Dragonbane.

yet…

It looks like it should work perfectly fine for a campaign like B/X DandD, but without character levels, spell slots, the weird attack roll system, and with skills. All the rules for wandering monsters, reaction rolls, and morale that make B/X great can just be added to Dragonbane almost as is.

I had to look if this was posted in Science Memes or RPG Memes.

I only recognize things as down as GNS and Fatal, and those are really just level 3 stuff.

“Komm da weg, Idioten!”

That’s the original post.

Rum Ham!!!

The nastiest thing about lack of oxygen is that the first effect is losing your ability to tell that anything is wrong with you. The perfect killer.

I actually want an undead dungeon filled with toxic fumes now.

Of course you can always include more detail to get more realism.

But my main goal is to make using hex maps for travel more convenient to use while still maintaining the 6-mile resolution. That means all daily travel distances have to come out as full increments of 6 miles, and the equation to calculate speed has to be easy enough to do by memory without looking up any tables. I don’t think it’s mathematically possible to produce something like that with more factors going into it.

Not sure if we would catch anything here that isn’t already there.

A Cait Sith Lord?!

True science! Without compassion, decency, and humanity.

Yay…

But how many of the Rollmaster spells are actually useful?

When I start work on a new setting and have a rough general idea of the cultures that will inhabit it, I pick countries that I think are somewhat culturally comparable and look up lists with common names from those countries. Then I make myself a big list of names that I think sound like decent names for characters in my setting and copy them all into one big list of NPC names sorted by culture. If I need an NPC name later, I can go to that list. If nothing on the list seems fitting, I at least have a good pool of references for the sounds and letters that are common for that culture and can make up names that sound similar to the actually existing ones.

But resin printers also seem like they are 10 times as expensive. Which is why I am asking if anyone can help me to find out how detailed PLA actually gets at that scale.

Surface gravity on Europa isn’t very high. So having the thing being extremely heavy would not be much of an issue if it’s not supposed to take off and land on Earth. Once the sub is in the water it will be bouyant, that helps with dealing with weight too. But even with low gravity, the extreme depth of the ocean will lead to incredible pressures near the bottom, where the cool stuff is likely to be found. So the sub will have to be extremely strongly build.

“You’re going to find that many of the truths we cling to depend greatly on our own point of view.”

That’s max-max

In the end ,I discovered that DBA is pretty much the game I was envisioning in my mind for how an ancient/medieval wargame for casual newcomers should be like.

It reminds me a lot of OD&D and B/X in how it compares to other popular fantasy wargames today. There is a fantasy version called Hordes of the Things based on an earlier version of DBA, but I like the current version of DBA from 2014 much better from a first read.
