Can I get it somewhere? That name sounds familiar like I've seen it somewhere before...

Where does "Stick that in your Pipe" come from?

No problem. We've got no needs to apologize here, we just see different paths as the "right" one for DW. In fact, based on your feedback, I think you're over-complicating what I'm talking about doing - you're seeing too much GURPS in it than what I'm imagining. I'm thinking I might do a full...

Ok, I got you now. Not quite. Your class will set your attribute levels, you don't buy them. At least not until the customization stage, but at that point you might have enough points to buy a few +1's or +2's to various attributes. Not enough to really min/max things, and you could put a...

The quote from me there, I'm talking about there being no derived stats in Dragon Warriors rules, everything is defined by your class except the basic attributes, which you roll, I'm not really following why you switched to HERO there. That, along with the desire to remove random attributes...

Well, first of all, there are no "derived" characteristics as no score of any sort is calculated from anything else. It's all either rolled randomly or assigned by class, and I figured I'd eliminate the "rolled randomly" for our "standard method" to discuss, and just combine the two into...

Ok, here's some more on redefining classes, focusing just on the Warrior Class... So, you're a warrior, you get these attributes (adjusted down a bit to add package bonuses): Strength = 10 Reflexes = 10 Intelligence = 10 Psychic Talent = 10 Health = 10 Attack = 10 Defense = 5 Evasion = 3...

Well, at the very minimum I say we need to drop anything that doesn't fit Legend (such as Orcs and the current magic system), and give players the ability to customize their character a bit. Other than that, I really could just live with the system as is, it's ok. I might rather use HERO or...

Yeah, I understand where you're coming from, and if I'm involved in revamping the system, there are going to be some obvious shifts towards a GURPS/HERO like system, just because I like those two systems so much and the way they do things that I essentially see them as the "best" way to do an...

I didn't feel like signing up for yet another site, so I'll just post this for you here... The info you have under GURPS is wrong. You have : Requires you to buy lots of books: GURPS Core, GURPS Fantasy, GURPS Legend, etc. etc. This in not right. With a 'Powered by GURPS' book, you need...

Yeah, I'd modify the charts to be mostly personal detriments, either to just the caster or to the caster and those within 'x' feet of him. The effects could range from minor annoyances at the lowest level to instant death at the highest. But yeah, no "civilization killers". It might even by a...

I'll point you to Unlimited Mana: http://www.io.com/~sjohn/unlimited-mana.htm It's the best magic point system I've ever used, and I use it almost exclusively when I run GURPS.

Well, I could just as easily go for a total revamp of the current system or a Dragon Warriors 2 that used either the GURPS system, or the HERO system, and I'm very quickly leaning more towards the latter at this point if we use an existing system, as I'm finding HERO to simply be far more...

Ok, that's cool. .......... Btw, if people are really put off by the DW system, I might make another suggestion then. Do a Dragon Warriors 2.0, and do it as a 'Powered by GURPS' book. Morris himself has clearly stated that he likes GURPS as a system. I could be wrong, but I think the only...

Haha, just downloaded it, again. I deleted the thing after I bought the books, thinking I didn't need it anymore. I never even realized there was an adventure there... Tricky bastards... :lol:
