Duck and Cover

I don't believe I asked this, what is the current RPG system that is being used for the Fallout PnP on the Wiki? Is it just the simplified version of SPECIAL or is there additions of others or just a different system in general?

Hmm, sorry about that. I accidently did not stick in the "un" part of "steril". Please excuse this stupid mistake. I edited it to make sure it makes sense now.

I have them already downloaded. Why don't I just email them to you all nicely zipped up? THere are three "books" (Adobe PDF's) that come with it. 1 rule book and 2 source or campaign books. Just pm me if you are interested. If not, then look in The Pirates Bay. I tend to look into torrents...

I thought it was okay, but, I dunno. It did not seem to spark my interest too much. Ohh ya, I found a 4th edition main book for shadowrun, is this what I am looking for?

So, basically look for: Shadowrun system, or Corerules?

has anyone played with the Story teller system that whitewolf used?

Actually, it does seem interesting. Is there any way I can get some sort of core rules or at least some detailed information about it. I would like to look more into this Shadowrun rules system. As the saying goes "don't make an opinion about something until you know more about it". So, as...

i am a fan of the shadowrun skill system, though my absolute favourite in terms of playability is GURPS. also i don't understand this pip business. do pips 'buy' dice in some fashion, sort of like pools do in shadowrun? Firstly, I didn't hear of shadowrun till now. So if you could explain a bit of ...

I see your point. I should probably be more open minded to games that I have not much experiance with :drunk:. Well, your system or simplification of SPECIAL does seem reasonable. The system you are talking of, is it of your own making or is it from special or another (you probably already mentioned...

Hmm, maybe I explained it badly. Well, maybe this diagram will make things clear. But if it does not, tie me up and leave me in the wastes for rad scorpion food.

Ha, school tends to make one stray from "more important" things. Ya, having lots of dice would suck if you had to roll over thirty. But, like the fallout game, couldn’t you just make it only go so high before you just can't put any more into that skill (fallout had ridiculous 300%, ...

From the sounds of it, the simple system you may want to look at is the d6 system. I used to go to RPG sessions for Star Wars that used this. It seems like the SPECIAL system could possibly be converted into the d6 system. For one thing, you can have six to eight primary stats. Well SPECIAL has seve...

The new template does look very good, but as stated before, that orange just clashes with everything. Maybe something less bright and a little on the dull side.

I don't think Sean would have made a front cover like that, he actually does a pretty good job. But whomever did the front cover sure made it not look so good. It looks more so like a quick concept for a quick reference for something by far bigger. Looks like you, creeper, will have a hard time with...

Maybe kinda like pipboy formatt, or some sort of tec. sides, and of course pictures as well. But of course, this is the very rough stuff at the moment, they just probably wanted to show us the info in comparison to page design at the moment.

Well since it is going to be d20, it probably will. But that should not be too much of a problem. You could have different levels of tribals, and other levels of civilizations, but I am sure that has been briefly looked at before. I think that Super mutants (as well talked about) should have two gro...

Where? Gamma world? I prefered them older gamma world systems, though some of the battling was a little annoying.

Ahh, well sounds good. Would it be possible to kinda tell what you have done or what parts you are revising (like added or taken out, or equatoin change?)

Thats cool, did you just start or is it somewhere's inbetween?

I have no idea if this is the spot to post, though I think it is, but anywho, I am wondering if there is anyone who has or is make/making a revised system for combat and whatnot in the Special fallout system. If not, well, Maybe it would be good to start a thread (unless it was already made) about t...

Isn't it possible to email one of the guys making the d20 game saying to do something with the special too or instead? If not, maybe we can sign a petition stating what we think would be a good system. Who knows, maybe if enough people are wanting the special system (revised a bit ofcourse), then it...
