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.

The new Runequest is apparently supposed to be "Open source"; kind of a joke given that Mongoose robbed the system directly from Chaosium in the first place.

In any case, the System Reference Doc is here:

In case any are interested...

Its also interesting that Mongoose are now turning their back on OGL and D20 only products they used to, despite maintaining a D20 only policy on new products.

Both formats have their uses.  Anyone have comments on the actual contents of the document?  I can't unzip the darn thing until I get home.

Can't see that many changes to older BRP incarnations, and ther eare no modern rules so far.

Well, they're all .docs, so it shouldn't be long before someone puts them in PDF or HTML.

I just put a PDF together right now. It's the first time I've tried it out, so I won't mind any criticisms or passing it over if a better one comes along.

Here's the Link
Running: Dogs of WAR - Beer & Pretzels & Bullets
Planning to Run: Godbound or Stars Without Number
Playing: Star Wars D20 Rev.

See attached.

I did a quick and dirty convert from DOC to PDF.  I combined all seperate doc files into one PDF.


I guess as I expected, it looks really similar to Chaosium BRP.  Anyone know what the differences are?...I'll have to do a comparison later...

Ah well...I see JamesV beat me to the punch...I'll get you next time JamesV!!!!

Whew, that's a relief. The bookmarks are nice, aren't they? I did everything with an eye toward preserving the original doc, so it does come in at a kinda hefty 2MB. If you want something quicker, rcsample's doc is nice.
