Actually I have played with 2 Simons. The first ran a great Pavis Campaign in South london about 23 years ago. The second was at University 20 years ago. The things they had in common. 1.Both complete B*****d DMs. But good with it. 2. Both had bad Stutters. 3. Both disliked my character Simon...

It's a lie- I don't know this guy. Honest! Anyway, even if he does know me, I was called Trollface for similar reasons Little John was called little, I am a part time male model.

I think I am missing something here as a lot of people seem to be making a fuss over the errors in the Glorantha book. There are one or two errors in the Glorantha book (I even spotted the Balazar error) but it is still a great read. I have been constantly playing Runequest for 31 years now and...

If I am attacking at 190% and my opponent is dodging at 100% I will half.

Soltek- Has my disguise as Alloppo fooled you again?

I don't think Yelmalians got shafted. Unless you mean by ZZ when he nicked their ability to cast fireblade. Yelmalians are please fireblade is now c**p. :twisted:

Unfortunately I have run one or two campaigns where the characters are very tough. Its hard to say to a player, "sorry, your character is too powerful for these rules, start again"I am coming to the end of a very long (several years of regular play) where the 3 characters are all way over 100%...

I came to continuum for two reasons; 1. to buy RQ. Success- seems good. 2. to play RQ. Success- but...... the GM should have read the rules first. having said that, he was a good GM and we had fun anyway. Apart from the mighty wizard who got done by a duck. A female duck. Actually a geriatric...

I think accepting that opposed roles are not halfed in combat is dangerous. when both opponents are over 100% the combat will just revolve around who has the most combat actions. I propose two things:- 1. Ignoring the 'official' explanation which clearly contradicts the book and; 2. when rolling...

I consider myself a RQ fan. I have continuosly (apart from work etc!) played RQ for about 25 years. The new game is different but seems fun. If it was RQ3 or RQ2 tweaked then what is the point buying it? Its similar enough for me to start planning a campaign and know I'll enjoy it. For those who...

I suspect everyone will play this differently. I think that the book works better than the 'official' explanation. I think in my campaign I will run with the book with this adjustment: When it comes to the opposed roll, if either, or both combatants is > 100%,whoever has the highest % chooses...

The new game appears good. BUT there are problems and some confusion with the rules. I wnt to continuum for the first time in ages as I am a die hard RQ player and wanted a preview. The rules were obviously too complex for the official mongoose GM's who clearly contradicted them. The official...
