thanks so much for the tutorial. i downloaded this game a few weeks ago but was to nervous to try it. i actually did a test run a few days ago - i think i did it wrong. but watching your videos, i think i will give it another try.

Also, what determines the green/yellow abilities when it doesn't specify a number in the power source step? Kinda scratching my head over that part.

First time I played SCRPG, I made a magical hero who was a phantom in the Realm of Discord who kinda became a real girl due to the absolute nonsense in there when the Freedom Four had to go beat up on Gloomweaver again. She was called Figment, and her abilities revolved around lots of Illusions and suggestions. I especially had fun with the Whispers principle for her, ash she was still tied to Discord, though she ended up tied to another realm altogether due to the shenanigans in our game that involved a demon cult who ended up summoning another cosmos-quaking super-entity the DM invented for the game. I had a ton of fun with this character, especially as she was a reluctant mentor to the other character I tried out who wasn't quite as useful but still kinda fun who was a super super strong boy who got powered by a relic during his night job as a museum janitor protecting the place from a minor nuisance villain's mooks in the area.

I'll switch to Tales of the Valiant once support for the Black Flag system on Foundry VTT is out of beta, there is support for creating new subclasses on a website similar to DNDBeyond, and there is a good online character creator that supports these custom subclasses. Also, Foundry needs a module to import characters from this tool. I'm hoping this happens soon.

Thks is fantastic actually. My mom's a huge Survivor superfan who's always wanted to go on the show, so this would be a fun one shot to run with my parents (perhaps as a Power Couples special season of survivor). I wouldn't really be using their system per se but drawing inspiration from it would help springboard my own homebrew. I like the idea of Production meddling with things and if you watch episodes of the show they actually have fantastic "battle maps" with hundreds of skill challenges / obstacle courses and reward challenges that it would be a ton of fun to make. Thanks for sharing, it's got me started on a fantastic homebrew version of this that I'm excited to run for my parents to introduce them to TTRPGs :)

I really appreciate your walk though in character generation for this RPG. I have the PDF version of this game and have been debating whether to game master or play it. BattleTech RPG is way to complicated [or crunchy] in that it has a bunch of modifiers and such. Do you plan on doing actual play examples of this game? Just curious.

@SimonNeilScottАй бұрын
I'm really tempted to get this, especially as it's not expensive, but from all the videos I've watched as reviews, I get the impression the game doesn't come with any scenarios in the book to play through. That it's all randomized via dice rolls. Which is fine. But do any complimentary books exist which might contain preset aventures or campaigns? Similar to stargrave or frostgrave's complimentary books.
@knightsaberZ42Ай бұрын
There are no other supplements or adventures for this book because fundamentally, it is a journaling game. You are creating the skeleton of your story from the very beginning and then playing through the specifics. Rolls (in terms of skill checks) are very limited.

I felt that way as well. But because they each class has a lot of its clunkyness smoothed out. And spells like hunters mark and her were removed and balanced out to actual class buffs in addition to talents that allow you to crit on a 19 or 20...it's a much smoother and more enjoyable 5e. I felt the Same as you did initially but upon taking a deeper look I ended up changing my mind especially compared to dnd 2024

Similar to Pathfinder 1e and dnd 3.5e, since some people are just really familiar with a system and want to find a way to keep it and find support for it. I'm hoping KP updates it, and TotV 2e becomes it's own identity much like Pathfinder 2e
