randomwizard<p>The players in the campaign have an opportunity to setup a new barony in the wilderness that they may or may not take. So I have been reading through a couple of different game systems that have "yearly events" for a dominion. The first system that comes to mind is Chaosium's Pendragon (like BRP but uses a 1d20). It has a Winter Events table just for regular characters. I like this system because it forces the player's characters to age 1 year.</p><p>Second image is from ACKs, which has a random event based on what the player's leige will request of them every year.</p><p>Third image Birthright, which is entwined a little bit with the setting since there are magical forces that tie rulers to the land.</p><p>And fourth is from the venerable Companion Set. Might be a bit tiring to roll for everything on the table every year.</p><p><a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/rpg" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>rpg</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/dnd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dnd</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/pendragon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>pendragon</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/brp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>brp</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/dominions" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dominions</span></a></p>

Digital Mark λ ☕️ 🕹 🙄<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://tilde.zone/@mhd" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>mhd</span></a></span> Technically you can use the big BRP book now, under ORC license. Legend's better, OGL license is probably OK?</p><p>But full BRP or Legend is kind of a *LOT*, and it's hard to pare down. Mythras is huge, and has a more complex license.</p><p>OpenQuest is a really nice, easy game, and easier to hack on, change out your magic &amp; monsters. License is clear.</p><p>I prefer even more open &amp; easy, so I just started from scratch and made my own, 4-stat variant. Zero text from anyone else.<br><a href="https://appdot.net/tags/rpg" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>rpg</span></a> <a href="https://appdot.net/tags/ttrpg" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ttrpg</span></a> <a href="https://appdot.net/tags/brp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>brp</span></a> <a href="https://appdot.net/tags/d100" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>d100</span></a></p>
randomwizard<p>I am a proponent of task resolution being roll under percentage, 1d100. I think it is the easiest system for non-gamers to instantly grasp the probability something will succeed. I worked on converting 1E AD&amp;D to a 1d100 system several years ago and have been test playing it since then. Strangely, the system starts to look a lot like BRP, maybe the most like Stormbringer, but without the SIZE attribute or leveling up skills by using them. Instead they get around 20 points of skills as they level up (little more complicated by not worth going into here).</p><p>It also sort of looks like Star Frontiers because I added 2 more stats; Perception and Reflexes. I use perception all the time for searches if it is not immediately obvious what they are looking for or they do not describe in detail what they are searching for (which usually results in automatic success).</p><p>It even feels a bit like Dangerous Journeys but without all the odd terminology. Everyone starts out playing a human. But this is more of a campaign setting thing. I wanted to the fantasy world to be more like the dark ages of Earth instead of a "Magic Everywhere" setting like World of Warcraft.</p><p><a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/dnd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dnd</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/rpg" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>rpg</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/osr" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>osr</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/brp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>brp</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/gametheory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>gametheory</span></a></p>
