ICE News and Discussion / Re: ICE needs an SRD for thier systems.
« Last post by Hansuke on Today at 07:46:08 PM »
This discussion got me to wondering if I could use google sites to create a campaign manager. I just filled in some random data and came up with:
https://sites.google.com/view/offrong-campaign/home.

It only took an hour or so. I am thinking it might make a good campaign manager. It's certainly easy to build. While not complete by any means, I think if provides a proof of concept.

General Discussion / Phaeselis: the City of Psionics
« Last post by EltonJ on Today at 07:00:32 PM »
I developed a world for Pathfinder (1e) and Ultimate Psionics.  It's set in the world of Alexander the Great, the Hellenic Age (after Alexander conquered the Persian Empire).  I'm going to put my other sci-fi on hold and I'm going to develop this further.  My wiki, the Phaeselis Wiki has more detail. I'm still planning on buying HARP SF and probably HARP Fantasy.

Question is: would HARP Fantasy and HARP SF handle it?

The blogs were more what I was looking for. I don't know, open source people just don't know how to present concise explanations of what things are for. I see that everywhere. Here's a directory of all our files! Here are all the plug-ins! Here's a log of recent changes! But no "this is the purpose of this project."

Anyway, ok, I can see the utility. It's not what I would use personally, because I find Markdown too constraining, but ok.

We had this thread about the matter, a decade ago…

Perhaps look at

and scroll down to the "Vaults" section.

I believe there is a method for swarm/pack type attacks in RM2, I have to research it.  I used it in sessions with gorecrows, rats, elemental rats, giant hornets, and even leeches. :)  (That's what happens when one decides to dive into a foetid pool of water in a haunted swamp to try to get some coins.)

The easiest approach is to assign the entire swarm (or some number of sub-swarms) a number of hits, but also set a limit on how much damage can be inflicted per round with a regular melee attack (e.g., one gorcrow). Also give it immunity to bleeding, stun, and injury penalties, on the principle that a single individual with those issues doesn't impair the swarm. Creative attack types might increase the maximum amount of damage if you think the attack can hit multiple bodies.

Is there a non-video place I can read specifically about the RPG applications? I want to understand what you're talking about, but I don't want to spend half an hour watching a video to figure out whether it's relevant.

RMC/RM2 / Combat with creatures that act as a group
« Last post by rsarres on Today at 11:40:54 AM »
Hi, friends.
I was unable to find the complete rules for combat with small creatures that attack as a group. I understand how the group of creature attack, creatures and treasures has a rule for that. For example, each group of 100 ants can create one attack of 0 TPi (Tiny Pinch) per round.

However, how does a PC attack a group of 100 ants, for example. It obviously cannot be one attack per ant.
Another example: A 30 gorcrows attack. Their attacks are grouped in trios. Can you swing your axe and try to brind down more than one gorcrow?


In a recent encounter, a PC was attacked by 10 leeches that sneaked into his armor while wandering a swamp. I ruled that the removal of each leech using his axe was a maneuver. If he wanted to remove more than one leech per round, the maneuver difficulty increased.

So, what are your thoughts.

I feel you, Bruce, unfortunately- ICE in all its instances has been very against allowing others involved in their growth.  Lots of factors have to be contemplated, and lots of carefully-worded documents have to be written.  And, with all steam working towards publishing RMU and HARP products in such a small team, I doubt there's much mental capacity left to work on such an answer; which is really too bad, as it will forever prevent RMU from getting anywhere outside of the die-hards.
