Notes on RQ ! & II development

[raymond_turney]

Hi,

Greg Stafford asked for some notes on the development of RuneQuest, and I provided them. They can be found on his website at:

http://www.weareallus.com/chaosium/rayturneyrq.html

They are part of a larger series, including similar pieces from Greg and Steve at:

My current project, Fire and Sword, can be found at:

Hope you find them interesting,

Ray,

Very interesting

I came to know Runequest quite lately with RQ III (though I knew Glorantha since 1990 with the Dragon Pass boardgame) but these rules and the lated are essentially based on the 1st and 2nd edition.
The RQ magic system is one the best creation in RPGs.
Thanks for all.

I'd love to look at your new rules, but my PC has recently crashed, and the BRP site is blocked from my work PC!

Is there any way you could send a direct link to the pdf please.

I'd ask for them as an attachment, but I think there is a limit of about 2Mb on incoming mail.
Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
Ralph

Hi Ralph,

Odd as it sounds, the rules are not directly viewable as and must be downloaded.

If I can get an email address from you, will be happy to send you a copy of the third edition currently in progress. Think it is a PDF consuming about 1.2 Meg.

My email address is: raymond_turney@yahoo.com

Ray,

Your PC recently crashed?

Isn´t that called "died" when speaking about a PC (Player Character)?
Visit a Chalana Arroy, maybe he can be resurrected.

Maybe crashed means a mechanical character, a mostali perhaps?

;-)

Zistorite for sure.

Moonboat accident actually
(Oops, that's 3rd age )

Request thankfully fulfilled. On an initial inspection, they seem very nice.
I shall get a few characters rolled and see how we go.
But that's for another forum...

Thanks again
Ralph

Hi,

Just wondering how you are doing with Fire and Sword?

Added a couple of minor things, working on 4th edition.

Working on Fourth Edition, hopefully new stuff will be coming out more freuently.

Ray,
