SPECIAL NOTICE
Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded). However, there is no direct evidence that any such activity occurred. REGARDLESS, BE SURE TO CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS. And as is good practice, remember to never use the same password on more than one site. While performing housekeeping, we also decided to upgrade the forums.
This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

I downloaded the PDF, but haven't had time to dive into it yet. Its a quite impressive 300+ pages.

Ah, didn't know that. Thank you.

Quote from: Will;235731Maybe I'm weird, but I liked the cinematic version of Witchcraft (IE: Buffy RPG) better than the core system; I liked defining spell rituals in a very loose sense and setting them up, and the 'each cast is -1 to all further casts that day' thing rather than a detailed system.

I also liked the separation of big rituals vs. generally magic tricks sorcerers could do; it was reminiscent of a lot of fantasy fiction.
Is there a legal download of Cinematic Unisystem somewhere? Something like a quickstart. I'd like to have a look, but I'm not very interested in Buffy.

No clue, sorry. :/

If it helps, while I find the show quite entertaining, I have never had any interest in running it as an RPG. I just often like 'modern weird' games, so.

I'm not really hot on the dice mechanic of Unisystem, though.
This forum is great in that the moderators aren\'t jack-booted fascists.

Unfortunately, this forum is filled with total a-holes, including a bunch of rape culture enabling dillholes.

So embracing the \'no X is better than bad X,\' I\'m out of here. If you need to find me I\'m sure you can.
