Mythmaster takes a lot of inspiration from Runequest. Skills are based on Attributes which are determined by averaging Stats - making all attributes useful and preventing easy optimization.

System specific is better. Most things don’t need to be explicitly converted and a good DM/Director can do it on the fly. If the deep details matter then captuuring them in a specific system and expecting conversion is better than just omitting them.

It’s hard.

I promise you it would be less fun, less motivating, less interesting if it was easy.

Keep doing hard stuff.

The Quickstart ended up being too long to be ‘quick’ so my plan for the fall is to make another, quicker QuickStart and move the current ions into a new Adventures section of the site. I hope by next year to move out of Beta and into full production of adventure content.

The world of Tear, with 18 species (mostly) harmoniously integrated, depicts hereditary wealth & power as unsustainable. Species-centric empires mostly failed. The Quickstart adventure is themed around discrimination, corruption and cover-ups (and a lot of ghouls). Check it out, it's FREE!

Replace ‘98 with ‘88, and BGs five discs for Ultima V’s four (PC) and I’m with you!

Bestiaries are a slippery slope. I ended up buying ALL 8(9?) Pathfinder bestiaries for my son over the years. He is now a living encyclopedia of imaginary monsters. It’s amazing.

No. That’s a multiplication. So if skill is 12, 3(Sk)h is 36 hexes or 4(Sk)h is 48 hexes.

I had a months long campaign, where one of the players was Fated To Die in an epic battle defending a city against a dragon, fall apart at the critical moment when the dragon crit failed its breath attack, choked, and then suffer multiple crits from other players and died. Was still epic though.

Add me please!
