Cool, however this is a community for tabletop roleplaying games.

That’s the Pathfinder death system, if I recall correctly.

huh

your entire profile is nitpicking people’s grammar

• In 4e, attributes are priced more consistently than 3e. DX and IQ are always 20 points to upgrade by 1, and ST and HT are always 10.

• 4e doesn’t have any kind of Random Characters.

• In 4e, HP is based on ST and FP is based on HT, not the other way around.

• In 4e, psionics is not skill-based and is relatively simpler.

• 4e doesn’t have language skills; instead, languages are separate, and there are four levels (None, Broken, Accented, Native) rather than the full 3d range.

• 4e Tech Levels are more consolidated and some things are different. As an example, modern day is TL8 (the digital age), rather than TL7.

• 4e has more damage types than 3e.

• Mental disadvantages in 4e use a ‘self-control roll’ instead of a Will roll.

Right in the book, there’s a starter solo adventure called “All In A Night’s Work”. For a whole table, I would recommend converting free oneshot 4e adventures like the other commenter.

i dont care ❤️

This was Second Edition from the 80’s.

Not all RPG rulebooks have one of their first play examples be a guy dying from falling off his camel

alright if you want a curse placed on your entire bloodline so badly

if only i had seen this a day earlier…

Opens fine in Connect

I have the opposite take. I fucking love detailed hard magic systems.

I am joking. “Rules as guidelines” is alive and well.

Ah yes 5e, a system notoriously known for rigid rules and leaving nothing to the DM.

If you want deeper rules for things, PF2e is good. If you want simpler and more story-focused rules, picking up Index Card RPG or Knave might be good.

Isn’t HackMaster very explicitly written to be funny? I’m avoiding the term ‘satire’ because HM 5th Edition is not really satire (HmB page 2)
