Since SIZ / STO is both height, reach, bulk and mass I never really worry about exactly how it relates to itself. A creature with double the SIZ may weight far more but be fairly compact or it may be extremely tall but not that heavy.

The groups I was in spent all our money on Warzone and Blood Bowl miniatures, so we only bought rulebooks. Very few adventures were bought and I'm not sure we ever ran one at all. My fantasy games were just a mish mash of stuff I took from David Eddings books and Lone Wolf /Fighting Fantasy...

We ran a short 87 game recently and will again soon. Mechanically, I ran it mostly as written. A few caveats: * You linked to my thread on ping-pong so you know my thoughts: Dont give every enemy a shield unless they are soldiers on duty. You'll be fine. * In BRP games, I always hand out some...

Not sure how shipping is to Sweden but Mats by Mars are fantastic quality and they can supply them with both hexes, squares or any other nonsense you want.

Probably relevant with the new game coming out: For a scenario to feel like "proper" Drakar och Demoner, what sort of things should it include?

Can a character taking any action other than "Slåss i närstrid" parry? We always assumed no, but I don't suppose there's anything that really specifically says.

A "world sim" book that covers any of the following, if not in the main rulebook: Weather effects. Travel rules. Running a shop. Running a domain. Mass warfare. Acquiring, training and retaining companions, animals and servants. Crafting things.

Having gamed with rather a lot of Americans, I'd say that NOT using miniatures is still the norm in person though it seems online games (roll20 etc.) tend to use them. Anecdotally I'd say older gaming groups are less likely to use minis while younger groups are more likely to use them...

Thanks, what I'm grappling with is exactly how that plays out. Characters A (sword) and C (bow) are fighting B (spear). Its SR 1. Character A rolls a 14 for initiative. Character B rolls a 12. Character C rolls a 13. A goes first and wants to move to melee with B (Slåss i närstrid). B has...

Next question: Weapon length and initiative. Expert says: "Om två personer går in i närstrid med vapnen redo så avgörs deras inbördes turordning i den första SR av vapenlängden" Okay cool. If I have a weapon length of 1 and you have a 2 you go first. The problem here is that I can't figure...

Thank you kindly!

Thank you to both of you :) Good catch! With that, the answer does appear pretty obvious.

Question 2: There are a few spells in Expert Magi that just point back to the rulebook. For example Försegla which Expert gives as Varaktighet Sx1 minutes and otherwise as per the basic rules. Now, in Expert, the system was introduced for extending spell durations (each effektgrad increases...

We can quack if we want to We can leave your friends behind 'Cause your friends don't quack And if they don't quack Well, they're no friends of mine

I figured this could be handy to have a single thread for Q&A type stuff. Something I've wondered about for years: From my 1987 rulebook: "Den här besvärjelsen skapar en blixt som slår ut från trollkarlen mot det mål som är närmast framför honom". The problem is that I read this in two...

The term that I recall being circulated in DK was "non-system" (said in English because if its an English word it is more cool) but that may have been a local thing from a specific place and traditions differed pretty significantly from city to city :)

The Danish RPG convention scene seems to have been very different from what developed elsewhere. While there was a lot of variety, the main scene tended to have some aspects in common: * A heavy focus on system-lite or non-system scenarios. * Even when rules were used, they were often very...

I was so hyped I died. Then I came to life and read this thread and died again from the excitement.

From a card design template a friend of mine made for my Squad Hammer minis rules.

A bit of a silly idea but I thought you guys would find it fun: The idea of the game is that you list a non-Swedish game you would like to play, then the next poster tells you which Swedish game you should use instead. Obviously the answers can be a bit interpretive but they should be close...
