Topic: Where do i begin

If you have contact information regarding any Brazilian publishers. You could always share it with ICE.  

Did you got my PM with this info?

Concerning the choice between RMC and RMFRP:
- RMRFP has currently more supplements
- RMC has currently only the 3 base books available, but I guess most of ICE's resources will support to this version in the next year and not RMFRP.

I'm new to Rolemaster as well, and I am a bit confused concerning the products. Are both RMFRP and RMC going to continue to be supported, or is RMC replacing RMFRP?

Also can the Pulp and Black Ops products be used with RMC or just FMFRP since it is an improvement on the RMSS?

[Temujin]

At this time, its likely that both branches will continue to be supported...  RMFRP is the latest edition, while RMC is revised/expanded/reprinted RM2, or "fan service" depending on your point of view.  As for Pulp and Black Ops, they are for RMSS/FRP.  They probably could be converted manually to RMC if you really want, but I would not necessarily recommend that to a new GM.  Juggling different editions of rules is not necessarily a good thing unless you have a lot of experience.

Roger that, thanks for the reply. I picked up my copy of RMFRP today. I figure I"ll start there.

Or as a friend of mine said - another character with similar skills as the last.  Hence Fenlarion IV, the Incredibly Unlucky.

Sometimes Rolemaster seems more like a complicated skill based Paranoia game.

Now that's funny. I wonder what a SM:Paranoia game would be like?

But easy - just switch the attack with the fumble tables.

I bet there'd be special crit charts, like Computer Reaction Criticals and the like...

Paranioa Plasma Crit Table;

A: 01-05  Vital piece of R&D gear is destroyed.  Explain this to the Computer, traitor!  If only personal gear is carried, then head is vaporized, proving youre a traitor since only traitors fail in their mission.
A: 06-00  You are vaporized.  Call in the clones.

B-E Plasma Crits: you do not have the clearance to reference these columns.  A Vulture squadron is being dispatched post hast to dispatch you post haste.  DIE COMMIE TRAITOR!

Man I loved that game.
