Gauging feelings on having a Technowizard add spells to a biomancy created lifing armor. Yay? Nay?

\What's another 2 years for a guy at that point? Plus the two year tour would be a) easier than 6 years of being a Raider's flunky and b) worth it just for the spells, forget the OCC abiities.

Pick up combat spells as they level up? Sure. Learn a few spells here and there? No problem. Go to ...

Ok, so I recently scored a copy of Mercenary adventures and had am amusing thought.

Temporal Warrior right off his 6/10/14 year apprenticeship enrolls in Combat mage school. What's another 2 years for a guy at that point? Plus the two year tour would be a) easier than 6 years of being a Raider's ...

Ok so I know I am responding to a long ago thread, but I can't find the statement in a thread that I saw the other night.

@Brandon Campbell, I have 2 questions for you. Do you have a map of the Wormwood eastern kingdoms, the thread I found had a broken link.
Second, what happened to the "4th ...

apologize for the threadromancy, but I'm taking another look at this, and looking at the wizard and raider too.

Input requested on the following.

1) the bonuses for starting higher level. Should the rewrite make it so a character taking the slow path gains the bonuses the starting in advance gets ...

Two disparate sources for autistic/Asperger's characters.

1) Parker, from Leverage - She was specifically written, IIRC, as Autistic/Asperger's. Natural for a city rat, but a crazy kind of works too.

2) Dr. K from (believe it or not) Power Rangers R.P.M. Olivia Tennent did an amazing job with her ...

every time i've seen this topic i've said the same things.


2:normalize E-clip power levels. this has always been a problem and it never should have been. some baseline rules laid out in-house for how e-clip charge is drained by various weapon types with accounting for range, power, and rapidity ...

Stop pretending that Coalition soldiers are heroes.


1) The thread is 'how would you change the setting.' Not "Stop changing the setting."

2) A Better educated, more defensive Coalition doesn't make them less bad guys by default. It does allow for more dynamic stories, much like other ...

Meh, I like the idea that the masses are not highly educated. Think of it as making sure the gameplay in the rural areas will be different than city settings. The pragmatic tyrant might think ignorance is cheaper than education, particularly when you have an educated core safely hidden away in ...

Wow, a loaded topic.

Ignoring game mechanical issues…

1) Coalition.

a. Education The Coalition needs to be more educated. Both because an educated populace can be manipulated as well as an uneducated one, and because it increases productivity. Education can also be used to build a common ...

there is a lot more to it, like how multi-action attacks work and some minor eratta work to deal with edge cases, but that's the basic gist of it. 13eowulf here on the forums developed it, and it works pretty well in balancing things.

Sounds interesting, do you have a link to it?

I've been looking at stealing Pathfinder 2's action system. X actions 1 reaction mechanic. Each action can be a move, attack, manipulate or other action. The reaction can be a traditional Palladium style dodge. "Parry/Doge" actions spent would add a penalty to people trying to hit you until your ...

I like the addition of Hth Commando. It fits the OCC much better. Are there any new bonuses to 10 and 14 years servitude?


I didn't think those needed a change to keep in line with the RUE. Though if I was tweaking the class, I'd say they get Auto-Dodge as a class at 5th level, rather than just ...

Why.....it puts the important part First.

Thanks for the suggestion, fixed it.

Forgot to add

"Additional spells and rituals of any magic level can be learned and or purchased at any time regardless of the character' s experience level"

Just to put an end to THAT.

Hope I'm doing this correctly, mods please move or delete as needed.

So... Looking at the temporal warrior and RUE, and thought I'd try my hand at updates and tweaks.

OCC Skills:

Language : Native Tongue at 98%.
Language: Other 2 of choice (+10%)
Literacy: Native Tongue (+30%)

Because of my own biases, if Africa was revisited, I'd love to see a "New Axum" in the Ethiopia area fighting the Phoenix empire.


I haven't done anything in that area; I believe that Ethiopia is inside the Phoenix Empire's borders, so portraying it as a rebellious province or secret/hidden ...

I detune anything new to fall into line with the original rules instead, but an OCC book could be interesting just to have them in one place, or a book/page reference number (even though i have those written down myself) with update changes only being listed


Sorry for the threadromancy ...
