Might make a profile for the Airship game though.


Is this for ME?! *gasp* Do I get more people?!

Ahem.

I assume I didn't miss anything worthwhile in the majority of today?

OK, I just recreated Impurity. I managed to remove about 50% of clutter, compressing all content only when necessary. The new system is much simpler and easier to navigate and understand, in my opinion. It now deals with simple fractions instead of percentages in relation to features like weight. So far, the system only has minimal features. Things like necromancy or enchanting are not yet included, as they may not be necessary thus far.

Of course, suggestions and ideas are still welcome. There's plenty of room for new Abilities/perks/moves/powers, for example, which should be fun to work with.

Anyways, I'm off to bed pretty soon, so I can only respond to things tomorrow. Good night.

OK so you streamlined it a bit and have some idea of how combat will actually work. Awesome.

Now what is it your trying to achieve with this combat system Az? Large scale battles (such as armies?) Or small patrols?

Let's forget about adding anything new for now. Give people a bio and play test what you got. Everyone is a human and there is no magic to keep things simple. Run through a scenario see what problems you encounter and try and fix them or mitigate. See what works well why does it work well and can you apply that to other systems ect.

Chris,
The system can be used for duelling, skirmishing or battles, or multiples against one. Formations of soldiers require a lot of RTD to work with, so it was just too complex and too vast a topic to cover everything. But I will take your advice and try to work out non-magical duel.

I also just made a few fixes, there were a few times where I forgot to convert percentages to fractions, and even a few loopholes I did not notice, such as an ability not requiring Stamina.



Almost done first character for example. Things are going pretty slow as I have not had breakfast yet. Also made a few edits to the thread here and there, fixing it up a bit better.

Did more fixes to the system.

Oh my, over an hour of work, and all I did was finish one character? Time for a breakfast break.
