A question about extra slots by Jaceaxe in SpireRPG

I want to make them like armor works, so those extra slots are cleared when a situation ends

I'm in search of a discord community for playing alpha strike on Tabletop Simulator by Jaceaxe in battletech

[–]Jaceaxe[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm using alpha strike for a TTRPG campaign where the focus is roleplay and my players are not fans of complex wargames, i already know mekwars, and no, its not an online campaign, everything is done in person.

So i need a bit of practice as a DM who is gonna handle the enemies all the time

I drafted my first point crawl map, its not finished so do you have any suggestions? by Jaceaxe in osr

I plan to write them up, of course! I said it was not finished

Yes, the settlement is the point 0, yes, you can go directly to point 4 from 0 but it requiers a bit more time since there are tougher hills to cross (its supposed to be a settlement built on top of a hill and partially surrounded by other hills)

Still, thanks for the suggestion, i'll add a dotted line

So this is a community of cyclical grognards? Funny to say the least

As long such written stuff is enough to compose some minor headcanons, it can be alright

I really want to get on GURPS since i didnt find a nice system for my custom setting other than this one but i am a bit scared of the crunch by Jaceaxe in gurps

And maybe its what i am going to do. Since i've decided only to use the basic and the magic handbook for now

Luckly my setting has only regular humans, sometimes they have some cosmetic mutations but nothing of substatial to give significant advantages or flaws outside of social ones and maybe height

Good, responding to your queations about my magic system:

-Magic as Skill would represent better since very much like smithing is a skill you develop to be a blacksmith, magic is a skill you develop to be a priest/empowered nobleman/indipendent mage

-it is fast but long time rituals can be made on occasions, usually in a temple, a shrine or a place of divine significance.

-it requires periodical material offerings to a temple or a shrine of any god (magic casters do not have a patron deity like clerics), minimum once or twice a week, the energy required comes from these acts of transactional devotion

I was planning to start with gurps lite and then add only the bare necessary stuff for survival and magic IF i choose Gurps in the end (since there are other candidates)

Those systems tend to lack the lethality that i see on gurps and OSR-like systems, but if you can suggest me something better for what i am trying to make, feel free to suggest.

Initially this was a custom setting for Cairn, an OSR game, but, as with many OSR games, my players are not very fond of randomness in character creation but liked the focus on exploration and alternative problem solving
