, "Wie geht's?" ...
Dominick and cepheus42, thank you for your warm welcome! According to your advice, I'll change my plans for the cards and just try to motivate the players to...
Hi Dirk, glad to hear you're getting a game going. ... Well, one incentive is that their characters are probably going to die a lot sooner than heroes should...
Replying to my own message... ... Another possibility (har) that I've been seeing in more RPGs recently is a static "hero point" pool that refreshes every...
I've talked to all players but one about the PPs. In fact they seem rather open minded about using these points during gameplay. Before the games starts...
Hey all, It's been awhile, but I noticed a little life on this board (in geological time, if not Internet time) and thought I would mention something. I'm...

Forgot to mention Life Points. 4th edition GURPS has rules for spending character points in a Hero-point manner. I don't allow that, but I do allow Life Points...
... rewards? ... I don't think anyone played a subplot that I can remember. But they probably would have played them just for the roleplay hook. -Grant...
The guys I mentioned before are starting a new TORG game for the summer. I'm playing a Priest of Palan. Did you know that the PoP template can't take the "Fist...
If you are looking for ideas, I would suggest giving a character who takes a subplot and roleplays it through the adventure a bonus experience point. Dominick...
... Sometimes I wonder if the people who wrote the Clerics' Sourcebook bothered to look up pertinent material in other books first.... ... I'd guess +6 to the...
... I also got some relief on the Palan restriction on miracles, that they can only be cast on the Priest himself. With the +3 penalty for providing the Faith...
Wow, in a way I'm kind of glad I'm only dealing with the anomalies in the Magic Axiom right now... :) Dominick Riesland, aka Rabbitball Speaker, 5-Color Rules...
... That though is an axiomatic effect, Nippon Tech's Spirit axiom of 8 is not high enough to allow for miracles that can be used to affect the abilities of...
... they ... bother ... being ... is ... Didn't know either of those. But is it just their abilities that cannot be affected, or the person at all? -Grant...
... The phrasing in the original rulebook is "enhance the abilities of believers"; there are miracles in the original rulebook with axiom levels lower than 9...
I think I've pretty much given up playing again. At 41, there's less and less time every year to make for games, and now I have a new, expensive hobby to play...
Hello cepheus42, I also have everything for Torg except one of the novels. I would be willing to act as moderator to keep the forum from closing down. If...
Yes, we're still around. I'm playing in a Torg game for the summer. Please keep the forum up. -Grant ... be willing to act as moderator to keep the forum from...
The full gory details can be found on WEG's website forum (and it's being discussed on other rpg forums like rpg.net) but basically Eric is shutting the...
... Not a lot is being said on the Torg mailing list about it, links to some of the postings and general 'darn' and 'good luck Eric' kinds of things are about...
As someone else said in that thread, I wish I had the money to purchase or partner for the purchase of WEG. But alas, three kids eats up alot of finances...
