    Default [RetroQuest] RetroQuest

    Ok, our house rules evolved to the point we weren't playing BRP anymore... So we picked up GORE, added all our rules (all 3 of them) and then beat the crap out of it, until most things were gone.



    Here's RetroQuest, a lean, clean system, with minimal (really, HP only) bookkeeping, few (less than 15!) basic skills and some more advanced skills.

    Combat is deadly and fast, and all the slow things from BRP are gone. Also, the languages implementation is probably the best thing on the game.

    Its only 27-pages long (22 if you take out license, cover and index), so you can check it out realy fast!

    And the best part is... NO WEREWOLVES!!! Guaranteed!!!

    Coming soon:
    • A magic book (with wizards, shamans and clerics!!!)

    • A creatures book (warning: may have werewolves)


    Also, if you prefer an HTML version: https://sites.google.com/site/rqadventures/ (probably outdated!)

    I'd love to have some feedback from you guys!
    PS: F**K WEREWOLVES!!!

    You might also want to announce this on the Other RPGs board on the Dragonsfoot forums. People there are into this type of thing, you know.

    v1.1 up!
    No more stupid modifiers! Everything is either +30% or -30%

    Also, somehow tables came out REALLY bad on the PDF. I guess it was the curse of the werewolves!

    I was wondering... was this the RetroQuest that has werewolves?

    Looks good.

    There's WAY too much to this system. Too many B.S. rules. I'm using the rock-paper-scissors with best 2-out-of-3 for all combat. I'm tired of all this ridiculous rolling of dice and looking at numbers foolishness. If you need something more "detailed" than rock-paper-scissors, you might as well be playing D&D 4E.
