    Which Mongoose RuneQuest PDFs are Bookmarked

    Haven't seen any RQ pdf with bookmarks so far. I read pdf's on my ipad, and after lots of frustration using ibook - as well as over the jpg2000 issue, I finally understand how everything works and discovered goodreader. This brilliant reader allows just about everything: bookmarks, notes...

    RuneQuest 6

    Hear Hear. I remember getting Apple Lane, Ballastor's Barrracks and Snake Pipe Hollow. Back then, you had to take the train to Calais, the Ferry to Dover, the train into Lon-dun to go and buy wargame stuff. My RQ group was quite ecstatic about it, I remember the first time they ran into the...

    Solution to Choose Location

    My players tend to choose location rather often, but I never found that a real issue: whether an enemy is dismembered, hacked in two or beheaded makes little difference to the actual combat, the victim is out of it one way or the other. Plus, I tend to have lots of heavier head armor, it just...

    Odh's RuneQuest II character sheets

    I posted the homemade character sheet we use on my blog. IT is currently the third version, I have some last minor improvements lined up for version 4. I use A3 sheets folded together, like a a4 4 page booklet, with the front featuring role play info, the rear is equipment, and the middle...

    How do you manage NPC CA's

    I use a home made CA board to keep track of CA, SR, Stuns, Long spell duration... I use magnetic nameshields with whiteboard film to write the name, base SR, current SR and CA I use small square magnets for CA, a yellow one for the extra CA, red magnets for stun, blue ones for spells. Works...

    Number of CA's Oops

    Well, I always grant Broo one free headbutt every turn, they will not always take it, but I kinda use it to increase the pressure if needed: it'll force characters to spend a CA on parrying or risk a stun manoeuver. I assume you could do something similar for biters...

    Cults of Glorantha errata project

    I read the document with great interest but play 3rd age and as such am not very useful. I have taken on the gargantuan task of rewriting the 3rd age cults for MRQ2, have done 2 cults so far. I am writing them up as they come along in our campaign. Did Orlanth Adventurous, Ernalda the Earth...

    Common Magic casting rolls

    I think that is because CA's are not a unit of time: some have 2 CA, some have 4, but the total time is 5 seconds anyway. I think it's something that requires flexible thinking: if knowing the exact instance a spell fires is required, you'll have to corroborate, and even then, it's still gonna...

    Questions about Cults of Glorantha

    In our games most people choose a cult at the outset. This is not mandatory, and they can decide for themselves whether they want to nurture the membership, but every character currently in play is initiate in one cult or other. Some characters have no talent for magic, but they will still get...

    Charging Issues

    We've been trying these out as well, they actually resemble our previous houserules quite a bit, with the athletics roll, minimum 5 m, so they felt right at home. Totally workable and players love the ability. From a realism point it's probably a bit overpowered, but then so is a magical troll 8)

    Spellcom mechanics

    So how would one integrate that system into a 3rd age Glorantha campaign? It's not just about the concert skill, is it? How big are the changes you need to make on the character sheet, for example? One of the reasons for switching to MRQ2 was having one concise set of rules again, is this...
