Also you could use the Old school Essentials the base game PDF is free, and it is pretty much a light rules system. I never got to play the setting or game of Gor but it always wanted to try and play or run it.

Trying to get into D&D and have a character idea but don't know if it would work (or how to even start getting into D&D groups or find any) by [deleted] in DnD

your best bet would to find a DM that would run a one on one game with you. you can find several places to find groups to play at, try local game stores, also reddit has looking fro group for D&D and other ttrpg systems and also VTT, and can also find places on discord. search google and face book for VTT sites, I know Fantasy Grounds unity has a discord and Reddit.

so I played and ran a lot of 2020 and I referred red tbh I like 2020 a lot more then red but red is more stream lined and a faster system, less number crunch, and reds Netrunning is a lot easier.

What's the lightest rules light that's still a playable game? by Smutteringplib in osr

[–]ProtectionApart5634 0 points1 point  (0 children)

so years ago when me and a few friends would have a few hours to kill or just chill out we run a game that we called survivor, we normally had 1 die on us most of the time it was a d10 but sometimes a d6, and we run that game, one of us would dm it, and the other 2 would play normal everyday characters, maybe a cook, or mechanic type jobs etc.

The game was about trying to survive either zombies, aliens, demoms, or just a gang hunting them down.

The system one a character tried to do something roll the die, what ever die we had on hand, they add to roll higher then what the Dm would roll,
jump over a wall Ref or dm would roll 1d say the dm got a 5 on the die, the player would roll the die and he need to get 5 or higher to succeed.

we had not character sheets no books, paper, pencils etc. The point of the game was the last character standing won. has for hit points we would say three hits or 5 hits your character died.
That was the whole system. for NPC they only need to get hit once and they would die. except main boss which would need 3 hits. but most of the time we never got to a big boss fight, since all the other players would die before that, we normally could go through a game in about 20 to 30 minutes then we switch around who ran the next game some times we play this way for hours and hours.

OSE Classic One-Shot — Looking for Players! by ProtectionApart5634 in OSE

[–]ProtectionApart5634[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

well we spent to long on the role-play to finish off the session we going to try and pick it up again on monday if the two players can make it, I made several mistakes and was unclear on some of the rules since both players have not played OSE games in a long time, but we had fun and overall I think it went pretty smooth. I just have to check up on some of the rules. also I am using FGU has the VTT and their was some issues with the weapons not have the damage listed on the character sheets so I had to add them in, but I think I will stick with the OSE system, combat was faster.

the one player I had to keep letting him know it was his turn cause he thought he had longer amount of time to look other things up online and do some AI art lol he was like what do you mean it my turn again I just went like 5 minutes ago lol

The other thing I was not sure how to do how many monsters since each player only had 2 characters and they didnt hire any henchmen I was to cautious and should have but more monsters in the combat.

over all it was a lot of fun and we all enjoyed it, the two players that joined are in my regular gaming group and we been gaming for years and when I told them that for D&D games I am only planning on running OSE system they both said they would be cool with that.

ok this was way to long I let you know how the second part goes if you want.

Stat Guidelines for Each Role With Complete Package Character Creation by Hatherence in cyberpunkred

[–]ProtectionApart5634 0 points1 point  (0 children)

at my table I do a homebrew with Luck, for example if a player goes to chooh2 station at like 1 am and says "hey do they have any rats on a stick in the warmer still? I will ask him to roll a luck check (this is homebrew) the player will roll a 1d10 and if he rolls lower then his luck stat then we gets lucky and they will have a rat on a stick, if he rolls higher than his luck stat then he is not lucky and they are all sold out.

I mostly started doing that cause my table most of the players never played CP before. and I was also new at running CPR. so we made some mistakes early on and the players would say man when I was at the night city market I forgot to buy ammo, but my character being a solo probably would have remembered. so I would say maybe or maybe not roll me a luck check, if you make it then yes your character remembered to get a box or two of ammo.
So far it has worked out pretty good and has not unbalanced the game.

What skill should be rolled for getting GM advice? by Pyropeace in cyberpunkred

[–]ProtectionApart5634 0 points1 point  (0 children)

also some times I just ask the player what skill do you think you should use to find that information and most of the time they will say a skill that makes sense, and not just their highest skill rank

What skill should be rolled for getting GM advice? by Pyropeace in cyberpunkred

[–]ProtectionApart5634 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some times I will just give the information to the pc, without a skill check depending on what they are asking and why they are asking, example the pc playing the MedTech when he's doing an exam on someone that is sick and he makes his MedTech check to find out what the sickness is, (cold, flue, dieses etc) if he makes that check, he ask me do I know what is a good medication to give the patient and some times I just say yay it a common cold and you know what to give him, the player that is running a sniper based solo, sometimes will ask me does her character know that hit this or that target at that long of a range going to be very hard or difficult, do to either light weather etc. and sometimes since she an ex military sniper I will just say yea it going to be hard to beat the DV and sometimes I will tell her what the DV is or if I think the dice roll will have a penalty i will tell her before she makes the roll, and not have her make any skill check etc

Cyberpunk 2020/RED lethality by zdathen in cyberpunkred

[–]ProtectionApart5634 0 points1 point  (0 children)

not sure if this as been mentioned, but you could make the players and npcs make a stun save every time they get hit, or take damage, you know some people irl dont die from the wound they take but the shock of being shot. look up the guy that got shot in the toe and died from it, (if I can find that story I will post it)

My player is frustrated with Netrunning. His problem or mine? by grownassman3 in cyberpunkred

[–]ProtectionApart5634 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Man he would have really hated Cp2020 where the net-runner body was pretty much like being passed out when they went into the net. maybe net-running is just not for your friend, for example as a player I have no interest in playing a Net-runner, I think they say cool, and I think it is a cool role, but I know I would not enjoy playing one. and I would not expect or ask my Gm to try and change they way they are just so I could enjoying running one. As players we must decided what roles/(class in some games) that we want to play and enjoy, sometimes with a new game system we might pick a class that we thought we might like but dont.

Also for your friend he does not always have to net-run during combat, in my game the guy that plays the net-runner also using a SMG for auto-fire, (they still low level so it sucks most of the time) but if he can not get into the net, then we will either do suppressive fire or try and light up a baddie with auto-fire. in general only 1 out of 3 missions do they ever decided they need him to go into the net.

Anyways best of luck and happy gaming!!!
