    Character sheet query/request

    The nice and simple does the trick, that's pretty much what I was looking for. Thanks CJ. TrippyHippy, my group wouldn't type up their own sheets, and I ain't doing it for them. Smacks too much of homework really, which is thankfully many years behind me. If I go that road, it's back to...

    Character sheet query/request

    Thanks folks The characters currently are on ruled paper as it happens, I started the game in Classic Trav and am switching to Mong. I was just looking for something a bit snazzier. I'll check out the yahoogroup though, I didn't know about that.

    Character sheet query/request

    Hi all, I'm looking for a downloadable, ideally pdf, character sheet for MongTrav. Thing is, I'd ideally like one that was fairly simple. I don't personally like having all the stat ranges on the sheet, I'd much rather just have the stat name and a box in which to insert what your number is...

    New clarification PDF on the way!

    I can't speak to RQ3, I don't remember to be honest, but definitely true for 2. Tons of errata, I think about four pages worth though I may be misremembering.

    MRQ review in Roolipelaaja (Roleplayer) magazine, Finland

    I don't see misinformation, I see disagreement and some stuff I disagree with myself, but that's all just opinion. Of course others have been here longer so I may just be missing it. It does occur to me, I had a really annoying experience on rpg.net with a poster who kept rebutting criticisms...

    Hm, that is a surprisingly worrying thing to read. I do hope I'm not doing that. Not for the embarassment, I can live with being publicly wrong and all, but it would be terribly disappointing.

    Did the folk on the playtest not come across these issues? I'd have thought they could shed some light on how much of a problem it caused, and there must be some of them here surely.

    Centipedes of Doom?

    Gosh. I have to admit, I never found it especially complex. I suspect I may be houseruling them back in in that case.

    Centipedes of Doom?

    Does anyone know why total hit points were taken out? I'm following the reasons people think it is a problem, in all honesty I don't known enough yet to agree or not, but presumably there was a purpose to the removal. Anyone know what that was?

    Centipedes of Doom?

    I'm quite tempted by that actually, not sure if it's necessary or not as yet but I like the Icelandic sagas and lopped off limbs are normally fatal in those.

    MRQ review in Roolipelaaja (Roleplayer) magazine, Finland

    I think there is slightly more evidence on the smoking front. As it is, what I'm seeing is statements about the book based on what some other posters have said, and those statements frankly don't correspond to the book I've seen. SteveMND captures the point well, when you extrapolate beyond...

    MRQ review in Roolipelaaja (Roleplayer) magazine, Finland

    I meant whether one rationally preferred 2nd, 3rd or MRQ. I was unclear though about that. Criticising a game one hasn't read is silly and just damages one's credibility.

    MRQ review in Roolipelaaja (Roleplayer) magazine, Finland

    It's very much a taste thing isn't it? I preferred second edition to third, but I can certainly see why some would prefer third to second, in many ways it was a better game. This strikes me as a similar thing, I can't see how MRQ could seriously be said not to be Runequest by anyone who has...

    MRQ review in Roolipelaaja (Roleplayer) magazine, Finland

    That's wrong IMO, I have played both 2nd and 3rd quite a bit and I don't see this as more different to 3rd than 3rd was to 2nd.

    Thanks again. I have to say, I really like the new impalement rules, very evocative and much more interesting than the old ones.
