Back in '93 we started a troll campaign using the rules for making troll characters from trollpak. The GM had us roll up the races of the trolls randomly. The race with the highest percentage chance was of course trollkin and the lowest was mistress race. I couldn't believe they had it on there...

Well, I don't hate ducks. I just really like trolls. I mean hey they're huge and they can eat anything! What's not to love about that?

I like the Uz because I tend to see myself in the big and brutish category and I prefer dismal to bright (that may be because I was born in the Pacific Northwest). I gave Humakti as an alternate because they are very honorable and that's what I strive for in my own life. I sometimes refer to...

Uz! or maybe a human follower of Humakt.

Hey all, I started with Runequest back when it was still being published by Chaosium under Avalon Hill. I recently discovered MRQ. I bought a few of the books and I like them. About the printing errors, I have noticed and I've actually made note of them. In fact, I sent the company a document...

I just checked the MRQ SRD on the website and it lists the starting money at 4D10 x 100. Thanks anyway.

In my copy of deluxe MRQ there is no listed started money for the noble background. Is this an oversight or do they not get money?

I was re-reading legendary heroes again and I found myself thinking about this thread. You originally presented a hypothetical situation in which an attacker with 90% attacks a defender with 40%. Why roll this fight at all. With such a disparity in skill, for the sake of story flow, I would...

Sure! Sounds like fun. Whatever you'd like, just let me know.

Hey there, This looks good. I don't know what help you're looking for but I've got a Masters with a lot of study in the ancient world including languages. In fact the phrase at the bottom is greek written in latin letters. I'm a language geek.

I wouldn't call 87 out of 90 a good success. That's almost a fail. So I don't think its unreasonable that it worked out to only one hit.

*bump*

I just today purchased this book and read it cover to cover. I think it was well done. There were some errors but not too many. I think it was a worthwhile purchase. Congratulations to the people who put this together. I noticed that there were only ten spells for the runes of creation...

Fronela isn't on the upcoming releases list anymore. What happened to it?

I just read the preview and it looks really exciting. I'm glad that mongoose has come up with this. For years my players and I have wondered how we might portray this kind of thing. I will definitely be buying this book. Thanks guys
